I see a need growing with the site I'm working with for end users to create their own web forms for different things. I don't want them going in to create a new class every time they need a new form. Is there a way to make a web form class where a user chooses the fields and the notification email address they want?
I really don't want to have to make a new class every time they need a new form, nor do I want may class list to be filled with classes that are only used once.
Thanks.

Hi, there are two ways to solve this. 1. create some general forms for them that fit 99% of their needs. Like some 'attend event form' where they can fill out the type of event, name , description, receiver and time. (email_receiver is the attribute that can be used as receiver)
2. Create a class group called Forms and let them create form classes there. Then use a general form template that loops true the attributes and displays the information_collectors, this one overrides on the class group. Note 1: class_group_override needs to be enabled in ini settings Note 2: there is a bug that was fixed in 3.9.2 and 3.8.8 when using node_view_gui together with class_group overrides

Have a look at Form Builder from designIT (http://ez.no/products/partner_products/form_builder). It makes it <b>very</b> easy to set up and manage forms.
