Creating Custom Settings

[Abishek Srikaanth]

Hi,

First of all the plugin is awesome, on of the best that I have looked
at when it comes to form builder, with good documentation.
I am contacting you because I require a specific functionality that I
am looking for on the form builder.

Is there a way to introduce custom settings for a field on this
plugin. I would like to add more settings to the fields that I add to
the form builder.
For example: I would like to have a setting added to enable auto
complete for a textbox and then if it is enabled, provide the url for
querying to auto complete.

Similarly I would like to do for other fields as well. Would it be
possible to introduce custom settings to the fields of the plugin as
required?

Thanks and Regards

Hi there,

Thanks for your interest to the plugin.

You can add custom settings to the following code block, it is JSON:

	options: { 
		settings: {
                  ..........
                }
         }

As the plugin designed in a way that support multilingual, there are two type of settings, general (apply to all languages) and language-specific. Please see the sample code at https://github.com/limcheekin/jquery-form-builder-plugin/blob/master/src/js/jquery.formbuilder.singlelinetext.js.

Also, please read http://code.google.com/p/jquery-form-builder-plugin/wiki/HowToCreateNewField for new field creation.

Hope this help. I know the documentation was not intuitive and readable enough, but it is what the project have at the moment.

Best regards,
