Component body
A block with direct links to Field Group's Multipage pages.
This module extends the functionality of Field Group's Multipage format type for entities by providing a block that allows you to access all multipages directly from a list.
By default you only have Previous page and Next page buttons to navigate with, but for large and complex forms this may be too restrictive, say when you need to edit a minor detail on page 8 in a 12 page application form.
Having links to all pages in a multipage group provided as a block gives flexibility to the site builder and themer on both navigation position and list css.
Usage
- Enable this module
- Go to Manage fields in an entity type (content types, user profile, et.al.)
- Create a field group of type multipage group, and within it a few field groups of type multipage and underneath them again, fields.
- In the multipage group settings, enable the option Create a jumplist block of this group. This will create a navigation or jumplist block for this multipage field group instance and is now available on the block admin page.
- Head over to the block admin page and place the newly created block to a region.
- Create or edit content of this entity type and use the jumplist block to navigate directly to all pages within this multipage group.
Jumplist blocks have a few simple settings you might want to look at and the list and list items can be theme overridden.
