If this is something you are looking for now, all I can suggest is you would need to discuss it with a WordPress/PHP developer.</p> <p>Edit: Another plugin you may want to take a look at is the <a href="https://github.com/soulseekah/Gravity-Forms-Saved-Forms-Addon" rel="nofollow">Gravity Forms Saved Forms Add-On</a>, I don't know much about it but it may be worth a look. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-handle-long-forms#post-360483 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:08:12 +0000 Jradar 360483@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>i have a very long form, 5 pages with each page being very long itself</p> <p>is there a best practice for how to handle 'form fatigue' and saving long forms if the user leaves for some reason or their browser crashes? </p> <p>i do have the data persistence plugin ... but it does not auto save -&gt; which would be ideal</p> <p>how do people handle this? </p> <p>i've tried to monkey with the data-persistence plugin, but i'm not skilled enough to write code myself of that level</p> <p>and now i've grabbed the 'next button' code and put that in html in various places on the site but changed it's name to 'save now' (this seems to submit and save form content, except it jumps the person to the next page, which i'd like to fix)</p> <p>there must be a better way?? </p>
