When a form is submitted, a thank you message is displayed. Most of the time, your workflow ends there. In some instances, you might want to let users fill the same form again or redirect users to another form, blank form or carry the same data. In old times, you manually create a link and add that link to the thank you page. The same when providing a way for users to edit their submission and download a PDF copy of their entry.
