Prevent hyperlinks

Forms creates hyperlinks for email addresses and url. How to stop that? It is annoying.

  • There isn't a built-in option to disable this behavior. However, here are a couple of workarounds you can try:

    1. Use Plain Text: Instead of entering the email address or URL directly, you can replace certain characters with text:
      • Replace "@" with "[at]" in email addresses (e.g., "example[at]domain.com").
      • Replace "." with "[dot]" in URLs (e.g., "www[dot]example[dot]com").
    2. Embed in Images or Text: If you're using Forms for quizzes or surveys, you can embed the information in an image or provide it as plain text in a description field.
