I’ve a client that needs a form to be able to be accessible to members who can then fill it in, possibly partially, and then possibly return at a later date to edit or complete the form. Is this feasible with Freeform?

I guess that if the the entries tag can be used to populate the form tag then it might be possible. Any ideas?

Also, any possibility of spitting out reports?

Johnnytangent,

Currently Freeform does not enable the editing of entries. That’s the essential piece that you would need.

As far as reports, you can output a text file of Freeform entries if you want. But if you want something more specific, you may need to write some PHP and MySQL.

I’ve added a feature request for editing entries. It would be really useful.

Basically the client wants to have a set of questions/quizes etc. - they vary. And members, as said, would need to be able to come back and alter things, so it’s not a one-off fill-it-in and shoot-it-off type deal. Actually, following that thought through, does the form save its contents if people leave and come back later (via cookie or session perhaps)?

As for reports - I could do the coding, but I wonder whether something could be hooked up with the CSVee plugin… thoughts?

Thanks for the input. As you might imagine, development on Freeform, which is Free software, usually takes a back seat to development on pay software. So this feature may take a bit of time to add.
