Lead Web Form - Hidden Fields causing error with Approved Leads

Lead Web Form - Hidden Fields causing error with Approved Leads

  • I have a webform (image1) where I am collecting basic contact information.
  • I have three picklist fields that I am including on the form and hiding them trying to populate a value based on the form that's being submitted.
  • I have "Approved" leads enabled on the form submission also.
  • When I try to add all 3 of the hidden fields I am clicking on the fields option and setting a default value from the picklist.
  • When I try to save the form, I get a grey over layer on the screen with a contact zoho email submit form below ...but can't get to it.

I have tried the following:

  • 3 different browsers (after clearing cache and cookies)
  • Tried only using 1-2 various different of the 3 hidden fields.
  • Ensured no default set on the field setting


Are there some kind of rules with hidden fields and setting default values? Known bug?
