Partial User Defined Form submissions

This module aims to store partial submissions of userforms, for where the User Defined Form has multiple "pages".

The partials are stored and removed when the form is finished.

Installation

composer require firesphere/partialuserforms

Usage

Partial form submissions are stored in the database and visible on the forms in the CMS.

A daily export of the partial submissions can be acquired by checking the checkbox on the form and setting the configuration in the Settings

Requirements

  • UserDefinedForms 5+
  • SilverStripe Recipe CMS 1+
  • QueuedJobs 4+

Dev requirements

  • PHPUnit
  • Immediate exception printer
  • PHP CodeSniffer

Usage with Elemental UserForms

Add the following to your config yml:

DNADesign\ElementalUserForms\Model\ElementForm:
  extensions:
    - Firesphere\PartialUserforms\Extensions\UserDefinedFormExtension
    

Extensions

To manage the CSV's that are send out, e.g. to filter certain values or remove records from the CSV, the export job has an extension point calld updateCSVRecords, in which you can filter records, e.g.

class PartialSubmissionJobExtension extends Extension
{

    /**
     * Remove records that do not have an email address
     * to reduce the amount of useless records
     * @param $csvArray
     * @param $editableFields
     */
    public function updateCSVRecords(&$csvArray, $editableFields)
    {
        $emailAddress = array_search('email_address', array_keys($editableFields));
        foreach ($csvArray as $key => $value)
        {
            if (empty($value[$emailAddress])) {
                unset($csvArray[$key]);
            }
        }
    }
}

Benefits

With Partial forms, partial submissions are available to CMS users, to see how far a visitor got through the form and optionally make a call to the user, asking why they gave up.

Further improvements

  • Save the partial form to LocalStorage, to enable pre-filling of forms
  • Retrieve the partial form from the server to enable pre-filling of the forms
  • JS test coverage
