Front-End Tips

Required Fields​

Just use some CSS to automatically add 'required field' asterisk to form inputs:

.required:after { 
    content:" *"; 
}

Hide the Honeypot for Real​

Every rendered Form-Builder-Form adds a Honeypot-Field by default to prevent form spams (Read more about it here. To keep the field real as possible, we can't add a display:hidden; inline style - it could be exposed by bots. Sometimes, Chrome will add some data to this field, if someone is using the autofill-feature.

To prevent this, just add some css:

input[name$='[inputUserName]'] {
    display: none;
}

You can also disable the honeypot field entirely by setting the use_honeypot_field configuration flag to false.

Hide reCAPTCHA Badge on documents without pages​

If you're using the reCAPTCHA globally, the script will add an badge at right corner on every page. Since this is not quite pretty you may want to hide it on every page except on documents with a form:

html:not(.form-builder-rec3-available) .grecaptcha-badge {
    visibility: hidden;
}

With this, the badge is only visible if a form builder form shows up. Read more about the reCAPTCHA Field here.

Multi File Validation​

You may want to add some more attention to the upload field if it's in a required state:

.dynamic-multi-file.is-invalid .dropzone {
    border: 1px solid rgb(255, 0, 0);
}

Conditional Logic​

If you want to use the conditional logic feature, you need to add a custom toggle class:

.fb-cl-hide-element {
    display:none;
}

HTML in Checkbox / Radio Labels​

Formbuilder allows you to use HTML tags in checkbox and radio labels. Just use the translation html editor to define some html label:

Choice Meta Attributes​

If you're using some choice meta attributes, you need to adjust your theme:

{# templates/bundles/OpenDxpFormBuilderBundle/form/theme/bootstrap_4_layout.html.twig #}
{% extends "@!FormBuilder/Form/Theme/bootstrap_4_layout.html.twig" %}

{% block widget_attributes -%}

    {# example: tooltip meta #}
    
    {% if attr['data-meta-tooltip'] is defined %}
        {% set attr = attr|merge({'data-meta-tooltip': attr['data-meta-tooltip']|trans }) %}
    {% endif %}

    {{ parent() }}

{%- endblock widget_attributes %}

{% block checkbox_radio_label -%}

    {# example: relation meta #}
    
    {{ parent() }}
    
    {% if attr['data-meta-relation-' ~ app.request.locale ~ '-id'] is defined %}
        {{ opendxp_asset(attr['data-meta-relation-' ~ app.request.locale ~ '-id']).thumbnail('content').html|raw }}
    {% endif %}

{%- endblock checkbox_radio_label %}
