Components

Bootstrap Components can be added using the Layout > HTML Element in Advanced Fields. Copy and paste components from the examples on the Bootstrap site. There are also a few samples implemented here in the working example.

You can either paste examples directly into the content field or into the HTML Tag and CSS Class fields like this:

HTML Tag: div, CSS Class: alert alert-primary

You'll find some components built into simple and advanced fields like Panel. Other options are also available in components like adding prefix and suffix to input groups.

Utilities

Experiment with Bootstrap Utilities to add custom styles to your form.

Custom CSS Class: border border-danger rounded

Columns

Back to top

Use Bootstrap Grids to customize columns. A form is 12 columns wide, divide it up any way you like (6x2, 4x3, 10+2, etc). There are some pre-set column widths in Simple Fields. In Advanced Fields, here's an example of 4 columns of width 3 (4 X 3 = 12):

Settings for 4 columns of width 3

You can also nest columns, that is to say put columns inside of other components like a panel or even another parent column component.

Icons

Back to top

Add icons to buttons and input fields from Font Awesome.

Button Icons

Example, enter “fa fa-plus” in one of the button icon fields.

Input Icons or Text

You can add an input icon in front of a field by adding an HTML tag into the “Prefix” field. <I class=”fa fa-phone”>.
