form Builder

First of all, sry if this post is already in here, i tried to search the forum but i received a timout on all my searches. :-(

Im looking for a tool/module for DNN 0484 that can be used to build simple custom forms.
I tried the feedback module, but it lack ability to insert text and also it only holds 3 specific fields.

Ive found the form Builder 2.0 which is basically what im looking for, though a little overkill for my needs, however its a $150 module that according to the publisher will only work with one single install of DNN.

As I run more DNN sites for customers, that licensing aint gonna work for me, as I cant charge a customer a $150 for a form that maybe just consist of 2 textboxes and a dropdown list and thats not even including any margin for myself. :lol:

Anyone have any ideas?

Thx in advance!! :-)

Re: form Builder

I can certainly recommend OpenWebStudio for all forms and processing.

It's a free developer tool where you create configurations that can then run as a DNN module, a scheduled item, or a skin object.

There are samples in the forums to get you going, including a simple contact form which would give you a good idea how it works.

Re: form Builder

An easy form builder for DNN 4, I can recommend, is free Helferlein forms from www.helferlein.com

Re: form Builder

Hi sizZler, I have tried a number of form builders including Open Web Studio like David mentioned and also XMOD. Haven't tried Helferlein though. I recently tried DotNetMushroom RAD and it rocks! It's like Microsoft Access for DotNetNuke and I started to use it almost immediately because it's not as complext as Open Web but at the same time it is not as limited as XMOD. Plus they have excellent support. Their site is www.dotnetmushroom.com Cheers Rob

Re: form Builder

I also want to put in a plug for FormMaster by Code5 System. Available on Snow, very intuitive yet full featured application.
