You can pre-populate values in the next form by passing the values with the query string.

If you are on page two of a multipage form, the form has already been rendered in its entirety.</p> <p>Is step two to narrow down the choices made in step one? So, of the selections made on page one, you show all of them on page two, and the visitor gets to pick some of those? And then what happens? Why are there 5 paragraph fields? Are there 5 paragraphs for each checkbox choice?</p> <p>Do you have any of this online now? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/multi-page-form-gform_field_choices#post-132446 Sat, 26 Jan 2013 11:52:42 +0000 goldenblount 132446@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I need to create a form that has 3 pages:</p> <p>Page 1: has a list of items with checkboxes</p> <p>Page 2: generated list of checkboxes containing only the items that were selected on page 1</p> <p>Page 3: 5 Paragraph Fields labeled with the selected items on page 2</p> <p>I want to use the gform_fields_choices to create the list on page 2 by accessing the selected items from page 1 (Is this possible and if so are there any examples of code doing something like this)</p> <p>If I can do page 2 then I assume I can do page three with similar logic from page 2 using the gform_field_input or gform_field_content filters</p> <p>Any advice? </p>
