feincms3-forms

feincms3-forms is an extremely flexible forms builder for the Django admin interface. It uses django-content-editor to build forms, which enables:

• Build your own form in the CMS without programmer involvement.

• Reorder, add and remove pre-existing fields.

• Add content (text, images, anything) between form fields.

• Use regions to add additional structure to a form, e.g. to build configurable multi-step forms (wizards).

• Add your own form field plugins with all the flexibility and configurability you desire.

If you only want to integrate short and simple forms (e.g. a contact form) you’re probably better off using form_designer. The feincms3 documentation contains a guide showing how to integrate it.
