Default settings

In the plug-in, under the menu item Configuration (section Set default), the default values for the plug-in can be set. The values set here are available later when configuring the container/form, but can be overwritten there.

The forms created in the Xima® Formcycle Designer use some javascript frameworks such as jQuery, as well as partly also user-defined CSS files. If jQuery has already been included in the project, FORMCYCLE does not need to load and include jQuery additionally. The values (true/false) can be used to set which scripts should be loaded or not. The situation is different for the CSS files. The CSS files specified here are loaded when the Xima® Formcycle Designer is called up and are then available in the CSS area of the elements as CSS classes.

• base_url
  Here the URL to the FORMCYCLE server must be stored. It should be noted that the SixCMS server has access to the FORMCYCLE server via the specified base_url!

• alternative_url
  Use this parameter if the URL for delivering the forms is different from the URL of the FORMCYCLE master server. This is necessary, for example, when using a frontend server. In this case, enter the URL of the frontend server. 

• render
  There are 3 different ways to render the form: 

  1. inline
      The form is rendered as DIV content in the page (see figure access 1).
  2. iFrame
      The form is provided as an iFrame in the page (see figure access 2).
  3. ajax
      The form is loaded into the page (DIV) via an ajax request (see figure access 2).

• use_css
  Here one or more CSS files can be specified. Please make sure that these CSS files are also included on the page later on.

• use_jq
  If the value is true, the jQuery framework (jquery-xxx.min.js) will be loaded by the form.

• use_ui
  If you have included jQuery UI components in the form (e.g. datepicker ...) the value must be true or the corresponding file must be defined in SiXCMS.
