Hi,
So can you create Multi-form pages or not on WFB...IF so, where can i find the details?....thanks John

No John, CC seem to have lost interest in updating this software; you cannot even attach anything to an auto response email either. They seem to have got side tracked on all this "responsive" stuff. :rolleyes:

Hi Peter,
CC hasn't been sidetracked. The formbuilder is responsive so that was the first app CC rolled out to meet modern web needs and requirements. The form builder has had several updates but it performs all the functions needed for a great website form. I can't imagine how long it would take to do some of the forms I make if I had to had code them all. There are work arounds to get the needed multipage setup. :)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Hi Eric,
Do you know the specific date that you are going to release Multipage for WFB?

I don't work for CC but you can make it a suggestion in the suggestion thread.

Because WFB stores its data in a session variable, you can use it for multi-page forms, but it requires some manual workarounds.

Did you know that Web Form Builder can be used for both simple and complicated forms and that it's not limited to the default fonts and buttons? Take a look at a form we developed for WindowTinting.com.

Brian,
Is there a documentation showing that?

I found out online that "multi-page forms" been asked since 2012 and there must be some difficulty implementing that on CC side.

I don't believe there is documentation on it. It is not built into WFB yet. However, I am working on an adaptation that might work. I'll let you know, once I experiment a bit more.

There's a few ways around this. Jquery to split a long form and as Brian has pointed out the session variables and forwarding to the next page. I did a Jquery split when form builder first came out and I might be able to find that file.

Multi-page forms have been on the 'Coming Soon' list since about the time WFB was released in 2013. Multi-page is one of the reasons I chipped into using WFP because a client wanted multi-page forms for their site...yet, it's never materialized and just hangs on that 'coming soon' list like a tease. I eventually had to find another solution for the client. It's been about a year or so since WFB was updated and I'm hoping they finally incorporate multi-page into the next release.

If you can post how to do this with jq, I'd like to see.

Thanks.
