Hello,
I assume we are talking about this case:
- One post type "request for medical supplies"
- lots of custom fields in above post types: name, type, and quantity then users add delivery address
You are going to setup multi-step forms, each form controls only few of above fields.
If it is, you can try these:
1) Create a post form for creating "request for medical supplies" post(for example, form name is "Step 1", form ID is 123), display only few fields.
option "After visitors submit this form" choose: Display the post.
2) Create a post form for editing "request for medical supplies" post(for example, form name is "Step 2", form ID is 456), display other custom fields.
3) Create a content template "step-2-ct", display above editing post form, (for example, the content template ID is 789)
4) Create a page, and display above post form
after users fill and submit the form "Step 1", you can use filter hook "cred_success_redirect" to trigger a PHP function, redirect them to the content template "step-2-ct", for example, add below PHP codes into your theme file "functions.php":
add_filter('cred_success_redirect', function($url, $post_id, $form_data)
{
if ($form_data['id']==123){
$url = add_query_arg( array(
'content-template-id' => '789',
), $url);
}
return $url;
}, 10, 3);
Please replace 123 with "step 1" form's ID, replace 789 with content template "step-2-ct" ID
Then user will be able to use "step-2-ct" content template to edit the new created post.
