Do you need a form that lets users add multiple fields to the same section? You can - with WordPress dynamic form fields by Formidable Forms!
Perhaps you work with families and need forms where users can add each family member’s details. Maybe you're looking to submit details of a sports team registration or list past work history and qualifications for a job application form. In all of these cases, you need a tool that lets you submit as many details as you want easily.
If you don't have a specific feature that allows you to do this, things can get a bit messy. You could end up with multiple different sections for the same question, making the form longer than it needs to be. Even if you build a certain number of fields you think the user will need, this could also be very problematic if those estimates are off.
When problems like this arise, you might end up having to contact the user, or vice versa, to fix the issue. All this does is cost everyone time, and it doesn't leave your users with a great impression.
There is a much simpler, cleaner solution: repeating fields.
What are Repeaters and what do they offer?
Repeaters allow you to dynamically add multiple form fields whenever needed. These are also called WordPress form dynamic fields. The name says it all: these fields appear dynamically when you need them.
By giving users the option to add in more fields and details, you can reduce the clutter and clunky form process that comes without repeaters.
Display just one section with all the fields you need. But users can duplicate the fields again and again. More details below.
Versatile input types
Do you want your users to type text or click buttons in repeater fields? These dynamically added repeat layouts support text field inputs and user-clicks on elements. No worries with input types!
Put your users at the controls
Formidable Forms gives your users the ultimate control over the rows a repeater would produce. There is an add and a delete button to take care of this. Users can add as many fields or groups of fields as they need. You can also limit this number.
Export and import Repeaters
If you’ve been wondering, you can export and import form elements with content fields, entries, etc. Formidable Forms Repeater supports CSV and XML file types for export and import operations. Choose which format suits the best for your specific purpose.
Repeater Actions
Signing-up a lot of people at once? Not only can repeater fields make the sign-ups easier, but you can send an email to each person that includes all the other form info but just their info from the repeater field. And go beyond sending an email; our repeater action works with HubSpot, Contant Contact, SalesForce, MailChimp, APIs, Google Sheets and more!
No coding experience necessary
You don’t need to know coding to use Formidable Forms Repeater. Simply drag and drop the fields and configure your way. If you’re familiar with some CSS and HTML code stuff, that would be a plus.
And yes, the repeaters are searchable with the Formidable search tool. You can see the knowledgebase or contact us for more information.
This feature is included in the Formidable Basic plan and higher.
