If I use the Repeater fields on a Formidable Form, only the first row appears in the PDF - if the user adds additional rows to enter more information, those rows do not appear on the PDF. How do I fix this?
Thank you!

Hi,

Hi, 2nd entry can be outputted as [8wbpx1:2], 3rd [8wbpx1:3] and so on, same for other fields, where 8wbpx1 is Field ID or Field Key (Example screenshot 1).

Empty fields can be hidden via "Actions" and "Conditions", by setting "Action" to "Hide" and "Action" to if [8wbpx1:2] = "" on needed fields. (Screenshot 2)

Pages also can be hidden in the same way. Usually it will be enough to check only first repeatable entry on new page if it's empty and hide. (Screenshot 3).

Another solution can be to use "HTML" object, which can split content via pages. It's possible to use formidable forms [foreach] construction as value. (Screenshot 4)

We would really appreciate your feedback at WordPress.org!

Thank you! So the only way to do this is to create our own template? We're using the auto PDF function, so to add these fields, we basically have to recreate the whole thing?

Unfortunately yes, you will need to edit manually created Auto PDF Template to fit on your needs. We will think maybe on "option" to define how much repeatable fields to generate.
