Hi there,
I would like to prepare a database for an academic journal. I have some fields such as Manuscript Title, Abstracat, Keywords, cover letter file(pdf), plagiarism report(pdf), manuscript file(doc), first author info fields, second author info fields and so on. These fields are not appropriate to save in Contacs database table.
I would like to use Multistep form because its functional structure but there is no chance to connect multistep form to any other database table.
I prepared “Multistep Registration” form database table as I need but at the end the fields I fixed did not appear on the settings page. I tried every options. Additionally I could not find any source for this issue. Is there anybody can help to solve the issue please!
Did you use CODE? I can’t see any CODE-SCRIPT.
If not, then it is probably not possible without using CODE.
No I didn’t. I had used some codes in the past but for the moment I don’t know where to begin.
How does look like your form ? Pic?
How does look like your DATABASE ?
I do not know your steps which you want to go to fill out your form.
But here i just prepared a simple database with your mentioned DATA…
Click on “Preset-DB-3” and your DATA should be loaded.
If not, click once on RESET, after loading the right DATABASE.

Something similar to your project?
Let me clarify a bit. At the first step you can see the first step of multistep form. You can continue by clicking on Author(s) informaton button. It leads user to second step. Fixing the form is ok. But when I want to see the records on “Multistep Registration” data table which is generated together with the multistep form by the system automatically, It is not possible to see data. As you can see at the connections settings there is only one choice to send the collected data to the Contacts database table. Additionally this database does not allow to upload document files. I share the link if you want to see the webpage. Thank you for your efforts.

I want to use multistep form with “multistep registration” database. that is all.
I will expand it’s functions later… take a look…

You can already change —> Manuscript-Title + Abstract
And also keywords works (but it has still to be modified !!!)
You will see the OUTPUT here…

First do the right settings, to see your results…
DATABASE: —> “DATA-COLLECTION”
DB-LIMIT: ----> max. 1000
TABLE: ----------> “table1”
REPEATER: ----> “repeater1” OR “repeater2” (your choice).
Setup also the DropDown-settings and Checkbox-Settings (if not done yet).
You will find the settings, when opening the settings menu…
…and going to…PRESETS…
I already installed PRESET-3 for you (but you can change like you want, to see the results in the right view.
Here the working CODE for the Manuscript-Form:
import wixData from 'wix-data';
$w.onReady(function () {
$w('#btnSAVE').onClick(()=>{
save_Data()
})
});
function save_Data (parameter) {
let toSave = {
"_id": "00001",
"title": $w('#inputTitle').value,
"abstract": $w('#inputAbstract').value,
"keywords": ["key1","key2","key3","key4","key5"]
};
wixData.save("DATA-COLLECTION", toSave)
.then( (results) => {
let item = results; //see item below
console.log(results.items)
} )
.catch( (err) => {
let errorMsg = err;
} );
}
This should show you the first STEP, how to solve it.
Of course this is just an INTERACTIVE-EXAMPLE —> which you can expand a lot, by your own needs 
If you need more help, just let me know.
I will try it and inform you. Thank you for sparing your time.
No problem.
But ATTENTION! As i already mentioned —> it’s an INTERACTIVE-EXAMPLE and can change every day (if DATABASE-SETUP was changed by someone else).
Always first check the PRESET-SETUP for this example:
First do the right settings, to see your results...
DATABASE: ---> "DATA-COLLECTION"
DB-LIMIT: ----> max. 1000
TABLE: ----------> "table1"
REPEATER: ----> "repeater1" OR "repeater2" (your choice).
SETUP-DropDown-Fields
SETUP-CheckBox-Fields
In the next few days, this example could be expanded, with more working features.
EDIT:
Are you able to make some changes in the Manuscript-form and SAVE it???
Try it out.
I did not see any changes in the example-DATABASE.
It worked. Thank you very much. You are so kind. большое спасибо.
You are welcome (Незачто) 
Now you should be able to complete your form and expand the working CODE.
For example this part here…
"keywords": ["key1","key2","key3","key4","key5"]
change it to…
"keywords": [$w('#Key1').value,$w('#Key2').value,$w('#Key3').value,$w('#Key4').value,]
//..... and so on....
‘#Key1’ —> should then be your Inputfield-ID for Keyword-1 …and so on…
I see. I can fix the rest now. Thank you again.
