Multi-page forms with conditional logic - progress bar issue

Hello,

We have a multi-page form with some Pages using conditional logic based on the value of a radio button selected at the very beginning of the form.

There are a total of 9 steps (pages) in the form, 4 of those pages are conditional.

The problem is, no matter which radio button is selected at the beginning of the for the progress bar shows 9 steps, even if the value of the radio button creates a condition where only 5 steps are required to fill out the form.

The process itself works fine, but the progress bar isn't showing the correct number of steps.

That's not an issue, it's simply not how the progress bar is intended to function. It simply lists the number of total pages in your form.

We may provide some logic for that in the future, but for now you'll probably want to come up with some other solution like disabling the default progress/step bar and using strategically placed HTML blocks in your form pages as page/step indicators. Those can be shown/hidden along with the page content using the conditional logic

Would be nice to have some logic built into the progress bars as I have done something similar to nolan.interactive and the progress bar is now useless.

The "progress bar" is simply that.. just to indicate your progress. It's not intended to be a navigation aid. If it's useless to you in that respect, then don't use it. It's entirely optional.
