Formidable Customizations and Email Shortcodes Add-Ons
Just wanted to let everybody know that I've just uploaded two add-on plugins to WordPress.org.
Formidable Customizations is a compendium of customizations and extensions for Formidable Pro that allows you to easily customize your form fields from one location. It provides features for Formidable Pro, Formidable Registration, and Formidable Plus.
I hope that some of you will request additional features. I added everything I could think of, but there's a lot of customizations I'm not aware of. Let me know what you think is missing, and I'll try to add it. (Provide code if you have it.) Current features below:
- Create custom masks for your form fields.
- Limit field characters.
- Last Updated By shortcode.
- Turn hidden user_id fields into dropdown menus on the front-end.
- Autogenerate usernames on registration.
- Easy password confirmation.
- Assign alternate roles on registration.
- Easily add avatars to registration.
- Formidable Plus: easily add arrow-key use in tables
- Formidable Plus: easily add tooltips in tables
Formidable Email Shortcodes is a very lightweight plugin I wrote because I needed a way to manage my forms' notification emails globally. I'm developing a corporate site that has over 40 forms, and then I'll be duplicating the site 17 times for different franchises, and I really didn't want to have to change the email addresses in 40+ forms, 17 times over. So this plugin solves that problem, but it is also useful for the same purpose on a much smaller scale. The email shortcodes work in the email notifications settings, in custom displays, well, they work everywhere on your WordPress site, so use them wherever you see fit. You set as many email addresses as you like, and assign them each a unique identifier. The shortcode uses the identifier to output the corresponding email address. Then, whenever needed, you can change the email address but keep the identifier, and the email address will change globally wherever the shortcode is used. Example:
You would set the email address like this in the plugin's settings page:
myemail@mydomain.com (contact)
And use this shortcode wherever you want to output that email address:
[frm_notify id="contact"]
Then if you need to change that email address later, just go to the settings page, change the email address, but keep the identifier, like this:
myotheremail@myotherdomain.com (contact)
You can set an unlimited number of email addresses, each with a different identifier of your choosing.
Hope everybody finds these useful. I love feedback.

Thanks Thom
This is a great Add On. Is it possible to customise the Registration Email Notification. Currently the standard FP doesn't support html.
Thanks

Is this plugin still maintained?

Just installed this and it corrupted my site! Here's what I'm seeing:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method FrmProFieldsHelper::get_media_from_id() in /users13/domains/concoursbuilder.us/web/concours-entry/wp-content/plugins/formidable-customizations/includes/ssfc-functions.php on line 212
How do I get out of this? Login to my website as admin and delete something? What do I delete?
Discussion closed.
