Let’s be real—building long forms with dozens of fields used to be a mess.
Earlier, when we wanted to create a form, we had to keep adding fields one below the other. There was no way to categorize or structure them cleanly. The more fields we added, the more painful it became to scroll, manage, or even preview them properly. That’s not just a bad admin experience—it leads to bad user experience too.
But not anymore.
We’ve introduced Tab-Based Form Sections to our form builder, and it’s a complete game changer.
💡 What's New? Say Hello to Tabs!
Now, instead of dumping all your fields in a single block, you can organize them using Tabs. These are fully customizable sections where you can group similar fields together.
For example:
- 👤 Personal Information (Name, Age, Gender)
- 📞 Contact Info (Email, Phone, Address)
Each tab holds its relevant fields, keeping things neat and structured.
🛠️ Admin Features You’ll Love
This isn’t just a visual change—it's packed with powerful admin features to give you full control:
✅ Add Tab – Create a new section instantly.
✏️ Edit Tab Name – Made a typo or want to rename a section? Just click and update it anytime.
🗑️ Delete Tab – Don’t need a tab anymore? Deleting a tab will also remove all its fields, making cleanup easy.
↔️ Rearrange Tabs (Drag Left/Right) – Tabs aren’t fixed. You can move them left or right to reorder and structure the form as you like.
👀 Preview Before Save – Not sure how it looks? Hit Preview and check the full form before you save it.
Here’s a quick look at the updated admin interface:
👨💻 Frontend Experience: Cleaner Forms, Happier Users
Tabbed forms aren’t just great for admins—they’re amazing for users too.
On the frontend, instead of overwhelming users with endless scrolling, the form is split into simple, bite-sized sections. Users can fill out one tab at a time, jump between sections, and focus only on the relevant fields.
It's smooth, modern, and mobile-friendly.
⚖️ Why Tabs? Benefits vs. Old Method
✅ Benefits of Tab-Based Forms:
- 💼 Professional Layout – Looks cleaner and more modern.
- 📐 Well-Structured – Helps users and admins navigate large forms easily.
- 🧠 Cognitive Ease – Users don’t feel overwhelmed.
- 🔄 Easy to Manage – Add, edit, delete, or rearrange sections without affecting the entire form.
- 🔍 Focused Validation – You can validate one section at a time.
- 🧪 Live Preview – Quickly review the structure before saving.
❌ Drawbacks of the Old Linear Method:
- 🌀 Unorganized Fields – Everything dumped in one place.
- 🕵️♂️ Hard to Find Info – No separation or sections.
- 🐌 Slow Editing – Rearranging or removing fields was time-consuming.
- 😵 Bad UX – Users had to scroll forever to complete large forms.
🎯 Final Thoughts
Organizing your form using tabs isn’t just a cosmetic upgrade—it improves the entire workflow, both for admins building the form and users filling it out.
If you're still using the old-school stacked form method, it’s time to switch things up. Your forms—and your users—deserve better.
