Redirecting to original URL


Forum|alt.badge.img

Playing with a form for our team to use when they’re attending an upcoming conference. Basic idea is to have a simple form that they can use to collect very basic contact info.  Like name, company, email.

What I had considered doing was using hidden fields for the name of the conference and the person submitting the form (so we can easily sync it or upload it as a Lead in Salesforce).  

What I’m struggling with is after they submit the form, I’d love for it to redirect back to the start of the form to submit another one, while preserving the hidden fields.

Is there a way to do this?

Hi @asmith347 🙋‍♂️

In the Endings section of your typeform, you can choose ‘Redirect to URL’ and enter in the URL of the typeform.

Here’s a quick example I just created. I hope it helps!

I’m surprised there isn’t a simple “Restart” option (or something) when ending a Form.

I don’t know if there is a more elegant solution, but it looks like if you just “refresh” the webpage it restarts the form.

I’ve got exactly the same issue. I’ve tried using the url for the form in the end button, but nothing happens when i click it. It’s like the form isn’t allowing the same person to submit more than once. Any idea what’s happening here?

@galpsy13 Hmm. Try masking the link using a link shortener like bit.ly

Nice idea. Just discovered that it works properly on my new ipad, so it seems to be an issue with my older ipad (which is the one that fits into the lockable kiosk). Installing updates but will try your masking idea if that doesn’t fix it. :)

That didn’t work either, unfortunately. Seems to be something to do with the ipad as it behaves the same on Chrome and Safari. Same on both older ipads I’ve got. Very odd (and frustrating)!
