Form Template Processor for ProcessWire
ProcessWire FormTemplateProcessor module
Overview:
Module to let you use templates as web contact forms. Can send you email and/or save the submission to a page in your site. Intended to be a starting point and proof-of-concept, so you may want to take this further.
For more information: http://processwire.com/talk/index.php/topic,75.0.html
Designed for use with ProcessWire 2.0 or 2.1 http://processwire.com
Installation:
- Place FormTemplateProcessor.module in your site/modules/ directory.
- Login to ProcessWire admin and click to Modules.
- Click "Check for new modules".
- Click "install" next to the new FormTemplateProcessor module.
Usage:
- In admin, create the fields you want to be part of the form.
- Create a new template and assign your fields to this template.
- Create another template for your contact form page (if you don't already have one).
- Use the example below as a starting point for this contact form page:
$form = $modules->get('FormTemplateProcessor'); $form->template = $templates->get('my_contact_form_template'); // required $form->requiredFields = array('fullname', 'email'); $form->email = '[email protected]'; // optional, sends form as email $form->parent = $page; // optional, saves form as page echo $form->render(); // draw form or process submitted form
-
Use CSS to style the fields. See below for a suggested starting point:
.Inputfields, .Inputfields li { list-style: none; margin: 1em 0; padding: 0; }
.Inputfields li label { font-weight: bold; }
.Inputfields li p { margin: 0; }
.Inputfields li p.description { font-style: italic; }
.Inputfields textarea, .Inputfields .InputfieldMaxWidth { width: 100%; }
.Inputfields .InputfieldSubmit label { display: none; }
.ui-state-error-text { color: red; }
