Frequently asked questions
How do I save progress between steps?
Stash answers in localStorage on each step, hydrate on load. LemForms has save-and-resume built in — respondents get a magic link to return to the exact field they left.
How do I add per-step validation?
Call form.checkValidity() before allowing 'Next', and use setCustomValidity for custom rules. LemForms validates per-step automatically and shows inline errors with no JS.
