Forms & Surveys

Note to Developers

This is not a development and play area, even on the core development site. This area is for developing content that goes into the CMS release and is used in project release testing. If you are running developer level testing, use the CMS Test Area.

General Forms

The CMS is packaged with a series of general forms that are useful right out of the box, and can be modified as needed. New forms are added with each release.

Module Forms

Various CMS modules come with special fixed forms or starting point forms.

Business Directory Forms

The simple Business Directory module includes forms for joining the directory and managing directory listings.

Call for Abstracts

The Call for Abstracts form (usually used in conference management websites) is a built using the Forms Manager so it's easily re-configurable. However it connects to hard coded system functionality, so customisations should only be performed by someone with developer level knowledge and the ability to fully test changes.

Donation Form

The donation form is a specialised form widget that allows collection and online payment of regular and one-off donations.

Membership Forms

The membership modules including configurable forms for joining, upgrading, and renewing membership, as well as requesting and managing organisation level membership sub accounts.

Subscribe Forms

There are various different ways to present subscription forms on the website.

Form Tools

Form tools and widgets are provided to generate reports and manage form data.

Forms Submissions Report with Login Prompt

Display and manage form results. This page can be made publicly visible and will show a login prompt before displaying submissions. The form submissions widget is more useful in intranets/extranets than in public websites.

View/Edit Form Submission

This page is for testing the view/edit form widget. It needs an encrypted key passed to it, usually automatically from another component such as the Form Submissions widget. Nothing will be visible without the key. You wouldn't normally make this page visible in navigation.

All Form Submissions

View a report of all form submissions in one big list.

Test Forms

This container holds forms that can be used for testing layout and CMS functionality while building a site.
