Joomla Forms 1.5.0 Released
Today we're glad to present you a new version of Balbooa Joomla Forms. So, let's look at what's new you will get after updating.
The Column Width
As you know, the component Forms allows creating multiple column layouts. In version 1.5 we have added a possibility to change the width of columns!
In previous versions, the width of columns was established. For example, two columns layout consisted of two columns, the width of each was 50%. Now, you can easily change the column width.
Import / Export
Now, you have the possibility to move Forms between sites. It's incredibly useful and comfortable, especially if you have a long multi-page forms.
To export the forms you need to select them in the list and click on the button "Export". You can export several Forms at once!
In order to import forms, you need to click on the button "Import" and download a previously exported file.
Cart
Starting with version 1.3, you can create online order Forms. Joomla Forms allows you to create quick and easy order Forms with calculation fields and payment gateway.
In version 1.5 you have an opportunity to display the Cart as in each Online Store. The Cart can display the Name of items, Price, Quantity and Total.
To display a Cart, in Forms options ➝ Payment you need to select "Display Cart".
Calendar Tool
The calendar field can be made as a required field. The Forms will not be sent until the user will select a date.
The most important that we have improved the design of the calendar. Your users will be surprised to see a new modern design of calendar on your website in selecting the date.
Improved UI
In version 1.3, we have changed the manner of adding values into fields:
- Checkbox
- Radio
- Select Multiply
- Dropdown
As a result, our users have faced a problem. Let suppose that you need to add 50 values for the Dropdown field. Before, you should add each value apart, clicking on the icon “+” and enter a value.
In the new version of the Forms, we have simplified the manner of adding values. You need to click on the icon "+", the modal window will open, there you can add a list even with 100 values.
Update Notification
We decided to make an Update Notification, which will announce about new version release with an offer to upgrade.
