    How can I have an option that when the form is filled but before going to pay they have the ability to fill the form in again with different answers and then going to payments section and paying for both?

    I'm afraid that it won't be possible to do that, but if you could please explain a workflow a bit more we could probably offer a workaround?

    We'll wait for your response.

    Thank you!

    I have a form where parents enter their children in a dance eisteddfod. At present they can only enter one child in their dances and pay. If they need to enter a second or third child they have to fill out the form again for each child. The only way I can see doing it would be to have duplicate pages on the form where at the end of entering the first child they would be asked if they wanted to enter another child. If they answer yes it would take them to the duplicate pages. But this leads to the form being so very long. At present it is about 10 pages. The link is https://form.jotform.co/72739205984871. This is a clone of the form I am currently using.

    What could be a solution is to add a field where your users will enter how many kids they want to sign.

    Then to calculate the total price and show appropriate fields.

    And create conditions that will show the appropriate fields:

    And add the form calculation field that will calculate the price that you set in calculation values of the drop-down field:

    The biggest problem is that each child may choose a different dance in a different age group.

    I understand that it would require that the form is changed a bit. 

    The problem is the payment, otherwise, you could redirect your users upon submission to the same form again. 

    That might be one solution, you could add one field at the end of the form saying, "Do you want to add another child?" and if the answer is Yes, you can redirect them to The same form again, otherwise the normal thank you page will show:

    That would be one solution, otherwise, the form would have to be restructured so it will show multiple fields and calculate prices when more than one child is signed.

    Let us know your thoughts.

    Thank you!
