About This Feature

Overview

Gender is used in the Poll section of a smart form to set and manage gender-related options. It is one of the basic setup items in the poll creation flow. After the setup is complete, you can preview the form result and save the current configuration.

Core tasks include:

Open the Gender setup entry from the form editor and the Poll section.
Edit Gender-related settings in the editing panel.
Preview and save the result after confirming the display effect.

This feature is useful for surveys, event registration forms, and information collection scenarios where a standard identity option is needed for later viewing and analysis.

Compared with WPS: It is oriented toward general polls and meeting collection rather than a dedicated gender-option setup entry.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Gender is a practical fit for users who are already building poll content inside a smart form and want a direct setup path for a standard gender option. Other products also support forms or polls, but they are more focused on general surveys, database-backed collection, or PDF form editing.
