Best way to create a custom form in Prestashop

[davidgc]

Hi -

 

I have been doing some research and trying to figure out the bellow-

 

What is the best way to go about creating a custom form in Prestashop? By custom I mean a form that is not only limited to Contact Info. But more like a service request for repair form with dropdowns and multiple answers etc...

 

Is it possible to integrate a HTML5 form into a CMS?

 

Would I be able to do a HTML5 with jQuery validation and then submit via Ajax to PHP?

 

What is the best and least painful way?

 

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The easiest way is to use external form builder which will generate a code that you must paste in your CMS page in "code" mode..

Thanks!

 

So is an HTML5 form out of the question?

it is possbile to use some html5 markups but not all of them

you need some custom controller to handle your ajax call

the best way, in my opinion, is custom controller (or even module)
