Multi-page forms

Typical situations where the form needs to consist of more than one page are:

• the form contains a very large number of fields or sections
• the set of fields to be completed depends on the respondent's previous answers (i.e. a branching form)
• both of the above

A summary of settings for each of the above situations is provided below.

Forms with a very large number of fields - a summary

1. An umbrella folder to contain all parts of the form. Its default view set to the first page/form folder.
2. One form folder for each 'page' of the form.
3. Exclude all but first form folder from the navigation.
4. Set up all but last form folder in a similar manner.
5. Add form fields to each form folder as required.
6. Add hidden replica fields from each preceding page to the next.
7. Set the next page to which each page leads to after it is 'submitted', via the Custom Success Action override feature.
8. Configure the form output using the last form folder.

Branching forms - a summary

1. An umbrella folder to contain all parts of the form. Its default view set to the first page/form folder.
2. If necessary, sub-umbrella folders each containing a major branch of pages.
3. Set up the required form folders and add their form fields.
4. Configure the brancing connections via a Selection Field object and the Custom Success Action override feature.
5. Configure the form output for each branch.

This will simply be a combination of the above settings according to the particular requirements of the form.
