You can tailor the Interactive Forms component for your particular situation by selecting which form elements, handlers, routers, and validators are available for creating forms. Making one or more of these items unavailable is useful if you want to prevent it from being used, if you only use a subset of all the available form elements, handlers and/or routers or you want to simplify the user interface.
Beginning in XperienCentral version 10.19.1, you can mark handlers as favorites to make them always appear at the top of the list of available handlers. |
In the Settings menu you can decide which form elements, handlers, routers, and validators are available for creating forms. This makes it possible to control which items can be used in a form.

This is useful if you enable all or most of the available handlers and want to make it easier for editors to find the most often used handlers in the list. It is also useful if you simply want to highlight one or more handlers by ensuring that they are always at the top of the list of available handlers. If you mark multiple handlers as a favorite, they will appear at the top of the list of handlers in ascending alphabetical order. Favorites are channel dependent which means that other channels can have a different set of favorites.

XperienCentral is migrating the form fragment presentations to the HTML 5 input types. Some of these fields have a default validation method in the browser. In order to enable this we've added a new presentation property on the FormStep presentation called "Enable HTML 5 default validation". This property is disabled by default and therefore adds a novalidate
attribute to the form tag of the form. If you want to enable the default HTML5 validation, create a design template variant for the FormStep presentation and set the value to "Yes". Follow these steps:
