Needs a rethink: reset button, styling integration

    Forminator form needs to include the reset form feature. I can’t find a way to reset radio buttons. Users will complain for a standard reset button, or they will not submit the form nor get in contact; any of those variants are far from ideal. Further, the object containers have some useful features. I think in building it from the ground up, rather than using wider integration, it means now it needs major work to integrate (or wider “interoperability”). By integration I mean primarily styling. I know we can use css: that is applied to the whole object, sometimes the label and the field (value). I can get bold using “<b>”. Yes, I know about using theme styles and forminator styles. At finer level it is not possible.

    Integration also means things like php code. I got as far as displaying a reset button in the editing box, but the front end does not display it, it’s blank, it ignores it. It seems the intrepreter engine is not html- or web-friendly.

    From a bit of searching, the request for the reset button is in the works somewhere.

    Hi @reviewplugin ,

    I’m sorry to see that you had a bad experience using Forminator. I would like to confirm a few things about your review so we can improve the plugin.

    For your first point, about the reset button, thanks for the feedback, we do really appreciate it. There is already a feature request for this and we’ve passed your review to the team plugin as well as added a +1 to that feature request for you, please keep in mind that we can’t provide an ETA as this requires development and QA testing which could take some time.

    About adding styles, it should be possible to set, for example, an input/element to be bold directly under your Form > Appearance > Fonts, you can check here an example for input elements: https://monosnap.com/file/sNTelwesmJLwwqoymMb5Ari8G1SoyM

    Could you confirm if you were referring to this feature or something more specific?

    You also mention integration with PHP code, could you give us more info on this topic? Do you need to add PHP code to a specific form? Keep in mind that it is not possible to add PHP using only HTML, or do you want to specifically add a shortcode that contains PHP code?

    For the last 2 options, I would like to invite you to create a support topic here – https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/plugin/forminator/ in the support team, we’ll check and advice with a solution if possible.

    Again, thanks a lot for all your feedback and do apologize for any inconvenience caused.
    Best Regards,
    Williams Valerio
