Display

Element: Text

Element: Heading

This element displays a heading over the current form step. Its position in the editor does not matter, it will always be shown at the top.

Inputs

Element: Selection

The selection element can be used to ask for a choice of multiple options.

Allow selection of multiple options: When this is enabled, multiple options can be selected instead of just one.

Layout

Lets you select in how many columns the options are displayed.

Default uses as many columns as possible. The other options restrict the amount of options per row.

Options

New options can be added with the Add New Option button.

An option can be represented by plain text (next to a checkbox or radio button) or by an image.

To use an image, select the Use Image option. You can then select an image from your WordPress library.

Alternatively, select Use Icon to select an icon from the FontAwesome library.

You can optionally also hide the option's title if the image or icon is enough. For this, activate the "Hide Title" option.

API

Overview

Evolution Forms uses the REST API WordPress provides and defines two routes to retrieve form data and form response data (leads). In order to use the API, the extension has to be purchased from the Extensions menu.

Base URL

In order for the API to work, the permalink setting in WordPress needs to be set to Post name (/wp-admin/options-permalink.php on your WordPress instance). HTTPS needs to be enabled.

Evolution Forms provides
/evolution-forms/v1/responses
and
/evolution-forms/v1/forms

Here's an example for a complete URL:

https://test.evolution-forms.com/wp-json/evolution-forms/v1/responses

Authentication

The API uses application passwords which have to be generated in the WordPress user settings.

Test Authentication

You can test your credentials with cURL:

curl --user "USERNAME:APPLICATION_PASSWORD" https://test.evolution-forms.com/wp-json/wp/v2/users/me

Replace USERNAME and APPLICATION_PASSWORD with your credentials.

Routes

/wp-json/evolution-forms/v1/forms

Information about available forms

Parameters:

formIDs (Array of integers): Which forms to query for. Leave empty to retrieve all forms. Can also be specified in the route: /wp-json/evolution-forms/v1/forms/23
