Recite CMS allows you to manage forms that can be published on your web site. There are a number of pre-defined form types, each of which perform a different task.
For example, there is a form used for users to register on your site, a form for allowing them log in and another for letting them update their details. There is also a form that allows people to upload a file via their web site.
Custom form types can also be developed for Recite CMS. Refer to the Recite CMS
developer documentation at http://docs.recite.com.au
.
There are two different Control Panel widgets available to help you manage forms. These are as follows:
Forms. This widget lists all forms that exist for your site.
Form Viewer. This widget is for viewing the details of a single form. You cannot add this widget manually - it is automatically created when you click on a form in the Forms widget.
The forms widget can be added manually (from the Form Management
category in the widget browser), or you can create a new tab using the
Forms pre-defined layout.
The following figure demonstrates this layout. The tab is a two-column layout, with the Forms widget in the left column and a placeholder for viewing forms in the right column.
For the purposes of this chapter, I'll assume you're working with a tab having the same layout as the pre-built Forms tab.
