Forms

Form Settings

The Forms admin screen is where you create starter forms, review discovered forms, configure storage, and edit email messages.

Forms Screen#

TemplateX adds a top-level Forms admin menu when form runtime is available.

From that screen you can:

  • create a starter form partial
  • open form settings
  • delete starter form source files
  • review saved submissions
  • export form data

Starter forms are written to resources/views/partials/forms.

Per-Form Settings#

Each form has settings for:

  • saving submissions
  • sending an admin notification
  • admin recipient
  • from email and from name
  • reply-to form field
  • notification subject and body
  • sending a submitter confirmation
  • submitter email field
  • confirmation subject and body

The settings page includes live email previews and test send actions.

Global Settings#

Form settings in template-x.config.json control whether forms and submission storage are enabled:

In WordPress admin, open TemplateX > Settings, switch to Extensions, and enable Forms to edit these global settings from the UI.

jsontemplate-x.config.json
{  "forms": {    "enabled": true,    "submissions": true  }}

When forms are disabled, form runtime is not active. When submissions are disabled, emails can still be sent but submissions are not stored.
