New Commercial Services Section
We have now opened a commercial services section here on the forum for registered users. If you have a Fabrik project that you wish to have someone work on for you, post it under Help Wanted. If you are an application developer and wish to earn some money helping others, post your details under Fabrik Application Developers.
Both of these are unmoderated. It will be up to both parties to work out the details and come to an agreement.

This page is to document Fabrik's Form fields which are used to create Fabrik's setting screens in the Joomla back-end. They are not the same as Fabrik Elements which are the means of creating Fabrik Lists and Forms. This page has been created for the benefit of people contributing to the maintenance and development of Fabrik itself, and will not be of any relevance to people using Fabrik to develop web solutions with Joomla.
These can be used in combination with Joomla's own Form Fields.
This documentation has been split across 2 WIki entries due to size limitations of the Wiki software. The first half is available here.
