Confiforms: Make registration button disappear after first submission

Katherine Barako
May 20, 2026

Hello,

I have a confiforms that creates pages with other confiforms. All forms are defined on a designated "Form Definition" page.

I would ideally like buttons to disappear on the forms once the forms have been submitted. Is there a way to use the "Hide control when stored data matches this criteria" to make it hide the button once that particular form has been submitted on that particular page?

 

Thank you!

Should these forms allow only one record or when exactly is this "have been submitted" state happens?

Allow only one record per page the form appears on

"Hide control when stored data matches this criteria" could be then something like

createdBy:[entry._user]

What if one user creates multiple pages 1,2, 3, each with a Form A? Will this lock the user out of submitting Form A on pages 2 and 3 once they have submitted it on page 1?

I dont understand your question, sorry

To clarify, I have a form that creates pages, that contain registrations for form A, form B, and form C. These 3 forms are defined on a separate page. One user can create multiple pages (lets call them Page001, Page002, Page 003, each with their own registrations to form A, B, and C. 

Say I use 

createdBy:[entry._user]

 as the hide control rule.

 

When a user fills in Form A while on Page001, I want the registration button for Form A to disappear on Page001 only. Not on page002 or page003

Well, with such configuration where you actually dont have a form per page it will not work as I have suggested, but the solution could be extended by adding an autopage field (enabling it to track only when record is created) and then using that autopage field value in the filtering, assuming the field is called "sourcepage"

createdBy:[entry._user] AND sourcepage:[entry._page]

Thanks. Question--do I need the createdBy:[entry._user] part in there, if I want it hidden from everyone once the form has been submitted on that particular page?

 

If I simply put autopage:[entry._page], will that simply hide that button on the form once anyone has submitted that form on that page?
