Allow users to save a partially filled WordPress form as a draft so they can complete it later before submitting it with our Forminator plugin.
Sometimes, form-filling takes time – especially multipage or lengthy forms. With Forminator’s Save and Continue option, users can save a form as a draft and complete a form at a later time via a custom link.
This highly requested feature is available and easy as ever to implement. You’ll be able to customize your form’s settings to allow draft retention periods, allow drafts of forms sent to an email address, edit messages, and more!
This brief article takes you through all the features and how to implement them.
We’ll cover:
You can begin using this feature immediately, so let’s…
Get Started
The Save as Draft feature can be applied to a new, draft, or published form. To begin, choose a form from Forminator’s Dashboard or create a new one.
If you’re new to Forminator and need a detailed look at creating a form from scratch, be sure to check out our article about How to Get the Most Out of Using Forminator.

If you’d like to add this to a previously created form, simply click the Gear Icon and then Edit.

And for a new form, the process will be the same. Once you get your form started, you’ll click Behavior to begin. When you scroll down a bit, you’ll see Save and Continue.
Ready for launch? Click Enable Save and Continue to activate.

When enabled, a dropdown menu will appear with customizable options. There is a Configuration and Permissions area.
