You can insert a form you've created into the body content area of a page. The process differs depending on whether you use standard forms or OpenForms forms.
- Insert a standard form in a page (legacy form building tool)
- Insert an OpenForms form in a page
Insert a standard form in a page
Open the WYSIWYG editor for the page you want to insert the form in. Position your cursor wherever you want the form to appear, click the Insert Form icon and choose your form from the list. It will appear in the WYSIWYG area.
Save and preview the page to see how the form looks alongside other page elements.
Please note that standard forms are a legacy form building tool and will not be supported or updated in a future product release. For a fully supported form building tool, we recommend using OpenForms. For more information on OpenForms, see Use OpenForms with OpenCities and the OpenForms help centre.
