Simple Custom Forms lets you make your own forms, such as a contact form, a survey or an application. Responses are saved on the site and can also be emailed to your admins.
ACP > Modules > Forms > Simple Custom Forms
Tools > Create a Custom Form:
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Form Name | Lowercase letters and underscores, such as contact_us. The form will be at yoursite.com/form/contact_us. |
| Form Title | Shown above the form and as the page title |
| Form Message | Optional text above the form, for instructions |
| Form Login | Only signed-in users can see the form |
| Form Unique | Each user can send the form only once. Needs Form Login. |
| Form Notify | Email each response to the master admins, or to all admins, or only store it |
The form starts with a single Content field. You go straight to the Form Designer, where you add your own fields and change that one.
Visitors who aren't signed in also get a spam-bot check box.
Version 1.3.8 and earlier don't save the Form Notify choice when a form is created, so new forms always email the master admins. Change it under settings after creating the form. Those versions also don't stop a second response with Form Unique. Both are fixed in version 1.4.0.
The Form Browser tab lists your forms. Each form has these buttons:
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| The form name | Opens the form |
| responses | The responses it has received |
| fields | Opens it in the Form Designer |
| settings | Changes its title, message and options |
| delete | Deletes it |
yoursite.com/form/(name) to your menu.Admins choose how they hear about new responses with New Form Response in their Notifications settings.
