Hi everybody!

I am studiying Seblod since a few months now and I am starting to do some quite interesting things with this amazing cck...
Now I am testing the stages functionnality for multi-form.
I would like to know if it is possible to save a multi-form without having to passing through all the stages of it?
To be more specific, I would like to give my users the possibility to fill, for exemple, the fields of the first and second stages and then save the form and quit to return to a specific page without having to go to the third and final stage. And then return a few days after and go directly to the third stage to complete the empty fields...
I tried with all the different "save button" but I am always redirected to the next stage when the form is saved.

Is it possible to make a "previous button" like the "next button" in order to be able to return to the previous stage? I try to make a custom button with a value for "stage" in "custom variables" field of the settings but it doesn't seems to work.

And I didn't find a way to display some field (like my "save button") in all stages without having to duplicate it. Somebody have found a trick?

Anybody to give me a little help?

Hi WebCPCP,

I don't have time today to write out a full instruction list for you, but for the "previous" button, you can make one using the Button Free Field Plugin. In the field settings, make it link to editing your content, and then click the "+" and you can select specifically which stage you want the button to link to. So, on each stage you need to add one of these buttons and get it to link back to the previous stage.

Regarding showing a field on all stages, I don't think it's possible. You need to duplicate it and add it to each stage you want it to appear on.

Hi _jrmo,

I just bought the Button Free Field Plugin and test it and it works as expected. :-) Thank you very much for your help!

If you have a solution to save a multi stages form without having to pass through all stages it will be appreciate, as the button "Save & New" seems not working in this case...

Again thanks a lot.
