I think you do a setEntry on each form before adding to the multiple form.

$form1->setEntry(1);
$multipleForm->addForm('form1', $form1);

$form2->setEntry(1);
$multipleForm->addForm('form2', $form2);

$multipleFormBuilder->render();

I need to allow a user edit there account email and display name, and there other profile information at the same time.

I have a multiple form builder created, and thought doing $multipleForm->render(Auth::user()->id); would put both forms in edit mode, and populate the forms with current values to be updated, but that doesn't see to be the case.

Trying to figure out how to do this.

You are a gentalman and a scholar sir.

I was trying to use setFormEntry which wasn't working.

thanks!

 //Add the forms
        $this->addForm('user', $userForm->setEntry(Auth::user()->id));
        $this->addForm('profile', $profileForm->setEntry(Auth::user()->id));
