    Hi RightHome,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I checked your form, and I noticed that you have configured your Form Calculation formula incorrectly. If you wish to calculate the total of the question fields, you need to set the same formula as shown in the screenshot below:

    Here's how to do it:

    1. In Form Builder, click on the Wand icon to open Form Calculation Settings.
    2. Next, click on the Add Field button, then add all your question fields.
    3. Lastly, click on Save.

    What I am seeing once I test the form is "0" in the total field.

    Hi RightHome,

    The calculation is not working as expected because there's an extra addition sign in your Form Calculation widget. Take a look at the screenshot below:

    If you removed the extra addition sign, your form should work as expected.

    Let us know if you need any more help.
