Creating and editing web forms

This page is designed to create new web forms and edit the parameters of existing ones.

The system provides the following two editing modes:

simple mode - stipulates the simplified procedure of creating and editing web forms (without using fields, statuses for the web form results and creating the templates for filtering and displaying the list of the web form results);
extended mode - provides interface allowing to customise all the web form parameters: create fields, edit web form results, and also connect custom templates for filtering and displaying the list of the web form results.

You can choose the web form creation and editing mode on the module settings page.
