Simple form
You will create a simple form with one field of type text and it will have a registration control configured to show it as dialog.
- Start with creating the page in Confluence.
- While in the editor type "{" (without quotes) and start typing form.
- Choose from the list suggested: ConfiForms Form macro. This is you main container for the form. It defines form properties and rules. There are a lot to choose from, but for our simple case the defaults are OK.
- Click "Insert" and the macro get's inserted to the page
- Go to ConfiForms Form macro body and add there ConfiForms Field Definition macro (you can add many, but we are creating a form with just one field). To find ConfiForms Field Definition macro quickly, while inside the ConfiForms Form macro body type "{" (again, without quotes) and start typing "defini" - it will auto-suggest you the ConfiForms Field Definition
- We use default 'text' type and will have just one field of type text. There are more than 30 field types available for you to choose from!
- Remember, ConfiForms Form and ConfiForms Field Definition macros are always together. ConfiForms Form macro defines the rules and properties of the form and ConfiForms Field Definition macro(s) define form fields
- The form is basically ready. But there is no "registration button"!
- For enabling form registrations use ConfiForms Registration Control macro. This macro tells how the form should be rendered. It could use the default (card) layout and render it as dialog or as embedded to the page. But you can also have you own layout for the form: this is done by customizing ConfiForms Registration Control macro body and placing there ConfiForms Field macro(s). For this example we choose to have a default layout and will render the form as a pop-up dialog.
