Hi,  
On my staging area I 'm developing a new form (started about 2 weeks ago and today I’ve picked this up again), however I have no control about fields, nor adding new fields.

Then I’ve tried a new, blank, form. I try to use some fields put they appear as little boxes and I can’t do anything with them ☹

I’m unable to replicate the issue in a default WordPress installation. That suggests it is something specific to your site.

I recommend performing a conflict test. Due to the nature of the issue, the conflict test should be performed manually following the steps described here: [https://docs.gravityforms.com/testing-for-a-themeplugin-conflict/](https://docs.gravityforms.com/testing-for-a-themeplugin-conflict/)

Note that for a valid conflict test, the first test must be done **with**  **only Gravity Forms enabled.** All other plugins should be **disabled**  **,** and a **default WordPress theme** without custom code should be used (e.g. Twenty Twenty-One).

If you don’t feel comfortable doing this in the live site, try creating a staging clone or sandbox setup for testing.
