Grouping fields

Open geoffroy-noel-ddh opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

It would be nice to be able to group fields together on the form. Groups could have their own headings (e.g. "Contact information" for fields like first name, last name, ...) or be displayed on separate pages.

One possible way to define groups in the admin would be add them to the fields list and use a special field type: e.g. 'field group'.

This would be very useful for longer forms.

Great feature and this will make it even powerful. There should also be away of re-ordering the sections on preference.

@geoffroy-noel-ddh:

Regarding grouping fields together. There's a name for that in HTML. It's called fieldset. Every form builder package initially aims to support it one day, but none so far got there. Don't expect it to be done any time soon.

Regarding displaying forms on different pages. In Django they are called form wizards. See the following feature matrix.
