![]() Notice on the bottom under Next submission order. (Closing prohibits further submissions by other users.) Keep the Total submissions at unlimited make sure Status of this form is ticked for Open. Also, you can add a re-direct page for the confirmation page. This page is a doozy, with many options to choose from my advice: choose wisely, little grasshopper.įirst one, most important: I recommend you place a confirmation message in the first box you have the option of using Full HTML, Filtered HTML, and Plain text. Scroll to bottom, click “Save e-mail setting.” Also check to make sure E-mail header is the right page from where the email are originating. Custom email/names should be used where you what the emails to go/or what you want the emails to be from called, when the Default email/name is incorrect E-mail from name should be that address as well. Make sure all the email addresses are correct. Under E-Mails, add the address where you want the comments from the form to be sent to, then click “Add”. The ones to be most concerned with are E-mails, and Form settings. OK? OK!īack under Webform, you can see there is a few more section to the right of Form components: Conditionals, Form validation, E-mails, Form settings. If any one of those red star areas is left blank, the user will not be able to move forward. This is something to be aware of, if you decided to hide the label. Notice that there is no red star anywhere near the “I’m glad” text field. Here’s what the final super simple form looks like: Name it “More comments (required)” choose textarea make it “Required” in the next window: make Validation “Required” and make sure Resizable is ticked under Display scroll down and click “Save component”. Finally, I placed the Label Display to None. I made the Display width 75 I added a Placeholder (to be shown inside field until user starts typing) I Prefixed the textbook with craziness, and Postfixed it with more craziness. In this window, check to make sure “Required” is ticked. Here, I’m going to get goofy to show you different things you can do with the form. You might want to tick “Unique,” under “Validations.” Scroll down to click on “Save component.” In the next window, make sure short form is checked for email format, and that “Required” is ticked. ![]() Just click on “Edit” beside the Email label, and on the next page, change the title in the label name. I forgot to label email “Email (required)”. Label it, “Email,” and change the type to “E-mail,” then tick the “Required” box. For now, nothing else is needed, so scroll all the way down and click “Save component” at the bottom. These preferences can be found on most of the component pages. Under this, you can change the label to be displayed above, inline, below the box description can be displayed above the field disable the field completely, or make it private, so only users with access can view the results. Here you can set the width of the component, add a placeholder in the box (like: Also check out the label display. Other fields that are worth looking at: Display. Also, on these required fields, I place in parenthesis (required). A red star will show up next to the label. A required value is a value that is needed to proceed. Scroll down the age to look over the other boxes you can use to manipulate this info, including making this box a required value. Note: this is only a partial screenshot of the page that comes up. The type is Textfield, so we’ll leave that. Let’s create a super simple form, which includes person’s name, email, an additional textfield for funnsies, and a comment box.įirst, we’ll click inside the “New component name” box, and type Name. The first one, form component, is where you add the important parts of the form being created, such as a person’s name, email, address, connection, and comments. There are five different sections under the Webform. It’s very similar to a non-form Drupal edit page, except for the tab just to the right of Edit says Webform. I created a Test page to show you how to create a form and how forms work. When it does get turn it on, the magic begins. Also, keep in mind, that once it is turned on, it is available on all pages you create within your site. In our set-up they are turned off to avoid confusion. Let me show you how.įorms are a part of Drupal that needs to be “turned on,” in order to work. But now, with a great support staff on hand, forms are super easy to build. Now, before Drupal, forms were a pain in keister to create. ![]() However, I thought I’d focus on one component of the page/site that we have not previously used before: forms. I cannot reveal the new start page, because we are still in the process of creating it. Currently, as you may remember, this is our start page. ![]() So, lately, I have been working on a new page/site for Digital Initiatives that will eventually become the start page/site for a variety of digital sites under our department. ![]()
