Important This page documents TinyMCE 7. For new projects, Tiny recommends using the latest, most up-to-date version. [See TinyMCE 8 documentation](../../latest/editor-save-and-submit/).
# Editor save and submit options

## HTML forms options

### `hidden_input`

The **hidden_input** option allows the auto-generation of hidden input fields to be disabled for inline editing elements. By default all inline editors have a hidden input element in which content gets saved when an `editor.save()` or `tinymce.triggerSave()` is executed.

The **hidden_input** option can be disabled if you don’t need these controls.

**Type:** `Boolean`

**Default value:** `true`

**Possible values:** `true`, `false`

#### Example: using `hidden_input`

```js
tinymce.init({
  selector: 'div',  // change this value according to your HTML
  inline: true,
  hidden_input: false
});
```

## Adding save functionality to the editor

TinyMCE can be configured to allow users to save the editor content. For information on configuring the user saving, see: [The Save plugin](../save/).

## Autosaving the editor content

TinyMCE can be configured to automatically save the editor content. For information on configuring the automatic saving, see: [The Autosave plugin](../autosave/).
