Save form for later?

    I can't figure out how to set up my form so that it can be saved for later.

    The UI has been changed since the User Guide was written, so it's pretty confusing.

    For example https://www.jotform.com/help/227-How-to-Enable-Auto-Fill-on-Forms

    Since this template for a scholarship application that requires a teacher's recommendation and input, it would be very useful it the form could be saved and completed later.

    Thanks for your help!

    The guide shows how to do in in JotForm version 3 and 4. Her is how to enable in V4:

    . Click SETTINGS at the top > FORM SETTINGS on the left > then click the SHOW MORE OPTIONS button.

    2. Scroll down a bit and change CONTINUE FORMS LATER to ENABLED.

    I have toggled that option to Enabled, but the only option I have is to "Submit".

    How does one differentiate between completed applications, and ones that are still in process?

    Thanks!

    Hello tapsing,

    Please note that if you enable "Autofill' in form, the input data is actually saved in browser cookies every few seconds. You will not be able to see the data until form is submitted. It is only users who will see the saved form data.

    Hope this answers your query.

    Do get back to us if you have any questions.

    Thank you!
