Formidable for ExpressionEngine
Forms that respect your markup.
Build a form in the control panel and render it with one tag. Then take over as much of the markup as you like, one layer at a time. Validation, spam protection, storage and workflows keep working underneath.
ExpressionEngine 7.5+PHP 8.2+Version 1.1
Sold and downloaded through the ExpressionEngine add-on store.
{exp:formidable:form
form_handle="contact"
return="contact/thanks"
}
Everything a form needs
The plumbing, done properly.
Formidable handles everything between the Submit button and your inbox, so your templates can be about design.
A visual builder
Pages, sections and a grid. Drag fields in, resize them, and read every condition as a sentence.
Conditions and pages
Show, hide or require fields and skip whole pages, in the browser and again on the server.
Repeating sections
"Add another" rows for dependants or line items, with sums and counts across them.
Submissions to work with
Filters, saved views, statuses, encryption at rest, and exports to CSV, JSON, XML or text.
Save and resume
Long forms saved part-way, finished on any device, with a reminder for anyone who wanders off.
Secure by default
Signed form data, CSRF, honeypots and rate limits on day one. Turnstile and hCaptcha when you want them.
Your markup, your way
Take over one layer at a time.
Every step keeps everything from the step before it that you didn't replace. Stop wherever the theme stops suiting you.
- 01
One tag
The whole form, from your theme: fields, pages, errors, success, buttons.
template{exp:formidable:form form_handle="contact"} - 02
Your form element
Write the <form> and its layout. Formidable fills in the fields.
template<form {form_attributes}>{form_meta}{fields}{field_template}{/fields}</form> - 03
Your field markup
Every label, input and error by hand. Values, ids and ARIA are still handled.
template{fields}<label for="{field_handle}">{field_name}</label><input {field_attributes}>{/fields} - 04
Your whole form
Already wrote it? Capture it. Your markup stays exactly as it is.
template{exp:formidable:capture form_handle="contact"}<form method="post">…</form>{/exp:formidable:capture}
After the submit
Workflows that tell you what happened.
Send email, call a signed webhook or push to your CRM, each with its own conditions. Every run is logged with what it sent and what came back, and one click runs it again.

For developers
Headless when you need it. Extensible always.
A JSON API with the same validation as a posted form, eighteen extension hooks, your own fieldtypes and providers, and every command runnable from cron or the control panel.
public function formidable_workflow_email(array $message, $workflow): array
{
return $message;
}
Your first form is five minutes away.
