Form container with more than one submit button

Ask us anything How do I?
1

Hi,

I have a form in which I would like to add 3 options to submit -

Submit and Add Other Details
Submit and New
Submit and Close.

How would I test to see which button was selected if there is only 1 official button and 1 workflow?

Thanks
Steve

Sounds like you’d probably want to build a custom form using individual elements instead of just the basic form card. WeWeb gives you access to the individual components to build your own, and then you can throw in three buttons with your different workflows attached to each to run through your required logic. Takes more work, but should be doable from what I can see.

WeWeb gives this advice on creating workflows for buttons in a form -

That looks like you’re still trying to use the pre-built form container instead of using a blank container and pulling in all the seperate form elements and then your three buttons. To get three different sets of logic working, ultimately you’ll need the workflows on the individual buttons, because workflows operate on an “on click” “on change”, etc, method.
