It is a good idea to have your form planned out in advance before diving in and creating a form. In the plan, you should take into account the name of the form, the instructions for the form, the submission message for the form, the elements to be contained in the form and what HTML elements will be used to represent your form elements, and what type of users the form is geared towards (anonymous or registers visitors to your site). Once you have planned out the settings and elements for your form follow these steps to create your form:
Make sure you are logged into an administrative account that has permissions to use the Form Generator.
From your Control Panel, select the Site Content tab.
Find and select the Form Generator module.
From the Main Menu, select New Form.
You will be shown the Settings for your new form.
Fill out the Name, Instructions, Submission message, and other settings for your form.
If your form falls into one of your site's categories, specify it as well.
Click Save Settings to save your settings and begin adding elements to your form.
You will notice that the menu now has a Settings option and an Elements option. Selecting Settings will take you to editing the settings for your form and selecting Elements will take you to adding/editing of your form's elements.
To add an element to your form, select the element type you wish to add from the tool bar at the bottom and click Add.
See the section for adding the element you selected for more specific instructions for that element.
Continue adding elements until you have all your planned elements within your form.
Take a final look at your form to make sure everything is in order and make changes where needed.
When you are sure your form is complete, click the Save Form button on the tool bar across the bottom to save your form.
