Is there any way to create a custom form with ez witout creating my own extension? With custom i mean that any non administrator user can be able to create a form in an easy way, without creating a class and with different fields each time.Thanks

I quite agree - this is perhaps one of the weekest points about eZ.I would suggest a solution based on custom tags, e.g. a start form tag, different field tags and an end form tag. This would also make it much easier to put some design on your form - as it is now there are not many possibiblities to chenge the layout of the form

Hi there
We have developed a "form builder" addon to eZ publish that we hope to have available via the eZ online shop very soon.
It basically allows you to define forms and have them included in a content type via a datatype. Form results can be emailed and/or stored in the database where they can be exported in CSV format.

Is content entered into the form stored in the new attribute, or is it parsed into existing ez attributes?
Cheers,

Content is stored in a databae table. The form defination & results are independant of existing eZ attributes. A new datatype is used to link a form to a content object.

Hey Bruce!
Is it possible to add some screenshots and maybe add a link to a live example of how this can be used?
