Summary Model

This style of repeating page starts with a summary.

Rather than creating repeats which can be navigated through, the repeating page is removed from the usual user journey in the form. Instead the user sees a summary page with the option to add instances to it. The repeating page is only visited when adding an instance.

Building this style needs a little more thought than the Navigation Model, and involves placing the repeating page after the form submit page. The "Add" button of the summary template is used to navigate to the repeating page.

Validating the number of instances is done using a Validator field on the summary page. The validator field checks the instance count of the repeating page, and the "Validate Instance Count" setting on the repeating page is turned off (otherwise you would be trapped on that page rather than being able to navigate back to the summary).
