Sorry - I am sure you get this question all the time but could not find a definitive answer.

How customizable are the forms that that are created for the Registration that the public user sees?

Is there some type of form builder from which you can create custom forms with radio buttons, text fields, drop downs, etc?

If so, is the layout CSS driven? I build systems for Accessibility so I need some level of control over the css.


Thank you.

Hello! You can add custom fields to your forms which show under the default form items (name, address, etc). You can do all of the usual form field types and can also make fee adjustments based upon the options users choose from form field options (such as dropdowns and checkboxes). You can also mark if the custom field is required or not.

For the default fields, you can Show/Hide them and also mark Required/Not Required.

For group registrations, you can mark which fields need used for each group member as well.

Yes, CSS is used for your usual styling elements. Thanks!

Just thought I would point out that on your FAQs for DTRegister you have that it will not work in Joomla 1.5.
But you are saying that it now does on other parts of your site.

I know it is hard to keep track of all those little things on an active site.

\"For the default fields, you can Show/Hide them and also mark Required/Not Required.\"

I don\'t see the ability to show hide, only mark as required.
I need to hide several of the default fields.

Where do I find this option.
