Upload files on different tabs in one form to Power Pages

Hi All,

I have the following issue.

I have one form on my Pages Portal. This form exists out of multiple tab. To go to the next tab, you click on the button next. And on the last tab of the form, you click the button submit to submit everything. My problem here is, I have on tab 3, 4, and 5 (5 is the last tab) a file upload. I can upload the files but it will only save the files I uploaded on the last tab. I assume this has to do something with that you click on submit at the last tab and on tab 3 and 4 you click on next so it is never really submitted.

In this case, I could merge tab 3, 4, and 5. However, in another form, my file upload is on the first tab and it really has to stay there. Does anyone know how I can solve this?

Use a Multi Step Form (a,k,a, Advanced / Web Form) manually create Steps each Tab, it will save after each "next".

I rather not use a multi step form due to certain inconveniences. Are there other solutions?

My biggest problem with Power Pages Multistep form is that I somehow cannot activate the previous and next button, only the submit button. Do you have any tips on this? Your help is much appreciated!

Not sure from your description but doesn't sound like you have configured the Multi step form correctly.
Make sure that you have synced the portal (or manualy cleared the portal cache /_services/about)
Define multi step Form
Define Setps, first Step will be Insert, next step Edit
Update multi step form, first step lookup to your first step

Hi Fubar,

First of all thank you so much for all your help.

I figured out that I could not see the previous button because I checked the box 'Auto generate steps from Tabs'. Now I unchecked it, it is possible to see the previous button. No idea how or why but it works now!
