How the Skip button works, and how to gate a landing page with a linked form: display style, display timing, expiry rules, and per-visitor display settings.
Skip Button is one of the non-question blocks available from the Add a block picker (alongside Form Header and Submit Button). Like those two, it can only be added once per form.
The Contact form template ships with a Skip Button block already on the canvas by default
The Blank form template does not include one — add it yourself from the block picker if you want it
To remove Skip entirely, select the block in the BLOCKS list and delete it, the same way you’d delete a question block
Selecting the block shows its Content tab with three fields — Button label (default: “Skip”), Icon, and Icon position — plus a Design tab for styling it.

Respondents who tap Skip move past the form without submitting an answer — their attempt is recorded as Skipped in the response viewer rather than counted as a completed response.
A form only starts collecting responses once it’s linked to a QR Code, and that link is configured from the QR Code’s own settings — not from the form builder.
1
Open Capture Leads
Open a QR Code and go to its Settings tab. Under Tracking & Analytics, turn on Capture Leads.Two options appear: Capture using Forms (marked Recommended) and Use Existing Lead List (marked deprecated, with a note suggesting migration to Forms).

2
Link a form
With Capture using Forms selected, click Link Form…. This opens the Link Form panel, where you choose which form to attach and how it’s gated.
3
Choose the form display setting
Pick how the form appears over your landing page:
Page Takeover — the form replaces the whole page
Modal Popup — the form appears in a centered dialog over the page
Slide-in Panel — the form slides in from the edge of the screen
Modal Popup and Slide-in Panel need a Scanova Landing Page. On a redirect-only QR Code — a Website URL Quick Code, for instance — both are disabled and only Page Takeover is available. The panel says so inline when it applies.

Choose display timing
Under Display Timing, choose Show Immediately (the form appears right after the QR Code is scanned) or Time Delay (show the form after a delay, in seconds).
Time Delay also needs a Scanova Landing Page, since there is no page to delay on a redirect-only QR Code. It is disabled in that case, leaving Show Immediately.
5
Configure Advanced Settings (optional)
Expand Advanced Settings for three additional gates, each behind its own toggle:
Form Expiry Rules — stop showing the form to everyone once a limit is reached. Choose Expiry by lead count (a numeric threshold) or Expiry by date & time.
User-Based Display Rule — control repeat visibility per visitor (only one option can be active at a time)
Match QR Code Theme — show the form using the QR Code’s own theme instead of a default style
Advanced form-gating settings: expiry rules, user-based display, and theme matching
6
Save the link
Click Link Form at the bottom of the panel. (Re-opening the link later shows the same options under the heading Manage Form Settings, with a Save Changes button.) The QR Code’s Capture Leads section collapses back to show the link as Active, and the form’s own Linked QR Codes tab (see Viewing & exporting responses) lists the QR Code you just linked.
A form can be linked to more than one QR Code. Manage all of a form’s links from its own Linked QR Codes tab, or unlink a single QR Code from that QR Code’s own Capture Leads settings.
