Creating Repeating Pages

The options for repeating pages are held in a page's settings.

Repeatable

This setting controls whether or not a page is repeatable. If false, a user will see the page once, then move on to the next. If true, they'll be able to generate multiple repeats of the page.

Validate Instance Count

Set this as true to use the minimum and maximum settings below. If false, a user will be able to generate any number of page instances (up to a maximum of 100) and the minimum and maximum settings will be ignored.

Minimum and Maximum Instances

These settings only apply if the count is being validated.

If enabled the "Wizard Buttons", "Wizard Buttons - Repeating Page", "Navigation Button", and "Submit Button" field types will validate the number of page instances. The validation will check the current number of page instances against the "Minimum Instances" and "Maximum Instances" page properties. The validation will be performed when a user attempts to leave the repeating page or when attempting to add a page instance.

If both the minimum and maximum are set as 0, the page will be skipped.
