# do not submit on “Enter”

 * I’m replacing a spreadsheet with a forminator form, and the people using the 
   spreadsheet are used to pressing “Enter” to move to the next cell.
   In forminator
   when you press “Enter” it submits the form.I could have all the fields be required,
   so they can’t submit it accidentally with “Enter”, but not all the fields are
   required, so that’s a no-go.Is there an alternative, to remove the focus from
   the submit button?

 * Hi [@aristosv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aristosv/)
 * I hope you are doing well today.
 * Please note that by default, this is not possible, and this will be outside the
   scope of support to provide such a thing. For that, you’ll need to hire a developer
   to provide the required custom code for you. WordPress provides a jobs directory
   here [https://jobs.wordpress.net/](https://jobs.wordpress.net/). If you need 
   further advice about it, feel free to email `wpsupport@incsub.com`.
