We have form "A" shown in frontend dashboard, which generates a post via Elementor.
- Later the user should be able to fill out another form in his dashboard, lets call it form "B" and this new information is shown additionally in the existing post. (Output via elementor)
In UX/UI Form "B" should be reached via a button in the dashboard post-overview. Example Image

Best regards
Harry

Hi Harry,

Currently, we do not support customizing the frontend dashboard to add a button like that.

Hi Long,

I fully understand, that such a request is out of the scope of your support.

I am a beginner - Can you maybe aid me to understand If and HOW such a a combination of forms to add up to one post is possible?

Regards
Harry

Hi,

It's also not possible. You can create more frontend submission forms (pages) with many meta boxes (field groups) to create posts, but the frontend dashboard only allows editing posts from one frontend submission page.

Or you can add multiple meta box IDs to the frontend to allow users to fill all the fields when creating a post. For example:
```
[mb_frontend_form id="meta-box-id1,meta-box-id2,meta-box-id3" post_fields="title,content"]
```
Get more details here https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-frontend-submission/#shortcode-attributes
