I haven't found a resource better than you. Thanks for bringing us all along.

A very nice introduction to the new feature and I completely agree regarding adding conditional logic. Hopefully this will be implemented in the near future. I really enjoy your tutorials and I have learned a lot from just watching them. I also have some of them on "speed dial" to refresh my memory. Thanks, Paul!

Thanks Paul! I agree with you, all it's missing is conditional logic.

I totally agree with you about the need for Ekementor to add conditional logic to their from design system.

In addition I WISH they would add another feature that would set them as part from other firm systems. What I am looking for is the ability to insert a MESSAGE step between steps that gather information. In other words, when the visitor clicks (or taps) on the next button instead of going directly to the next step in the firm, a message is displayed briefly. This would need to have the general features of a banner with an image, text message etc that the user could specify and position. The user would also specify how long the message would display before moving on to the next step in the form.

The purpose of this flow is to allow the website designer to gather some general information about a user's problem BEFORE asking for contact information. For example, if someone is struggling with making payments for their mortgage, the first step in the form would gather information about the problem... without asking for any contact information. Then when the next button was pressed, a message would appear saying something like "we are searching for a program to help you" with maybe ha hour glass with sand flowing from top to bottom. Then after a few seconds another message would appear saying something like, "we found some programs that could help you ... please fill in the information below so we can contact you." Then another form would be displayed with the fields to gather the contact information .. and a final submit button.

It would be nice if the information from the first step was saved temporarily so that it could be later displayed if the visitor returned later to the firm ... but that isn't as needed as the message step. The whole purpose of this is to get the visitor on loved, providing information about their problem BEFORE they are pushed for their contact info. Then, after telling them based on what they have already submitted about their problem telling them there is hope makes it far more likely they will give up their contact info.

It really doesn't seem like it's all that hard for Elementir to do ... and it would give them a HUGE competitive advantage over other multi step form design systems.

Just my thoughts ... it's good though to see continued improvement in the Elementor system.

Nice addition, but very rudimentary indeed. As you mentioned, Conditional Logic is a must, as for Calculating fields. The option to write directly to the database, fill out the google spreadsheets, better integration to Woocommerce (maybe multistep checkout), integration to payment processors ... etc. There is a ton of options to include.

Thanks for making this video so quickly!

I really didn't understand how multistep form would get so many votes when conditional logic is so much more important for having powerful forms with great user experience. I really only use elementor forms for newsletter sign ups. Everything else I still have to do with gravity forms

Man, you talk fast but you are the best. Love your clips. Keep good work. Regards

[erimoitinho]

Conditional logic and regular expressions would be great.

[medodoha]

Very helpful tuts and nice feature. If we have a form to submit books that can have many authors can we use elementor forms to dynamically add authors with add author button to add another authors as we want?

[blagojelukic]

excellent..for basic forms this is great...and lets be honest ..most people prefer simple forms

[jasetundra]

What addon for Elementor do you (or anyone reading this) currently use for conditional logic or something similar to click funnels?

[rhysadams]

Love this, I use Piotnet at the moment that you recommended but it’s not as easy to use. Do you think Elementor will include payments via Stripe and Form to Post at some point?

[digwillhachi]

this is great but I wish they did conditional logic before multi step forms.

[markchadbourne]

Conditional logic wanted by many Elementors. It would make their product a more rounded tool.

[selam]

The conditionally logic is more important, it's missing. Hope Elementor add this soon.

[ztpimenov]

Hey, Paul. Just found that video, but my Elementor Pro just has no updates still, , , , how can I update it manualy?

[Jim.Hummel]

Even with a short video I can learn something new...Paul introduces a new technical term at 3:43 - "dickie-fit"
And yes, I hope conditional logic is included at the release. What are your thoughts on the Lottie animations?

[michaelkolawolesharp]

Is there a way to add unique additional content left and right of the data entry boxes in each step. I want to put some additional guidance for the user entering information and only want certain information to be displayed at each step, is this possible?

[oluwaseunshittu]
