I've created a Nintex form for a SharePoint 2019 list and published it.  However, when I click on +New to create a new list item, the panel opens on the right side of the list and the fields don't reflect the Nintex form.  

How do I get the SharePoint list to use the Nintex form?  Do I need to change something in the list's settings?

How did you create the Nintex form? Did you go to List- Nintex Forms-Customize the Form to either Clasis or responsive?

Yes, went to List, Nintex Forms, tried it the first time with Responsive, then tried using Classic.  I have the same result either way.

Hi,
Can you provide a screen shot of the issue?
Sounds like you are using modern view, do you see the same issue in classic view?

I have the same issue in modern and classic view.  Here's form I created followed by what opens in classic and modern views:

The form that opens has fields I no longer need to complete and is missing new fields.

The forms that are being displayed are default SharePoint forms.
You are able to create different forms for different content types. Are you sure you have published the for for the content type that is being used when you click new?

This list only has one content type: Item.  I've tried changing the settings for "Allow management of content types?" from Yes to No, and have the same result either way.  Could the issue be that the Form Options is set to "Customize the current form using MIcrosoft Infopath"?

No this is not the issue.
If you create a new list with just the default "item" content type and then create and publish a form does that work?

Yes, the form works correctly for a new list.

Ok,
So there seem to be an issue with that particular list then.

Seems so. I was hoping I wouldn't have to re-create the list, but may have to.

@PEnstrom ......What if you:

 

  1. Export the Nintex form first, delete the form and then try to import again?
  2. Export the form first, delete the form, save the list as template and create a new list using that template and then import the Nintex form again?
