How do you create a multi-step form in Mendix for user sign-ups?
0
I'm working on building a multi-step form in Mendix to guide users through a sign-up process. I want each step to capture different user information and allow users to navigate back and forth between steps without losing the data they entered. Ideally, I would like to implement the following: Multiple pages or steps: Each step should have its own page with form inputs (e.g., personal details, address, preferences). Navigation controls: Buttons to move to the next step or go back to the previous step, while preserving data. Progress indicator: A visual indicator to show the user their current progress in the form. Data persistence: Ensure that the data from each step is saved (but not submitted) until the final step when the user completes the form. Validation: Form validation at each step, ensuring users can’t proceed without completing mandatory fields. Thanks -Aidan

Hello Aidan,
Multiple pages or steps: Each step should have its own page with form inputs (e.g., personal details, address, preferences). - Create multiple pages or Tab container having different different tabs having these all inputs
Navigation controls: Buttons to move to the next step or go back to the previous step, while preserving data.- If multiple pages then add next and back button for upcoming page navigation create simple microflows for show pages or Tab container user Tab Switch
Progress indicator: A visual indicator to show the user their current progress in the form.- Use widget following widgets to show progress Progress Bar or Scroll Progress Indicator
Data persistence: Ensure that the data from each step is saved (but not submitted) until the final step when the user completes the form. - So commit objects at the final save only
Validation: Form validation at each step, ensuring users can’t proceed without completing mandatory fields. - Now with Mendix 10 validation are more easy Validation Assist
