Repeater area: Keep first entry

pa

Hi

I did have a look at your demo repeater form.

There it's possible to add more "Guests" and remove them as well.

Is there a way to prevent removing the first entry "Guest 1"?

Users should only be able to remove additional "Guest", but not the first one.

Thanks.

Hi Patrick,

The simplest way to do this might be to add guest 1 to the main form and use the repeater from guests 2 . . . and on. It's probably possible to add custom JavaScript to stop the first one being deleted but that might be ore complicated to do.

Hi Bob

Thank you.

Disadvantage would be, that there are two Guests on form load, instead of just one.

But at least it would not be possible to remove first guest.

Hi Patrick,

Can you hide the whole multiplier until the user checks an Add more Guests checkbox?

Hi Bob

Unfortunately the Repeater area has no "Events" tab, so I can't do that.

You can hide the repeater with an event in the checkbox with target id as the repeater area id
