    Hi!

    Is there a way to move to the next page without answering the required questions?

    I want the person to be allowed to go back and forth within the form, but not be able to submit without the required questions. Currently, they get stuck on page one.

    Thanks,

    Rodrigo

    Hi Rodrigo,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. It's possible to allow users to navigate through pages while the fields are required but will not be able to submit the forms if these are empty. Use the Form Tabs widget and allow navigation without validation. Let me show you how:

    1. On the Form Builder page, click on the Add Form Elements button at the upper left.
    2. On the Form Elements, go to the Widgets tab.
    3. Search and click on the Form Tabs to add.
    4. The Widget Settings opens on the right.
    5. Under the Allow navigation without validation, select Yes.
    6. Click on the Update Widget button to save the changes.
