    Good morning,

    If I have a form where I need the same field filled in multiple times, like name, is there a way I can get it to populate in all of the spaces, or do I have to do one at a time?

    Thanks

    Jen

    Hi,

    Thank you for reaching out.

    Please kindly clarify which of the following scenarios are you referring to:

    1. Fill in a field (name), remove it then fill it in again. Repeat this same process for multiple times.
    2. Fill in a field, say name, click on the submit button to send out the form. Return back to the same form and fill in the same form again with a different name. Repeat this same process for multiple times.

    Looking forward to your reply.

    Regards,

    So within my form (it is multiple pages combined together), a student name is requested 5 different times.
    Is there a way for me to request the name for the 1st field and then it would auto populate into the other 4 places also?
    Thank you

    Hello,

    Thank you for the additional information.


    It is possible using the update/calculate field conditions (https://www.jotform.com/help/57-smart-forms-conditional-logic-for-online-forms).


    You can then do as below which will copy the input from one field to another automatically:
