Can someone provide a detailed tutorial on creating a 2-page sign-up form on Webflow? Specifically, the tutorial should include information about passing data from page 1 to page 2, having a custom waiting text on the 'next page' button, adding a pause on the first 'next page' button, implementing basic validation for email and phone number, and utilizing the form success message setting. Thank you!

Sure! I can provide a detailed tutorial on creating a 2-page sign-up form on Webflow. Let's break it down into different steps:

Step 1: Designing the Page Layout
First, you'll need to design the layout for both Page 1 and Page 2 of the sign-up form. This can be done using Webflow's visual designer. You can add form elements such as text fields, checkboxes, buttons, etc., on both pages.

Step 2: Passing Data from Page 1 to Page 2
To pass data from Page 1 to Page 2, we'll use query parameters in the page URL. On Page 1, you can use a button or form submission to redirect users to Page 2, appending the necessary data as query parameters in the URL. For example, if you have an input field for the user's name on Page 1, you can append it to the URL like this: `page2.html?name=John`.

On Page 2, you can use Webflow's Dynamic Embed element to retrieve and display the data from the query parameters. Add a Dynamic Embed element on the page, and in its settings, choose "Set attributes" and set the attribute to match the name of the query parameter (e.g., "name").

Step 3: Custom Waiting Text on the 'Next Page' Button
To have custom waiting text on the "next page" button, we'll add a bit of custom code. Go to the project settings in Webflow and add a new Custom Code section. Inside the section, add the following code:

```html

```

Make sure you replace `'nextButton'` with the actual ID of your "next page" button element.

Step 4: Adding a Pause on the First 'Next Page' Button
To add a pause on the first "next page" button, you can use Webflow's Interactions feature. First, give your button a custom class (e.g., "nextButton"). Then, go to the Interactions panel and create a new interaction for the button.

In the interaction, set the trigger to "Click" on the "nextButton" class. Add an action to the interaction, choose "Start Timer", and set the desired duration for the pause. Finally, add another action to the interaction, choose "Redirect to Page", and set it to redirect to Page 2.

Step 5: Implementing Basic Validation for Email and Phone Number
To implement basic validation for email and phone number fields, you can use Webflow's built-in form validation feature.

For the email field, select the field, go to its Settings panel, and enable the "Email" option under the "Validation" section.

For the phone number field, select the field, go to its Settings panel, and enable the "Custom" option under the "Validation" section. Then, enter a regular expression pattern that matches the desired phone number format.

Step 6: Utilizing the Form Success Message Setting
Webflow allows you to customize the success message that appears after a form submission. To utilize this setting, select the form element, go to its Settings panel, and under the "Success state" section, enter your custom success message.

That's it! You've successfully created a 2-page sign-up form on Webflow with data passing, custom waiting text, a pause on the first "next page" button, basic validation, and a custom form success message. Remember to save your changes and publish your site for the changes to take effect.
