Forms for Plone

Project description

Fury Github Travis CI status Coveralls status

The add on collective.easyform adds Plone content types for form creation.

EasyForm provides a Plone form builder through-the-web using fields, widgets, actions and validators (based on Dexterity). Form input can be saved or emailed. A simple and user-friendly interface allows non-programmers to create custom forms.

Note: This Plone package is similar to Archetypes based Products.PloneFormGen for Plone versions 1 to 4. Dexterity is a new platform for content types in Plone and will be used instead of Archetypes in Plone 5.

Usage

  • Install product (in your buildout.cfg add ‘collective.easyform’ to the eggs section), rerun your Plone instance and activate EasyForm.

  • Choose EasyForm from the toolbars ‘Add new’ menu. Insert form title, description and other settings.

  • Add fields or fieldsets to create a unique form that will meet your particular requirements. There are enough basic field types to satisfy any demands:

    • File Upload,

    • Text line (String),

    • Integer,

    • Yes/No,

    • Date, Date/Time,

    • Floating-point number,

    • Choice,

    • Rich Text,

    • Image,

    • Multiple Choice,

    • Text,

    • Password,

    • ReСaptcha.

  • Continue to customize form by setting the order of fields, defining required and hidden ones, choosing validator, if necessary, and other field type specific settings.
