Is it possible to have more than one form created in webform builder on the same page ?
So far I have two forms on one page, only one will display correctly when published.

You can have as many as you like so long as the CSS doesn't conflict with something else. That is usually the problem users have. To help with this, when you create your form insure that you select a unique ID and CLASS for each menu. Should work great. If it doesn't please post back and maybe someone else will have an idea.

The main thing also to make sure to do is to name each form a different name (unless you're putting the same form in multiple places that is, you can do that too). The form builder gives each form a default name, but make sure to save give it your own name, and a different one for each and that will make sure they don't overlap eachother in most ways. And definitely what Gunsmoke mentions is a good idea too, naming your classes unique names helps so that they don't clash with any other default style sheet classes. :)

Ok have named each form individually as suggested, am exporting the produced forms for use in a website, not using s-drive as I have multiple forms for one site and cannot afford the cost of this on s-drive.

Gunsmoke - cannot see anywhere in webform builder the option to select CLASS or ID ?
Is that part of menu builder only ? I don't use that program:/


So stuck for now, only one form will work at a time - any further suggestions?

Guess not, you know the help files are pretty poor, very little relevant information and was hoping to get support from the Community...

I have handled the problem with multiple forms on one page myself - not involving Form Builder, using iframes..not the most elegant way of doing things but seeing as no help/responses were forthcoming....

:rolleyes:

Not sure what you expect Winefride... people were helping you...

Im sure the string just got lost in action. Just post an update to it every once in a while and it comes up as a new post. Remember we do not work for Coffeecup we are product users just like you. I have embedded multiple forms with no issues myself just make sure when you save them you are changing the name. Then upload the contents of the exported folders. If you use the code that the wfb generates to input into your page both forms should work.

You can have as many forms added to a single page as you like. Just make sure each one is saved with a unique file name and it will work just fine. Here is a quick page I put together that has 4 forms on it:

Gunsmoke was referring to Menu Builder which allows you to set a custom class name. That is not an option in Form Builder.

Yep, that was my goof guys! :P I went with 'Menu Builder' instead of 'Form Builder'. Temporary insanity!! Anyway, Form Builder works as advertised and as Scott demonstrated. Just save each form with a unique name. Try not to use any 'spaces' in your file names as some servers choke on spaces.

Please don't be to put off, we do try our best. Let us know if you need anything more . . .:cool:
