Sub form

    Hi, is there any chance a sub form feature is in the works?

    I've created a job application form and HR wants the past 10 years of employment so I need to give users the ability to keep adding jobs.

    Right now I'm duplicating a single item at a time, but when I save it scrambles the order of the items - I'm sure this is because of how many items there are ( just the work history alone is 12 items x 10 pages).

    If there's no plans for sub forms, is there a way i can get this to actually save my changes in the order they are instead of throwing the items all over the form?

    Thanks,
    Dan

    I'm afraid we don't have any plan to do sub forms yet. Sorry.
    Regarding the order issue, is this always happened all the time? Can you let me know what is your browser version please?

    Hi yuniar, sorry - i got lost down a rabbit trail. I turned on permanent delete and rebuilt the form from scratch. This helped me greatly - the form was easily 300 fields so every time i deleted an item it was still saved in there. Perhaps checking if there is any data in the database could be a good option to determine whether to permanently delete fields from the table might be good for initial creation.

    I use Chrome.

    Thanks!

    Dan - thank you for that. It's a great idea! I'll include it within our next update.
