Current Version: v2023-5-24 (release notes)

OpenCart Versions: 1.5.2.x - 4.0.2.x

To Purchase: Visit OpenCartX or opencart.com

Image Image Image

Quickly and easily create any kind of form you want for your OpenCart store. Form Builder Pro can create forms with any field types that you want, record responses to those forms, e-mail the results to the administrator and/or the customer, and display the recorded responses in a report. Start expanding the information you collect from customers by creating contact forms, quote request pages, reservation forms, surveys, and more!

  • Upload and go — requires no modification to core files.
  • Take advantage of the built-in extension updater. All that's required is to enter your current license key and click "Update".
  • Forms are standard modules, so you can choose where you place them directly from the OpenCart admin panel. All form validation and submission is done using ajax, which means it can safely be used on any page you want.
  • Drag and drop fields to position them, choosing from a variety of field types, including:
    - Product/category/manufacturer auto-complete
    - Captcha
    - Checkboxes
    - Date and time
    - E-mail address
    - Multi-file upload
    - Hidden data
    - HTML block
    - Radio buttons
    - Select dropdown
    - Multi-select box
    - Text input
    - Password input
    - Textarea input
    - Submit button
  • Use dependent fields, hiding a field from view until its parent field has a particular value selected.
  • Pull information from the URL query string into form fields, such as pulling the product name and model from a product_id in the URL.
  • Set all front-end language for the form directly through the admin panel, with multi-lingual support.
  • Quickly create a dedicated form page using the "Create Form Page" button. This creates a layout, information page, and associated module for the form with a single click. This gives it all the properties of an Information page, including SEO URLs, and the ability to display in the list of bottom footer links.
  • Customize both the admin e-mail and customer e-mail messages, including any HTML content you want and the ability to embed form responses and store information within the message.
  • View a report of responses for a form, with both individual response listings and a summary of responses. Reports are exportable as CSV files, as well.
  • For a version with a few less features, check out the standard Form Builder.

Form Builder has been updated to v203.1

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the differences between OpenCart 1.5 and OpenCart 2.0, I had to completely rewrite Form Builder from scratch. In the process I was able to improve the admin interface and add some new features, but because of this, updates for the new version will not be free.

If you purchased Form Builder within the last 30 days, please [url=http://at%20www.getclearthinking.com/contact]contact me[/url] with your order number and I can switch your order over to the new version. If you purchased beyond 30 days and would like to upgrade to the new version, I'm offering an upgrade discount of 50% off the current price of $99.99, or a price of $49.99 USD, when purchased through OpenCartX.

If you'd like to get the new version for the discounted price, you can [url=http://at%20www.getclearthinking.com/contact]contact me[/url] with your OpenCartX account e-mail address, and I will apply a credit to your account. You can then add the extension to your cart and proceed through checkout to purchase it for the discounted price.

Release Notes:
- Added: compatibility with OpenCart 2.0.0.x - 2.0.3.x
- Added: many new features!
  • Hugely improved drag and drop design: it's much easier now to see how your form will look before viewing the live form on the front-end
  • Dependent fields: you can make a field appear only when its parent has a particular value selected
  • Multi-file capable File Upload fields
  • Captcha fields now use Google's reCAPTCHA
  • Forms can now be set to not record responses to the database
  • Form reports can now be exported to a CSV file
  • The database table now has a "readable_response" column, for better readability when viewing directly within the database
- Fixed: file names in attachments display incorrectly
- Fixed: customer responses are incorrectly displayed inline
- Fixed: url-encoded characters for shortcodes not being processed properly
- Removed: "answered" column from the "form_response" table, due to low use
- Removed: password option from the general settings area, due to low use
- Updated: Date/Time fields use an updated picker not reliant on jQuery UI nor the built-in OpenCart picker
- Updated: Report is now within the form settings
- Updated: IP address in Report is now linked to the customer IP filter page
- Updated: file extension and file size settings now affect the entire form

Updated to v210.1

Release Notes:

- Renamed extension from "Form Builder" to "Form Builder Pro", since there is now a less powerful version available (http://www.opencartx.com/form-builder). File names and the database table are still the same, so it only affects the name shown in the admin.
- Added: compatibility with OpenCart 2.1.0.x
- Added: [cart_contents] and [customer_ip] shortcodes for e-mail settings
- Added: "Positioning" setting, so you can choose between Block and Absolute positioning. Block positioning may fix some visual issues caused by the template using absolute positioning, so give it a try if your form looks off
- Fixed: form responses cannot be deleted in the Form Report
- Fixed: "Undefined index: in" error
- Fixed: "Undefined index: option value" error on OpenCart 2.0 installations
- Fixed: some issues specific to OpenCart 2.0.0.0 installations
- Fixed: SMTP issues on OpenCart 2.0 versions
- Fixed: fields not being saved properly in some older OpenCart versions
- Updated: removed fixed positioning that was used for the admin panel Fields column, since it could have trouble on small screens
- Updated: changed overflow on front-end template from "scroll" to "hidden"
- Updated: form fields are now responsive, and will be stacked vertically when the window width is 767px or under. You can change this value in this file: /catalog/view/theme/default/template/module/form_builder.tpl
