Curiosity about extensive forms

BNDragon 27 Jan, 2015
Hello,

I have a question, I am sorry if I am not doing the right place, but it seemed the correct location.

Well, I created a form to sign, is an extremely extensive form (not exactly in fields, but in actions) and thought I would not need to create any of this size.
The truth is my edit form is almost twice the size. It becomes very confusing.

My question is: is it possible to divide the form (fields and actions) and then import into another form?

For example, my profile edit form has a part to social networks, one for general data and other data for specific data derived from the user of his group. The idea was to have three forms and then import and make everyone work together.

Thanks for listening,
BN

Hi BN,

Hmmm . . . I don't think so. When I've had to do this I have ended up copying and pasting between browser windows. I guess that it might be possible to make three copies and delete the unwanted parts from each of them . . . that might be worth trying out.

In CFv4 you could sometimes edit forms by working directly on the database tables. I don't think that this is possible with CFv5 though :-(

PS Thank you for removing the 'flappy' image.

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your reply,
That's sad :/ I was hoping that would be some how to do it.

It can be a feature to add some day.🙂

Thanks once more Bob,
BN
