ProForm is the first and most powerful drag and drop form manager for ExpressionEngine 2.0. It's designed to make creation and management of contact forms and other types of public forms easier for developers, content editors, and visitors - everyone who needs to interact with forms in any way. With ProForm, one line of template code can render simple contact forms, or complex multistep forms all created easily through its drag and drop form builder UI. ProForm also gives you precise control over your forms' markup through a full template pair - rendering a form is as easy as rendering your site's content - just the way it should be in ExpressionEngine. ** Full ExpressionEngine 2.10 Support! **

ProForm Plugins and Extensions

As part of ProForm’s expanding platform for advanced form handling in ExpressionEngine, I’ve been working on a few plugins which will be posted here.

     
  • ProForm Catchall - The ProForm Catchall field is a field plugin for ProForm that adds support for handling arbitrary fields posted to a form. When you don’t know which fields are needed ahead of time, ProForm Catchall comes to the rescue.

Proform is the best form solution on EE, the overall product is great however the decisive factor for me was that Proform provides the most comprehensive error validation out of the EE form addons available. Proform allows me to create forms that meet accessibility/usability requirements

I really like the ease of this product. However is there any code (html) that will but my created forms on to a page in structure or do I have to embed it through the template using {exp:} code? Thank you.

I tried out the various major form add-ons today, and at the end of the day, I chose ProForm.

There is certainly a learning curve, but it integrates nicely with the EE admin and offers a lot of powerful features.

ProForm’s up there with Structure, Matrix, and Playa as an add-on that we use on all of our EE projects. It’s works like it should, has a robust feature set, and most importantly, responsive and helpful support.
