YBP CX Form

Description

YBP CX Form focuses on one job: creating and publishing forms without requiring users to write form tags or HTML.

Version 1.0.0 changes the form layout editor to the grid-based designer while keeping the existing confirmation, Thanks, mail, and public form flow.

Version 1.0.0 includes:

• Three-pane form builder: available fields, working drag-and-drop layout canvas, and selected-item properties.
• Explorer/Finder-style palette selection with multi-select drag, vertical row insertion, and automatic equal-column creation by dropping to a field’s left or right edge.
• CSS Grid based public form layout.
• Field label position settings: above, left, or visually hidden.
• Required/optional, width, placeholder, description, choices, and content settings in the properties panel.
• Built-in standard email field with the stable email key.
• Reusable field library with customer-oriented presets such as full name, split name, Kana name, telephone, company, address, and date of birth.
• Fields created by the user are saved to the reusable field library after the form is saved.
• Built-in starter templates for blank, contact, document request, service application, event/seminar application, and survey forms.
• A draft Standard Contact Form is created only when no form exists yet; nothing is published automatically.
• Any saved form can be duplicated and edited independently.
• Form pages with root-level slugs edited through the normal WordPress permalink controls, plus featured images.
• Shortcode embedding with [ybpcxf_form id="123"].
• Form page and shortcode use at the same time.
• Optional pre-send confirmation screen with freely editable HTML content.
• Freely editable Thanks screen or same-site redirect after sending.
• AJAX stage switching with History API support so Input, Confirmation, and Thanks do not reload the page.
• Browser Back returns from Confirmation or Thanks to the originating input screen without resending mail.
• Duplicate-send protection using a per-submission token.
• Separate administrator notification and sender auto-reply settings.
• To, CC, BCC, From, Reply-To, subject, body, plain-text/HTML mail, readable insertion tags, and a formatted all-fields tag.
• Honeypot spam field and nonce checks.
• Add-on registration APIs for add-ons, field types, reusable fields, and form templates.
• Dashboard-first administration with one Contact X Form sidebar entry, manual card ordering, and in-dashboard Trash management.

YBP CX Form 1.0.0 does not include CRM/customer management. The core is intentionally focused on form creation and delivery so future features can be added as separate add-ons.
