Hello,
for me worked the tutorial from Soma https://processwire.com/talk/topic/2089-create-simple-forms-using-api/
in most cases fine. (I HATE TO CODE FORMS BUT ITS NECESSARY )
This is for the PHP Code. For Example you can Put it in the contact-template.php
<?php
$out = '';
// create a new form field (also field wrapper)
$form = $modules->get("InputfieldForm");
$form->action = "./";
$form->method = "post";
$form->attr("id+name",'subscribe-form'); //generate the Form with <form id="subscribe-form" ...
// create a text input
$field = $modules->get("InputfieldText");
$field->label = "Name";
$field->attr('id+name','name');
$field->required = 1;
$field->attr("class" , $field->attr("class") . " form-control"); // generate <input id="name" class=" form-control ..... "
$form->append($field); // append the field to the form
// create a text input
$field = $modules->get("InputfieldText");
$field->label = "Adresse";
$field->attr('id+name','adresse');
$field->required = 1;
$field->attr("class" , $field->attr("class") . " form-control");
$form->append($field); // append the field to the form
// create a text input
$field = $modules->get("InputfieldText");
$field->label = "Plz/Ort";
$field->attr('id+name','plz');
$field->required = 1;
$field->attr("class" , $field->attr("class") . " form-control");
$form->append($field); // append the field to the form
// create email field
$field = $modules->get("InputfieldEmail");
$field->label = "E-Mail";
$field->attr('id+name','email');
$field->required = 1;
$field->attr("class" , $field->attr("class") . " form-control");
$form->append($field); // append the field
// create a text input
$field = $modules->get("InputfieldTextarea");
$field->label = "Nachricht";
$field->attr('id+name','text');
$field->attr("class" , $field->attr("class") . " form-control");
$field->required = 1;
$form->append($field); // append the field to the form
// oh a submit button!
$submit = $modules->get("InputfieldSubmit");
$submit->attr("value","Absenden");
$submit->attr("class"," btn btn-lg btn-primary");
$submit->attr("id+name","submit");
$form->append($submit);
// form was submitted so we process the form
if($input->post->submit) {
// user submitted the form, process it and check for errors
$form->processInput($input->post);
// here is a good point for extra/custom validation and manipulate fields
$email = $form->get("email");
if($email && (strpos($email->value,'@hotmail') !== FALSE)){
// attach an error to the field
// and it will get displayed along the field
$email->error("Bitte Email eingeben.");
}
if($form->getErrors()) {
// the form is processed and populated
// but contains errors
$out .= $form->render();
} else {
// do with the form what you like, create and save it as page
// or send emails. to get the values you can use
// $email = $form->get("email")->value;
// $name = $form->get("name")->value;
// $text = $form->get("text")->value;
//
// to sanitize input
$name = $sanitizer->text($input->post->name);
$adresse = $form->get("adresse")->value;
$plz = $form->get("plz")->value;
$message = $form->get("text")->value;
$subject = "Web Anfrage";
// $emailFrom = $form->get('email')->value;
$emailFrom = $sanitizer->email($form->get("email")->value);
$emailTo = 'youremail@domain.com';
$body = "Die Email ist von ".$name."\r\n"."\r\n".$adresse."\r\n".$plz."\r\n".$message;
mail($emailTo, $subject, $body, "From: $emailFrom");
$out .= "<h2>".$name."</h2><h2> Ihre nachricht wurde versendet.</h2>";
}
} else {
// render out form without processing
$out .= $form->render();
}
?>
and at the place where you will have your form you can use
<?php echo $out; ?>
Its not 100% perfect solution but as I was new to processwire and also PHP it works for me.
