The custom multi-step form functionality in Webflow is a powerful feature that allows you to create forms with multiple steps or pages. This functionality goes beyond the basic single-page forms and provides a more user-friendly and seamless form filling experience. Here are some added functionalities of the custom multi-step form in Webflow:
1. Step-based form progression: With the multi-step form, you can break down a long form into multiple steps or pages. This helps to reduce form overwhelm and makes it easier for users to complete the form. Users can navigate forward and backward through the steps, allowing them to review and edit their inputs before submitting the form.
2. Progress indicators: You can add progress indicators in your multi-step form to show users how far they have progressed and how many steps are remaining. This helps users understand their position in the form-filling process and encourages them to complete the form.
3. Conditional logic: Webflow's multi-step form allows you to incorporate conditional logic based on user inputs. You can show or hide form fields or even entire steps based on the user's previous selections or inputs. This enables you to create dynamic forms that adapt to the user's input, providing a personalized form experience.
4. Validation and error handling: The multi-step form also includes form field validation and error handling capabilities. You can set up validation rules for each field, ensuring that the user's input meets the required criteria. If there are errors in any step, you can display error messages and prevent the user from progressing until the errors are resolved.
