Group Fields

    Is it possible to group fields and then display several copies of them?

    I am trying to set up a registration form in which you should be able to select how many individuals you are registering (1 to 5). Then, I need to collect information about each individual being registered.

    I could manually copy and paste each field and then manually set conditional logic statements to display each group of fields depending upon a drop down asking how many individuals are being registered... LOTS OF WORK!

    If I was programming this plugin, I would allow to create custom groups (very much like the address field) and then we could treat each of those as a whole. That would make work flow much faster. Another nice feature would be to create "Containers" so that you can move containers around the form and everything inside that container would move with it.

    Is this possible at this point?

  2. It's not possible at this time. We've already discussed adding this kind of functionality and realize it will be a big time saver in instances like yours. I'm sure it will make a future release along with some other new features.

  3. I second that request, and have also put in a suggestion for this feature as well.

    Keep up the great work!

  6. Uh, since you guys have been working on is since 2010, is there any chance it'll ship soon? :- )

    I''m trying to replicate a FormAssembly form that has a Replicatable Section, and I'd really like that in GF... Adds a lot of power for extensible forms.

  7. ARG, this is really really BAD.

    I just tried to copy and paste sections that repeat using a simple notepad type editor - - "group selected the section (copy/paste)" and then tried to manually change the id's to not yet used Id numbers - but the conditional codes within the different elements are so many that i could not follow this manually on my screen.

    Guys this really is needed.

    We all make huge forms, not just simple contact forms. This is another shocker that this premium plugin does not have this feature either. Its shocking. I will have to PRINT this (xml) out - so i can see it all in one view. Arg Arg Arg!
