FormBuilder 2 is a Craft CMS plugin that lets you create & manage forms for your front-end. Entries get stored to database so you can easily view your submission or export them.

---

Front-End Template Usage

Take a look at sampleForm.twig for required code. You will need to copy everything in that file and paste it to where you want to display your form.

---

Spam Protection

There are 2 options for spam protection, Time Submissions and Honeypot method.

1. Time Submission

Time submission will prevent spam bots for submitting the form too quickly. You need to enter a time (seconds) it should take a real person to submit a form. Typically 3 seconds is good enough.

2. Honeypot Method

With honeypot there is a hidden field that should be left blank. When spam bots run through the form they tend to fill out all the fields. If the honeypot field will get field the submission will fail. Real people will not be able to fill out this field so the form will submit succesfully.

File Uploads

Create an Asset field and add it to your form. You need to select Has File Uploads box when creating your form to make sure files get submitted.

---

Email Notifications

Set up your forms to send email notifications to any emails you like. Email notifications can be customized a little. You can choose between plain text or an HTML email template. For each option you can add an optional body and footer text. If you going with HTML template you can upload a custom logo, pick background color and add container width.
