Copy of New Form Builder

The Forms tool allows you to create, edit, delete, and manage forms and questions. Creating a form is as simple as defining basic form information, choosing which questions/fields will be included on the form, selecting which products and/or packages, designing the look and feel, and dragging in questions and other elements onto the Form’s webpage using an easy to use WYSIWYG editor. When a user completes and submits a form, all of the demographic and transaction information from the form is saved in the ONEcount database.

\\

\\

When a user completes and submits a form, all of the information gathered from the form is entered into the ONEcount database. Plan forms carefully to ensure that you include questions and possible responses that will provide you with all the data you wish to collect from subscribers/purchasers.

\\

\\

**Questions are shared among ALL forms, so any changes made to question type, text, responses, alias, report header (See Question Builder - Create and Manage Questions for more detail) will change ALL forms, not just the form you are working on. Deleting a question will remove that question from ALL forms as well. **

15

**Changes made to form information, form layout, order of questions, and optional validations will NOT universally change forms – these changes will be applied only to the form you are working on.**

\\

Form-related tasks include:

20

21

* creating database fields/questions available for placement in online forms; (See __[[Questions - Create and Manage Questions>>url:http://docs.onecount.net:8090/display/OD/Questions+-+Create+and+Manage+Questions||shape="rect"]]__ for more detail.)

22

* creating new forms;

23

* managing existing forms;

24

* creating source codes that are used to track the source of a name/transaction;

25

* and creating individually branded, designed forms.

\\

The first task listed above – creating questions is accomplished using the Question Builder tool. The next two tasks – creating new forms and managing existing forms – are carried out using the Form Builder tool under INVENTORY. Creating source codes is handled under __[[Source Codes>>url:http://docs.onecount.net:8090/display/OD/Source+Codes+-+How+to+Create+and+Manage+Source+Codes||shape="rect"]]__ and creating branded forms is handled under __[[Brands>>url:http://docs.onecount.net:8090/display/OD/Brand+-+How+to+Create+and+Manage+Brands||shape="rect"]]__. All of these tools are found under INVENTORY.

PHASE F: DESIGNING THANK YOU PAGE

246

247

The 'ThankYou Page Design' tab helps in designing a thank you page after form has been submitted.

248

249

Below is a screen-shot of the default Thank you page template, that is automatically populated in the 'Thank you Page Design' tab.

250

251

[[image:attach:TYPageDesign-Aug22.png||height="400"]]

252

253

Up to four templates, that are drag-n-droppable, are provided in the right-hand panel. To view them, please click on the 'Thank you Templates' option in the right-hand panel.

254

255

[[image:attach:TYClosePanelAug23.png||height="250"]]

256

257

These templates can be further customized using the components from the form builder, such as the Submit button, Captcha, Demographics components, and such.

258

259

So, we now have three ways for designating a Thank you page:

260

261

~1. Provide a URL in the 'Thank you Page URL' field found in the 'Form Definition' tab. This has priority over the following two steps (2. and 3.)

262

263

[[image:attach:FormDefn-TYURLAug23.png||height="250"]]

\\

2. Choose a preferred template from the 'Thank you Page Design' tab. If step 1. is not provided, step 2. takes priority, if provided.

268

269

3. Using the default Thank you page. This comes into play if steps 1. and 2. are left blank. This is also what will be used for the older forms (that did not have the Thank You Page Design feature).

270

271

The older forms that did not have the 'Thank you Page Design' feature, will now include this feature so that the 'Thank you' pages are now customizable

272

273

The templates provided in the 'Thank you page Design' tab are responsive.

274

275

The default Thank you page looks as shown below:

276

277

[[image:attach:DefaultTY-Aug22.png||height="250"]]

278

279

The default values in the Thank you page are populated from the Config Manager.

280

281

To delete a template from the canvas, click on the 'trash can' icon found on the above toolbar.

282

283

[[image:attach:TYDeleteIconAug23.png||height="250"]]

\\

= ADDING BRAND HEADER AND FOOTER TO FORMS: =

363

364

There are two ways to add brand header and footer to form builder forms.

365

366

* You can add brand id at the end of Form URL to automatically apply brand header and footer for the form.

367

368

Ex: [[https:~~/~~/client.onecount.net/>>url:https://client.onecount.net/||shape="rect"]] /onecount/form/display.php?id=53464b88-c391-479f-82cf-e1cd19a870cd&brand=brandid

369

370

* By selecting a brand from the dropdown present in tab definition tab.

\\

Once brand is selected you can drag brand header and footer from design tab and edit them. Editing brand header and footer gives flexibility to remove or change design or text for the particular form.

\\

= CREATING POPUPS USING FORM BUILDER: =

379

380

These popups are used in action manager for targeting and for gating products. Below are the steps to create form which behaves as popup.

381

382

* Select the type of form from the dropdown in Form Definition tab.

383

* If form type is popup then popup config fields are displayed. Below are the fields which define behavior of popup.

384

** Popup Width - It define width of a popup.

385

** Popup Height – It define height of a popup.

386

** Popup Horizontal Position - It define the horizontal position of popup on screen.

387

** Popup Vertical Position – It define the vertical position of popup on screen.

388

** Popup Slide Position – It define from which side popup should slide before appearing on position.

389

** Popup Delay – It define how much time popup should take to appear on screen.

390

391

===== Prerequisite: As these forms appear as popup on the client site, you will need to add a CNAME record in your domain's DNS so that the pop-up and form code can be loaded from our servers into your domain. So if your domain is abc.com, you will need to add a CNAME record mapping oc.abc.com to <client>-[[reg.onecount.net>>url:http://reg.onecount.net||shape="rect"]]. Then this is done, any request going to oc.abc.com will actually to go your registration server at <client>-reg.onecount.net for loading the pop-up code and setting cookies. =====

392

393

===== · Popup setup for gating: Once popup is created you need to create the Packages/Products for gated content. While creating the Package/product you need to select “Form” as “Primary Form or Landing Url” option. Then select the popup form created in the previous step. A text box will be displayed as below =====

394

395

===== You can use this to ensure CNAME set up is done correctly. This box will be auto filled with <client>-[[reg.onecount.net>>url:http://reg.onecount.net||shape="rect"]] but If you need to gate a page or section on site [[abc.com>>url:http://abc.com||shape="rect"]] then enter oc.[[abc.com>>url:http://abc.com||shape="rect"]] in text box (because popup will appear on [[abc.com>>url:http://abc.com||shape="rect"]], This step is just for CNAME setup validation). If CNAME setup is not done, then it will throw warning while saving Product/Package. Also, the pop-up won't work on your site. =====

396

397

===== · Popup setup for targeting: Once popup is created you need to create the action in action manager. While creating the action manager select popup form created. If popup should appear on site [[abc.com>>url:http://abc.com||shape="rect"]] then enter oc.[[abc.com>>url:http://abc.com||shape="rect"]] in Target Domain. We will check if CNAME set up is done correctly, if not error will be warning. =====

398

399

**Extra Scripts/Extra Styles:

400

**These boxes allow you to add additional Javascript code or CSS to your forms to alter the appearance or function of the form.

401

402

[[image:attach:image2020-10-9_14-10-26.png||height="250"]]

\\

One use for these boxes is to add Javascript code to your form that will change the questions and/or question responses based on a user’s response to a question on the form.

407

408

**Code for altering responses based on select type demographics:**

\\

**Example:** If a form contains a question which ask whether the user is a doctor or a patient. If the user selects doctor the demographic fields which are related to doctor will appear (type of specialty, NPI #, medical degree achieved, etc.). Otherwise, demographic fields for a patient will appear on the form. This modifications helps to show user only those demographic fields which are related to their previous answers.

\\

**Example Sample Code:**

\\

removeInitial = [1043,859,659,683,699,707,723,731,747,771,779,787,795,867,915,739,763,1059,1075,1083,1091,755];

\\

var hcpObj = {

"dropDownId" : 1051,

"whenSelcectedItem" : [{

"Yes" : [659],

"No" : [683],

}],

"itemsDisplayWhenSelected" : [659,683,699,707,723,859,731,915,867,747,787,1043,779,771,795,739,763,1059,1075,1083,1091,755]

};

document.getElementById("q_id_1051").onchange = function(){autoDropDown(hcpObj)};

\\

var hcpNoObj = {

"dropDownId" : 683,

"whenSelcectedItem" : [{

449

450

"Patient Role" : [1059,1211],

}],

"itemsDisplayWhenSelected" : [659,699,707,723,859,731,915,867,747,787,1043,779,771,795,739,763,1059,1075,1083,1091,755]

};

document.getElementById("q_id_683").onchange = function(){autoDropDown(hcpNoObj)};

\\

\\

**Steps:**

* Initialize removeInitial variable and pass an array of demographics ids which you want to hide when form is loaded.

467

* Create an object with any name and this object should contain 3 elements

468

469
