3.Update Form

• Click "Details".
• In this window, you can change/update the data of the form.
• For status, if you have not yet created the form itself (Template), the form can not be published. To do so, see next step.

4.Create Form Template (Form builder window)

• To create the form template, in the "Form Template" row (In the previous picture), click the "Edit" button.

• In this window you actually build the form itself.

• This is jQuery formBuilder plugin for drag and drop form creation.

• Controls:

  • header
  • text
  • textarea
  • paragraph
  • select
  • checkbox-group
  • radio-group
  • file
  • date
  • number

• Action Buttons:

  • Clear - Removes all fields you've added.
  • Save - Saves the form template you've created.
  • Preview - Displays (popup) a form preview.
  • Close - close the Form builder window.

• For example:

• After you've finished building the form template, click "Save" on the Action Buttons.

5. Publication of the form

• After you've built the form template (in the previous step), you can now publish the form by selecting "Published" in the status row ("Update" window, step 3).

• And click "Save".

• Click the "Details" button again (as in step 3). Below the "Status" row will be a table and a link to the form page itself ("Web form") and a link to the form's management page ("Admin web form"):

• Very important: To edit the form template, you must change the status to "unpublished" and save. Then the "Edit" button will be available. Can not edit while the form is in "Published" status.
