titleBest Practice

Avoiding possible inconsistency in forms: 

When creating a form using Form Fields each field is reflected with a unique ID in the database. This unique ID is tied with this field, regardless of changes made in Form Builder afterwards. 
This means that editing a field in a form that is already published may lead to possible inconsistency of data provided by viewers. 
For example: If you decide to gather a wider range of information from viewers, using a form that consist of many Form Fields is the best idea. However, after some time, it may seem reasonable to re-use one of the fields by changing its name and to collect information that requires the same field type. Let's say the field Name is renamed to Full Name in order to make it more clear for viewers and collect more accurate data. What happens here is that all entries from field's old version and all entries from updated field are now saved under the same unique ID. 

Best practice is to remove the old field and create a new one with a new unique ID if there is a risk of inconsistency.
