How does the conditional showing/hiding of fields work?Can you elaborate on this one more, not sure I'm following. If you are referring to the "conditional" option that is a grouping of conditional validation for form fields to be grouped so that at least one of the grouped conditions is true.
Formz has different methods for what to do when a submission occurs. Save to db only, save to db and send email. I would like these and also "only send email" and "custom action" (which could be linked to a snippet or so)This is stubbed, just haven't turned on yet. Currently its set to use a parameter or property setting to disable form "saves" thus allowing the emails to be sent with all the form data of course.
Where/how do I set the email templates?See prior note, I messed up a name change on the variables. The two that are used are called emailOwnerTpl and emailUserTpl in the chunks. I'll add more on this in the documentation.
- Actually the validation methods in mxFormBuilder are already much nicer than in Formz. Is the custom regex field actually also for validation? If so, this would make the custom error message field even more necessary because a custom regex validation also need to throw a custom error message when validation failsYes, it's another validation option. Ditto on the custom error.
I had this at one time, but took it out - not sure why I did. I'll get that option added back in, why not.
- In Formz the field placeholder for the email template is shown in the fields grid. I like this but it would be even nicer if we could set custom placeholder names (do they need to be unique? If so every change to a placeholder name would need a db check to see if there's already a field with the same name, this could also be made a little bit more custom in combination with the next point. ie. add custom form ID as prefix to the field placeholder: ID=contact, default placeholder for field1 = contact_field1, and this would be customizable to contact_names or so)
Again had this at one point, will get this option put back in place. I think the thought was why add more fields that typical users, at least I think, would be makign edits to those. I think there is value in them so I'll get them put back in I just need a clean way to present them so they are not taking up extra space.
- Formz allows to set a custom ID (identifier) for the form, can be used as class or could be used to generate the placeholders like explained above.
Save just hung, although a page refresh shows the form was in fact saved.Can you check the error log and see if anything is there, not sure whats causing this unless a field didn't get setup correctly.
Rather startling when using the context menu to edit the various features of the form. It needs some kind of very clear indication of where I am. Usually updating or editing via a context menu like that brings up a popup/movable overlay rather than a change of page.Yes, agreed and I think changing to buttons in the grid row might be more intuitive, but I'm open to suggestions
What events (double-click, single-click, buttons) would make the most intuitive solution for navigating the elements of the form?
