module FormBuilderMultiplier - repeatable Fieldgroups in FormBuilder forms

[BitPoet]

Hi Ivan, sorry, there's currently no new version. I haven't had the chance to update to a newer FormBuilder release yet, that's on my schedule for December. That will also be the time to give FB Multiplier a bit of an overhaul.

Great! Hope it will be early December)

This module doesn't seem to work with latest FormBuilder. Are you planning to maintain it and fix issues? Maybe there is already a newer version, just not in the repo?

I finally found , the new master release 0.0.10 works here with the latest FormBuilder release. Let me know if you encounter any issues.

Thank you in advance! And thanks for yesterday's fix too!

Hi,

i've used the module for some event registration forms in the last couple of months and it worked great!

For documentation, some issues i found in my forms:

• Checkboxes inside multiplying fieldsets are only working for the first multiplied item (hard to spot this one, as i missed the documented working form fields on the thread start, it seems to work and was only identified after losing some data following detailed testing) - workaround is to use selections, which work nicely.
• When using "visible only if" or "required only if" rules (based on fields outside the multiplying fieldset), these are working only for the first multiplied item. Seems like the rules are only taken into account for multiplied items which exist at form load. If you try to submit a form and receive input validation errors, the items are then set up correctly in the reloaded form.
• Exporting entries as CSV does not use multiplied form fields, you only receive the first multiplied item. I've missed this one until it got important for a bigger event. I might try to fix this issue in the upcoming days..

Is this module still being maintained? We are attempting to use it for paginated Formbuilder forms, but it appears to have an issue with loading values from the session for duplicated/multiplied fields within the fieldset. Instead of retrieving the correct values for each field, it seems to take the value from the first field and apply/overwrite it to all subsequent fields.

Somehow it always saves the values from the origin fields also for the cloned fields in the formbuilder form session when I submit the paginated form to the next page.
The post request values looks good to me?

I was able to fix it with this hook in ready.php. It now sets the correct timestamp.

$wire->addHookAfter("InputfieldDatetime::processInput", function (HookEvent $event) {
    $input = $event->arguments(0);

    if($input->get('_InputfieldForm') == 'testactivity' && $event->object->inputType == 'html') {
        $correctValue = strtotime($input->get($event->object->getAttribute('name')));
        $event->object->setAttribute('value', $correctValue);
    }
});
