Can I create multiple forms in Webflow for different events and sort the form data to identify which event the user is registering for?
Yes, you can create multiple forms in Webflow for different events and easily sort the form data to identify which event the user is registering for. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this:
Create a Form: Start by creating separate forms for each event you want to collect registrations for. To create a form, drag and drop the "Form" element from the Elements panel onto your page.
Customize the Form Fields: Customize the form fields based on the information you want to collect from the users. Make sure to include a field that allows users to select the event they want to register for. You can use a dropdown or a radio button field for this purpose.
Connect the Form to a Collection: In Webflow, you can connect your form to a collection, which acts as a database for storing the form submissions. To do this, go to the "Form Settings" panel and select the "Enable Collection" checkbox. Then, choose an existing collection or create a new one specifically for this event.
Add a Dynamic Reference Field: In the collection, add a new field of type "Text" called "Event Name". This field will store the name or ID of the event the user is registering for.
Populate the Event Name Field: Each form you create should have a unique identifier or name for the event. In the form settings, find the field that corresponds to the event name and enter the value that matches that event.
Sort and Filter Form Submissions: Once users start submitting the forms, you can easily sort and filter the form submissions based on the event name field. In the Collection Editor, go to the "Filter" section, select the "Event Name" field, and choose the specific event you want to filter by. This will display only the form submissions for that particular event.
By following these steps, you can create multiple forms in Webflow for different events and sort the form data to identify which event the user is registering for. This allows you to conveniently manage and analyze registrations for each event separately.
