You can edit a Contact Form that you are using, even if it is already being used by your contacts.

Note

If you remove a field from a Contact Form which is in use, it will remove the data entered for the individual contacts who had data in that specific field.

If you want the location of your contacts to be able to be displayed on a map, use the standard Address field which is automatically included on your Contact Form
