CiviForm documentation

Welcome to the documentation for Civiform.

How to make changes to the docs

Updating a page

• Updates should be made directly in the markdown files in ‘docs’ directory of the GitHub repository.
• Anyone can click ‘Edit on GitHub’ for any page within the docs site, which will take you directly to the markdown file for that page on GitHub.
• For example, if you want to update the Glossery page, you should make edits to this markdown file on GitHub.
• Updates must be made via pull request.

Creating a new page

• To create a new page, find the appropriate section in GitHub to which you’d like to add the new page
• Select 'Add File' > 'Create New File.'
• Write your file in Markdown and submit via pull request.

Organizing the table of contents

• Updates to the sidebar and table of contents can be made in the SUMMARY.md file

Adding markdown

• Reference this guide on writing simple syntax and follow Gitbook specific syntax below:

• Drop-downs (as seen on on How does CiviForm work?): <details><summary>TITLE OF DROPDOWN</summary>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
