Online Forms

Online forms are interactive webpages that allow users to enter some data and then submit it back to the website for further processing, for example:

• event registration form
• membership application form
• feedback form

Integrated online forms

Wild Apricot system contains a number of integrated online forms - meaning that you can add them to your website in a few seconds - and they will automatically interact with Wild Apricot modules for further processing. One simple example: You can add an online membership application form and it's submission can trigger a number of different automatic actions according to your settings, e.g.:

• Automatically add new record to your contact database
• Allow new member to access premium content on your website
• Send automatic confirmation and/or payment receipt to the new member
• Display new member record in your online member directory
• Send a notification to site administrator

Wild Apricot online forms can be customized in a variety of ways. For example, you can have one event registration form where you can setup a meal selection (with extra cost) and where only members of defined membership level can apply, and you can also have another event registration, where you would just ask for event attendee name and e-mail.

These are the online forms integrated into Wild Apricot:

• Online member application form
• Event registration form
• Online donation form
• E-mail subscription form

See Functional pages for a full list of interactive pages and forms available in Wild Apricot.

Adding other custom forms

If you want to add a custom form for any other particular need (for example: contact us form), you can insert HTML forms, for more information see Inserting HTML forms - or embed forms from a third party provider such as Wufoo. In this case information collected through custom forms will have no integration with Wild Apricot - meaning that Wild Apricot will not be storing or processing data from these forms.
