Form Builder and Multi-page forms saving data along the way - OnlyOneN - Feb 28th, 2012

Hello,

I'm really excited about integrating the form builder in my development process and am curious if the functionality can be customized.

I create event registration sites that have all the attendees pre-loaded into the formtools database. Users log in and "update" their record by stepping through the multi-page forms, with a confirmation and thank-you page at the end.

When they update / add information to each page (eg. arrival / departure dates, meal preferences, travel information, etc.) and click submit at the bottom, that data is updated in the formtools database. So, they never lose anything they've typed in as long as they click submit at the bottom of the page.

My experience with the form builder so far is this: the database gets populated only after the final submit button is clicked. Is there a way to change this so that after each page the data gets stored in the database?

Thanks Ben and crew for your great work on this.

Regards,
Glen

OK, nevermind... the data is there, but is just not shown in the admin interface unless it's "finalized". It's been so long since I've used formtools in this fashion, I've forgotten how it works!

Carry on... nothing to see here.

Haha, thanks Glen. I toyed with the idea of adding a setting to control whether or not the form submissions would get marked as finalized after the first page was submitted (so even incomplete forms would show up in the FT UI) but decided against it. In retrospect, I can't remember why I decided that...

Would that be useful, do you think? Or is it okay as it is?

Ben,

I think it's OK as is... I usually import my registrants information, and their records are already marked as "finalized". So, it won't make much of a difference for me.

I've got other questions, so look for another post from me soon.

Thanks,
Glen
