I’ll leave it for you to examine them and figure them out if you’re using the same template as I am.

You’ll recognize some of the chunks (the header and footer) from our previous installments, and you’ll also notice a few new ones. I have saved this as a template that I call 7in1-contact and applied it to my contact page. Vivamus elementum semper nisi.Aenean vulputate eleifend tellus. Nullam dictum felis eu pedemollis pretium. In enijusto, rhoncus ut, imperdiet a, venenatis vitae, justo.

I have then gone ahead and using what we learned before, used several chunks to simplify things 🙂 Here’s my template code so far for your reference 🙂ĭonec pede justo, fringilla vel, aliquet nec, vulputate eget, arcu. I then copied this code and pasted it into MODx, using that to form my contact form template. This allowed me to only see the outputted HTML with no PHP code. Since my contact page is actually a PHP script, what I did was open the page in my browser, and then I right-clicked to view source. The first thing we need to do is grab the HTML/CSS off the page and port it into MODx, if you haven’t done so already. Our mission is to port this into MODx and have the contact form retain its look and layout but be processed completely by MODx, so let’s dive in 🙂 Looking at the static Contact page that comes with the template, this is what we have: All we need is the form HTML code and then we will use FormIt to do the rest 🙂 However, since we’re porting this into MODx, we don’t need that PHP code as MODx will handle all our form processing. If you were using this template to build a static site then that would come in handy, since you would use just use the existing PHP code to do your form processing. An important note here is that if you’re using the same template that I am, you will notice that the contact page is actually a php page, with PHP scripting in it. I hope that by now you have used what we’ve learnt so far and ported your inner page templates into your MODx site.

If you can think of any uses of FormIt that would be interesting to you please feel free to leave a message in the comments and I will explore it, time permitting. As I explore other possible uses I will post tutorials on those. You can probably use FormIt for any and all of these purposes, but so far I have only used it for creating contact forms, and this is what I will be covering in this installment. Other uses include lead capture, information entry, etc. There are many reasons to use forms on your website, the primary one that’s used across almost all websites being to create a contact interface. FormIt is the MODx Revolution equivalent of eForm, but it is a completely different snippet. If you’ve used MODx Evolution, you may have used eForm for generating and processing your forms. Part 6: Working with Template Variables (TVs)įormIt is a snippet that gives you the ability to process dynamic forms within MODx Revolution. Part 3: Basic Configuration and Installing Extras We’re going to start with the HTML code for the contact page that comes with the template we’re using, and transform that into a dynamic contact form using the FomIt snippet. At the end of the last installment I encouraged you to apply what we’ve learned so far and port in the inner pages for your template. We’re using the 7 in 1 Business Success Site Template from Themeforest, although you can follow along with any template that you choose.
