## Requirements
* SilverStripe ^4.0
- SilverStripe ^5.
**Note:** For a SilverStripe 3.x compatible version, please use [the 1.x release line](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-multiform/tree/1.3).
**Note:** For a SilverStripe 4.x or 3.x compatible version, please use `^2` or `^1` tagged version
## What it does do
* Abstracts fields, actions and validation to each individual step.
* Maintains flow control automatically, so it knows which steps are ahead and
behind. It also can retrieve an entire step process from start to finish, useful
for a step list.
* Persists data by storing it in the session for each step, once it's
completed. The session is saved into the database.
* Allows customisation of next, previous steps, saving, loading and
finalisation of the entire step process
* Allows for basic ability to branch a step by overloading the next step method
with logic to switch based on a condition (e.g. a checkbox, or dropdown in the
field data).
* Ties a user logged in who is using the step process (if applicable). This
means you can build extended security or logging.
* Basic flexibility on the URL presented to the user when they are using the
forms. By default it stores an encrypted hash of the session in the URL, but you
can reference it by the ID instead. It's recommend that additional security,
such as checking the user who first started the session be applied if you want
to reference by ID.

## What it doesn't do
* Automatically handle relation saving, e.g. MembershipForm manages the Member
* Provide a complete package out of the box (you must write a bit of code using
the tutorial!)
* Automatically determine what to do at the end of the process, and where to
save it
* Provide nicely presented URLs of each step (an enhancement, for the future)

Included with the MultiForm module is a class called _MultiFormPurgeTask_. This
task can be used to purge expired session data on a regular basis. The date of
expiry can be customised, and is given a default of 7 days to delete sessions
after their creation.
You can run the task from the URL, by using http://mysite.com/dev/tasks/MultiFormPurgeTask?flush=1
MultiFormPurgeTask is a subclass of *BuildTask*, so can be run using the [SilverStripe CLI tools](http://doc.silverstripe.org/framework/en/topics/commandline).

One way of automatically running this on a UNIX based machine is by cron.

* Code example on how to use `$form->saveInto()` with MultiForm, as it doesn't have all steps in the $form context at `finish()`

* Allow customisation of `prev()` and `next()` on each step. Currently you can only customise for the entire MultiForm subclass. There is a way to customise on a per step basis, which could be described in a small recipe.
* More detailed explanation, and recipe example on how to make branched multistep forms. For example, clicking a different action takes you to an alternative next step than the one defined in `$next_steps`
