About Form Elements

Form elements are used to collect data using input fields in a structured way.

Folwell form elements are built with the intention that they will be used with the Forms Module that is available in Drupal 8. The Forms Module is very robust and offers many form element options. For the purposes of using it at the University of Minnesota, the display is customized for Folwell and additional development work has been done to ensure accessibility based on a review of the module by the Disability Resource Center.

This development work will be implemented in phases.

Phase 1:

  • Text input field - long and short
  • Email field Dropdown field
  • Radio button field
  • Checkbox field

Future phases:

  • Progress bar
  • Phone number field
  • Address field
  • Date input field
  • Tooltip field
  • Tables
  • File upload
  • Likert
