Using the Drag & Drop Editor for Basic Forms

TYPO3

Description

EXT:form provides a visual form editor for TYPO3 integrators and editors. Forms are built from form elements including basic inputs, special fields, select elements, file uploads, and container structures.

Goals

• I am able to build simple forms using the built-in drag and drop editor in the form framework.
• I know the different purposes of the mailer properties: From, To, Bcc, Cc, Reply-To, Return-Path and potential problems when sending emails.
• I know that EXT:form provides multiple finishers including sending an email to the website owner or redirecting a user to a specific page after the form has been submitted.
• I know that form field values can be referenced in finisher options using bracket syntax (e.g. {email-1}).
• I know that additional options (templateRootPaths, partialRootPaths, layoutRootPaths, variables, etc.) are only configurable via YAML and PHP, not in the backend editor.
• I know that, since TYPO3 v14, some form elements have RTE fields and email finishers and that I can create separate RTE presets for these elements.
