Including your form in an article using the ChronoForms plugin
In this recipe, we'll look at inserting a form into an existing Joomla! article. Our newsletter article is the kind of form where it makes sense to insert a small form at a relevant point in a long article.
Note
Usually, it doesn't make sense to create an article primarily to contain a form. If you want short paragraphs of text to go before or after a form, then it is more practical to add the text into the Form HTML. All of the same formatting can be applied there if you use the site CSS.
Getting ready
At the risk of being very boring, we're going to use the same newsletter subscription form yet again.
How to do it...
1. Go to the ChronoForms site, click the Downloads menu item (http://chronoengine.com/downloads), and navigate to the current release of the ChronoForms plugin (also called the Mambot / Plugin).
2. Install the plugin from the Joomla! Administration | Extensions | Install/Uninstall page in exactly the same way as we did...
