XForms

Vote:
 

I've never used XForms within EPiServer in the past, however we are now looking at it for a new piece of work. I've read through the developer documentation and looked at the Alloy example and they make sense from a development perspective. I do have a couple of questions from an Editors perspecitve:

  1. How do I create a new form and view existing forms? At the moment I'm having to find a page that has a block with an XForm property on and view it that way, but there must be another way of viewing forms in the system?
  2. How can I export all form responses into another format, for example Excel?

Thanks for any help

Hi,

  1. All the various forms that have been created are administered in the "Select Form" dialog. Have never seen a central place other than that.
  2. Form data can be exported via the "View data" link next to the form button.

More info can be found here:

Thanks for those links. I've had a look through and those are the ways I'm using the forms and retireving their values at the moment.

What I was hoping to find, is a page within the CMS / Dashboard gadget that shows all Forms within the system and provides the functionality to export their data.

Do you know of anything similar to this?

Oh yes, there is a gadget in fact. Forgot about the Forms Viewer.

Have a look at this: http://webhelp.episerver.com/CMS/7.1/EN/#Gadgets/Shared_Gadgets.htm?Highlight=forms viewer
