Everest Forms – Repeater Fields Add-On is a powerful extension for the Everest Forms plugin that allows you to add repeater fields to your forms. This feature is especially useful when you need to allow users to submit multiple sets of data within a single form, such as collecting a series of similar information from a user multiple times. For example, a form asking for multiple addresses, contact numbers, or multiple participants in an event.

Key Features of Everest Forms – Repeater Fields Add-On:

1. Dynamic Repeatable Fields:
   • The main feature of the Repeater Fields Add-On is the ability to dynamically repeat a set of fields. Users can click a "Add" button to add more fields, allowing them to submit multiple entries without the need to fill out separate forms for each entry.
2. Customizable Field Groups:
   • You can define a group of fields (e.g., name, email, phone number, address) that will be repeated as a set. Users can add multiple sets of these fields as required, offering flexibility for gathering similar data repeatedly in one form.
3. User-Friendly Interface:
   • The Repeater Fields feature is designed to be easy to use for both form creators and end users. A simple Add and Remove button allows users to easily add or remove repeatable sets of fields. The interface is clean and intuitive.
4. Supports All Field Types:
   • The Repeater Fields Add-On supports all field types available in Everest Forms. This means you can add text fields, checkboxes, radio buttons, select dropdowns, date pickers, and more within the repeater field group.
5. Limit Number of Repeats:
   • You can set a maximum number of times a user can repeat the field group. This allows you to control how many entries a user can submit, ensuring that the form remains manageable and the data collection is within reasonable limits.
6. Conditional Logic Support:
   • Repeater fields can work with conditional logic, allowing you to show or hide fields dynamically based on user input. This ensures that the form remains flexible and only shows relevant fields based on what the user needs.
7. Pre-Populate Fields:
   • You can pre-populate repeater fields with default values or data from previous form submissions. This is useful if users need to repeat data entries and prefer not to fill out the same information again.
8. Customizable Appearance:
   • You can easily style the repeater fields to match your website's theme and design. This includes adjusting labels, buttons, and field appearances. The flexibility in styling helps you maintain a cohesive look and feel across your forms.
9. Data Handling and Submission:
   • The data entered into the repeater fields is submitted as part of the main form submission. Each entry is sent as an individual data set and can be processed or stored in the backend, making it easy to handle the information once the form is submitted.
10. Built-In Validation:
    • You can apply validation rules to the fields within the repeater group. This ensures that users provide the necessary and correct information before submitting the form. For example, you can require certain fields to be filled out or ensure that the format of data is correct (like a valid email address).
11. Great for Multi-Item Submissions:
    • The Repeater Fields Add-On is ideal for forms where users need to submit multiple pieces of similar data, such as adding multiple team members, products, addresses, or contact details in a single form submission.
12. Advanced Data Handling:
    • For advanced users, the data submitted through repeater fields can be accessed programmatically, allowing developers to integrate it with other systems or manipulate the data for further processing.
13. Works with Other Add-Ons:
    • The Repeater Fields Add-On works seamlessly with other Everest Forms add-ons, such as email notifications, conditional logic, and payment gateways, ensuring that it integrates smoothly with your overall form setup.

Why Use Everest Forms – Repeater Fields Add-On?

1. Simplified Form Submission for Users:
   • Instead of filling out a separate form for every individual entry, users can input multiple sets of data (e.g., multiple addresses, participants, items, etc.) in one go, streamlining the experience and making it more convenient for them.
2. Efficiency in Data Collection:
   • If you need to gather multiple entries for a single user (e.g., multiple contact numbers, multiple addresses, or multiple products), the Repeater Fields Add-On saves time by allowing all the data to be collected in one form.
3. Improved User Experience:
   • Allowing users to add more data dynamically (via the Add button) without having to reload or submit the form multiple times improves the user experience. It’s especially helpful in cases where users don’t know exactly how many entries they need to submit.
4. Flexible Forms for Different Use Cases:
   • The Repeater Fields Add-On can be used in a variety of scenarios, such as event registrations (multiple participants), e-commerce forms (multiple items), contact forms (multiple contact details), and many more. It provides versatility for different types of form submissions.
5. Avoid Form Overload:
   • Instead of creating long forms that require multiple sections for different types of data, you can create a single set of fields that can be repeated as needed, avoiding overwhelming the user with a lengthy form.
6. Cost-Effective and Scalable Solution:
   • Instead of creating complex forms with many sections or asking users to fill out separate forms for each entry, you can use repeater fields to create dynamic and scalable forms that adapt to the needs of each user.
7. Data Integrity:
   • Collecting all data in one form submission reduces the chances of missing information or losing track of separate form submissions. With the Repeater Fields Add-On, all related data stays together and is submitted as one cohesive set.
