   Hello,
   I have an extremely long form (over 500 fields).
   It is long because the user has the option for adding up to 12 guests and each guest has over 20 fields.

   I have the form broken into a couple pages and it loads fine in the browser.
   On page 2 the first question is how many guests they want to add and then there is a pulldown with the number 1-12.

   I am trying to add the conditional logic that if the number is 1 only show the 20 fields for guest 1.
   If it is 2 then show the fields for guests 1 and 2, if it is 3 then show 1, 2 and 3, etc...

   So all together there is logic for almost 300 fields.
   About 1/2 way through adding the logic the logic form started to get extremely slow (I would save and reopen after every couple of changes so I didn't loose anything). And allot of the form wouldn't even load until I let it sit for a minute or 2. And then when testing my form all of the logic stopped working.

   Any ideas on how I can fix this?
   Is it just because my form is so extremely long?
   If so would it be better to just enter the logic directly in the database and bypass the form entry?
   If so what database would I use and how to I match up my form fields to make that work?

   Thank you for your help.

   I think I found the issue, or am at least on the right track.

   Is there a limit to the number of Logic parameters you can have?
   I have gotten to a point that when I add a new field to the logic and then the parameters for that field and click save and then go back into the logic form it just shows the added field but the logic is blank.

   Did I hit a max level?
   If so is there a way to increase it?

   I found this:

   And implemented that fix but it still is not working.

   I was able to resolve this issue.
   It looks like it was a limitation on IE/Chrome and the server.

   If others are experiencing the same issue (conditional logic form with allot of parameters is extremely/painfully slow) here is the fix.

   Set your server parameters as outlined here:
   http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/drop-down-list-limit?replies=15#post-17438

   And use Firefox to make the changes.

   Chrome and IE were slow/kept crashing.
   But once I made the server changes and used Firefox it loads right away.
   I have a form with over 600 fields and most of them have logic and the conditional logic page now works.

   Thanks
