Separating Forms into Pages

Jeff McFarland

Since form elements have to be stacked on top of each other, is it possible to separate out form elements into multiple pages of the same form? Maybe even skip a page based off of user selections? This would help reduce the length of a form.

Thank you!

Hi @Jeff McFarland

You could use Conditional Logic to only show what is relevant.

More info.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Sorry...That does not help. I have a lot of questions that would make the form very long because form elements have to be stacked on top of each other. So, using conditional logic AND "Paging", I think I could make Smartsheets work. But I'm asking if paging is possible?

@Jeff McFarland

Ok.

I developed a solution using two forms (or the same form by using conditional logic) that can be used to submit the main information and then the other information on a new row for each submission after the first.

Would that work/help? (maybe in combination with the conditional logic)??

Hi Andree,

It sounds like Paging is not available and your description sounds like a work around? I would be interested in viewing your solution though. Is it possible to view your solution described above?

@Jeff McFarland

Apologies, I'm so used to coming up with workarounds that I didn't answer your questions.

Unfortunately, there isn't a paging feature in forms now, but it's an excellent idea!

What about the solution you referred to? Is that something I can look at?
