Repeatable sections let users enter multiple instances of the same group of questions—ideal for scenarios like listing children, properties, or other repeatable details. This guide explains how to enable and configure a repeatable section in your form.
Instructions
- Open your form in the Form Builder.
- Navigate to the section you want to make repeatable.
- Click the pencil icon (✏️) to open the Section Edit panel.
- Tick the checkbox labelled Repeatable.
- Add the Minimum and Maximum number of repetitions.
- Save the section.
TIP: Once enabled, form fillers will see an Add Another button when completing the form. Clicking this lets them create as many instances of that section as needed.
TIP: Use clear section headings like Child or Property to help users understand what they’re adding. Each repeated instance will follow the same structure.
Common Issues & Solutions
- Issue: The repeated sections aren’t showing in the final document.
- Solution: Check that the Word template supports repeating content. You may need to adjust your template settings or use the repeat functionality in the Word add-in.
- Issue: I can't reference fields from repeatable sections elsewhere in the form.
- Solution: Fields inside repeatable sections are unique to each instance. You can reference them using the Word add-in but not from other sections within the form itself.
