Umbraco Forms - Custom Form Setting

Hello Umbracians!

I have an Umbraco Form that I want to add a new “Submit” button to the end of the form to “Submit and start again”; effectively submitting the form then showing the user a blank form to complete again.

I can just add the button in by overwriting the theme file but I wanted to give a little more flexibility into the back office to allow the user to potentially select a new URL / text for the button to go to.

My initial thought was to add a new setting into the form but can’t seem to find out how to do this. I’ve looked through the documentation but can’t see a way to accomplish this. Does anyone know?

For clarification, this is the settings page I wish to add a new setting to.

As far as I know, it’s not possible. The only thing you can do is to add custom CSS
.my-forms-class input[type=submit] { color: red };
if you know a way to add URLs into CSS, not sure if that’s something at all, that might be your solution.

Heya! Could you do this in a custom workflow? Either redirect the user back to the existing page with the current form or async reload it with JavaScript?

Then they could update the button text and choose the workflow that handles it.

Thanks for the replies; they both sound like good workarounds :raising_hands:

I feel like this should be something we should be able to do, so I popped an issue/feature request in the Forms issue tracker.
