Dave and Co,
I don't see it in the forums or in the AddOns section. Is there an availability, a plan for, already done before and purchasable, addon or plugin for simple form generation?
You've got a code generator tool that can handle basic html, a way to interface it, etc...So, we essentially would choose as type of function "form" or "mail form", type in the fieldnames and choose what type of field from a dropdown like "bullet", "data entry", "dropdown with SELECT" etc. choose a form method like "post" and give the email address and click code generate and the basic forms page code is generated.
Anything like that available.? Already done?

Hi Terry,
We don't have anything like that yet, but we have some ideas for things moving forward.
Part of the challenge is that automated solutions often aren't easily extensible, and extensible solutions (such as providing copy and paste code examples) aren't easily automated. You may see some advanced on that front in future, though.
For now, I've attached the basic forms we use as a starting point when creating an email form or creating a form that adds a record to the database.
Hope that helps!
