WPForms Save and Resume Addon Plugin

The WPForms Save and Resume addon enables your visitors to save their form progress and resume it later with a simple click, ensuring a seamless experience while filling out forms on your website.

Allowing visitors to save their progress on forms can enhance user experience significantly, especially for longer or complex forms. It gives them the flexibility to complete the form at their own pace without losing any entered information.

The Save and Resume addon for WPForms Pro (or higher) enables users to add a Save and Resume link to any form. Visitors can click this link to save their progress and return later to complete their entry seamlessly.

The Save and Resume feature in WPForms is highly flexible. You can choose to display a unique link for users to copy and save for later use. Alternatively, users can opt to send the link via email. You have the option to configure each form to display both these choices or select just one based on your preferences and user needs.

Once visitors save a partial entry using the Save and Resume feature in WPForms, they can return to your website within 30 days to restore their answers and complete the form. As the site administrator, you’ll have the ability to view, edit, and delete these saved entries directly from the WordPress dashboard. This functionality ensures a convenient and organized approach to managing form submissions.

The Save and Resume feature is particularly beneficial for lengthy forms and forms that require input from multiple individuals. It allows users to save their progress and return later to complete the form, which is especially useful for complex or time-consuming surveys.
