[Resolved] Creating edit post link

Tell us what you are trying to do?
I have created a member form (although I would really like to be able to chunk this form down to several separate forms)

I am using elementor template for the single page layout for the members post. I have followed the instructions below but every time I try to put a link to the content template it just shows the whole form in the single members post.

I want my members to go to a separate page to update information. - Ideally, I would like to have several forms that help them build a profile and that can be displayed nicely on one page along with a link to edit each section of the template.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

What is the link to your site?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

As I understand, you would like to have multisetp/multipart form where you want to fill/update post type information in different parts.

There is no such native feature available but there is a workaround to achieve such feature.

I would like to know here you want multistep form while creating a new entry or editing an entry?

The site is:

The layout that I am using is the "members" layout.
list is here:

I still need to add a search or filter to the side of this page - hoping to be able to filter members by taxonomies

The single layout is here

I am actually pretty happy with the layout of this EXCEPT I am using Elementor and can not get the edit member link to work (this is addressed in another support ticket)

Create form is here
hidden link

What I would like to do is break this down into steps for the new member - There are several sections that need to be added and asking a new member to fill all out at once is overwhelming.
If you notice I have an html header before each section that I would like to be a focus
Create Your Directory Listing.
Coaching Style
Ot-in
and would like to chuck down even more to offerings, credentials and about me.

I would be happy to give you access if you need to look closer.

Actually, as I acknowledge with my previous reply that there is no such native feature to build multistep form.

But the workaround would be:
1) Please follow the following article:

2) You need to follow the method as suggested with the following reply:

Thank you for continuing to help me. I used option one, creating the form page using the following steps

1. after form was built I created a new page (create member tests)
2. using the classic text editor I pasted the code from article one into the content area
3. I (still using the text editor) inserted the shortcodes for the fields from the "create member form"

This created the html great - is exactly what I am looking for except - the shortcode did not show up as anything - there were not question fields.

I recreated trying to use layers - same issue.
I am going to assume it is user error - can you please tell me exactly where I need to add the code from option one.

Hello,

The option one needs to setup a Bootstrap collapse panel group, it require custom HTML/CSS codes, see Bootstrap documents:

If you need more assistance for it, please provide a test site with the same problem, also point out the problem page URL and form URL, we can setup a demo for you.
