How do I...Add a Contact Form to my Wiki?

Embed a Widgetbox Contact Form

Deki Wiki supports WidgetBox widgets and there are a lot of different contact form widgets that can be easily embedded. 

Embed a Form and Display Data on the Site

If you want to take the information to the next level and have a user submit information in a form and have that form available on your website then follow the following steps. 

1. Sign up for an online Database service like Zoho Creator or DabbleDB, this example will use Zoho Creator
   
2. Once you log in you can follow the steps to make a custom form.  There are some premade templates that are setup pretty nicely and can be edited very easily
3. Once you have set the form up it will automatically be linked to a corresponding Database.
4. Next go to Access This Application and click More Actions, then select Embed in Your Website
5. Once you select to Embed you will be given options to customize the look of your form to match your site...if you customize remember your selection as we will be using it later
6. Once you have customized copy the html it provides, go to the wiki page that you want it on and click Edit. 
   
7. Now click the html button on the WYSIWYG editor and paste the html code that you copied
8. Now you can save and you'll have a fully functional form that will post the data back to the database associated to your account
9. NOTE: There are privacy settings for the data, if you don't want to share the info that is posted through the form, make sure you mark the form as Private
10. Now that you have the form on a wiki page, you want to display the results on the page
11. You can do this by going back to Zoho Creator and select the View for your Form
12. Once there select More Actions -> Embed in Your Website and customize with the same values you did for the form
13. Repeat steps 5-7 and you'll have a wiki page that can post content onto the wiki page via form
14. If you just want the contact form without the information displayed then you can skip steps 10-13
