Advancedform_XH - text position

Post by Nicky » Thu May 31, 2018 4:00 am

In standard layout and in all example forms the form to fill in is positioned to the right of the text.

However I use some very long 'text' so the layout looks not ok.

Is it possible to put the text above the labels instead of at the right?

1. Export the form in backend - icon right to red "-" icon yourform.tpl and yourform.css will be generated.
2. Adjust generated template and stylesheet.

But it's awful to ask without any effort to find the answer yourself.

Correct!
Background:
In standard the form is in a table-layout.
After generate a template, the layout is <div> -> better styling.

The button to generate the template: Plugins-> Advancedform -> Mail Forms -> see image below

Hi thanks,

I put 3 files in the mentioned folders, but no form 'Tata' shows up in cmsimple plugin.

I'm probably missing a step..

The template is no plugin itself. It appears in Plugins>Advancedform>Mail Forms and the name shall be used in plugins call.

Ooops, is Advancedform_XH not compatible with latest cmsimple_XH 1.7.2 or is something additional needed to make it work?
Thx
