In a world where time is valuable, simplifying user interactions is essential. Whether you're handling customer support, managing user data, or organizing projects, every second counts.

That's where Formaloo’s user portals come into play. Imagine a system where users enter their personal information just once. This information then automatically fills in every form they complete later.

You do not need to re-enter basic details like your name, email, or other personal information. This makes the whole process faster and more efficient.

This is the magic of "remembering forms". Once a user submits their information in the portal, they don’t have to redo it in future forms.

This smooth experience of auto-filling form fields with saved user data cuts down on repetition and speeds up the process.

This saves your users time and creates a smoother, more personalized experience. All their information is stored in one place.

What are remembering forms?

Remembering forms allow your portal to automatically fill in a user's previously submitted information—like their name, email, or phone number—whenever they return to fill out another form.

Once a user completes a form inside your Formaloo portal, their basic details are securely saved. The next time they access another form in the same portal, those details are automatically filled in.

No more repeating the same information over and over.

Why it matters

Let’s say you're running a customer support portal. Typically, users have to re-enter their contact info every time they submit a new support request. This not only wastes time but can also lead to inconsistent or incorrect data.

With remembering forms, the experience becomes smoother:

• Faster form completion: Users don’t need to type the same info repeatedly.
• Fewer errors: Pre-filled fields reduce mistakes.
• Consistent data: You collect clean, standardized data every time.
• Better experience: Returning users feel like the system knows them.

This is especially useful in multi-form portals—for example:

• Student dashboards with attendance, assignments, and feedback forms
• Internal HR portals with leave requests and feedback surveys
• Client onboarding portals with multiple steps

How it works in your Formaloo portal

Formaloo’s user portals connect every form to a user’s profile behind the scenes. Here's a quick look at how it functions:

1. First form submission
   When a user submits a form for the first time, their basic information is stored in the system.
2. Automatic data memory
   Formaloo links the data to their profile and securely stores it within the portal.
3. Future forms auto-filled
   Any other forms in the same portal will automatically populate fields with that stored data—saving time and effort.

You can also manage which fields are remembered and customize your form logic based on user info.

⭐ Pro tip: Use embed style for remembering forms

The remembering forms works when forms are submitted inside the portal where users are logged in. There are two ways to insert forms into your portal:

1. Embed style: This style allows the form to be displayed directly within the portal. When users submit the form from inside the portal, their data is remembered, making subsequent form submissions easier and faster.
2. Card style: This style displays the form as a card in the portal. However, the remembering forms works only when using the Embed style.

So, to take full advantage of pre-filled data and make form submissions quicker, use the Embed Style for your forms inside the portal.
