Formidable Pro: Guestbook Tutorial Part 2—The Custom Display

In our previous Formidable Pro tutorial, we constructed a form that enables your site’s visitors to leave an entry in a guestbook. This tutorial picks up where Part 1 left off and walks you through the steps for creating a custom display to show your entries on one of your site’s pages.

The video will walk you through the following Formidable Pro features:

• Custom Display Panel
• Custom Display Info
• Form and Display Type
• Content
• Advanced

In addition, we’ll walk through the source code displayed below and explain each section and what it does.

The custom display source code is below¹:

 





         
         
[ihzfpx] [x1jxfj]

          
         [if bgb7ao not_equal=""] 
         
         [/if bgb7ao]

        
         [if 2t1gv6 not_equal=""] 
         
         [/if 2t1gv6]
         

         
         
         
[created-at format='D, j F Y']
