I have such ActiveForm in view. How to allow user in this view select number of children (form items) and submit all number of children the same model items.

<?php $form = ActiveForm::begin([]) ?>
    <div class="child_card">

            <?=$form->field($child, 'first_name', ['inputOptions' => ['placeholder' => 'Enter Your First Name']])?>

                <?=$form->field($child, 'middle_name',
                    ['inputOptions' => ['placeholder' => 'Enter Your Middle Name']])?>

                <?=$form->field($child, 'last_name', ['inputOptions' => ['placeholder' => 'Enter Your Last Name']])?>
                <br>

                <?=$form->field($child, 'gender', [
                    'template'     => '{label} <div class="field">{input}{error}{hint}</div>',
                    'inputOptions' => [
                        'placeholder' => 'Gender',
                    ],
                ])->dropDownList([

                    'female' => 'Female',
                ], ['class' => 'ui dropdown selection', 'prompt' => 'Gender'])->label('Select your gender')?>

        </div>
        <?php ActiveForm::end(); ?>

Answer 1

The answer is to use a simple for-loop.

Example of the view

<?php $form = ActiveForm::begin() ?>

<?php foreach ($children as $i => $child): ?> //there are multiple persons (children)

...

 <?=$form->field($child, "[$i]birthdate_month", [...])->dropDownList([
                    '1'  => 'January',
                    ...
                ])?>

...

<?php endforeach; ?>

...

<?=Html::submitButton('Save', ['class' => 'ui primary button big'])?>
...

<?php ActiveForm::end(); ?>

And use in in controller

Person::loadMultiple($children, Yii::$app->request->post());
