Multi-page forms

Organize your long forms and complex surveys with page breaks, progress bars, and conditional pages.

Adding page breaks

You can split any form into multiple pages by adding a Page Break field wherever you want a new page to start.

Quick Tip

Page breaks cannot be added within sections or repeating sections/tables.

To add a page break:

  1. In the sidebar, hover over your form name and click Build Form.

  2. Click into any empty placeholder on your form to open the Add Field menu.

  3. Under the Layout section, select Page Break.
    Find the Page Break field in the Layout section in the Add Field menu.

  4. Drag the Page Break field onto your form at the point where you want the new page to begin.

  5. In the Page Break field settings, optionally customize the Back and Next button text and set conditions for when the next page appears. For example, you may want to show the next page only based on the answer to a previous field. To manage options that apply to all pages, like the progress bar, see Form settings.

Everything above the page break appears on one page, and everything below it moves to the next page. Repeat these steps to add more pages.

To delete a page break, select the Page Break field and press Delete.

Field settings - Page Break

To access the Field Settings for page break, add a new Page Break field or click on an existing Next button on your form.

How to access Page break settings.

  • Next Button Text – Enter text here that you’d like to appear on the button that takes the user to the next page of the form. This can be set on a page-by-page basis.
  • Show Next Page – Use this setting to determine when the next page should be accessible. Select “When” to conditionally show the next page based on answers entered into previous fields. Or, select “For Roles” to select which role(s) are allowed to access this page.

Back Button settings

You can access Back Button Settings by clicking on the Back button at the bottom of the builder canvas that appears after adding a Page Break field.

Back Button settings.

  • Show Back Button – Check this box to give users the option to return to the previous page, and enter the text that you’d like to appear on the button. This can be set on a page-by-page basis.

Form settings

When a page break is added to your form, a progress bar, page numbers, and back buttons are automatically added to your form. You can edit the settings for these features in Form Settings.

How to edit form settings.

  • Progress Bar – Choose from three options for displaying the user’s progress through your form.
    • Steps
    • Bar
    • None: You can also choose to hide the progress bar. Generally, we do not recommend this option for usability purposes.
  • Show Page Titles – Uncheck this box to hide titles for each page of your form. If shown, you can customize these page titles to describe the content of that page or show the page number.
  • Display page numbers in footer – Uncheck this box to hide the page numbers displayed at the bottom of each page.
