Heads Up: This is the documentation for Joomla 3

We recommend using the Documentation for Joomla 5

It is more up-to-date and extensive. Most of it applies retrospectively to Joomla 3.

Joomla 5 Notice

We are pleased to announce that as of January 29, 2024, all of our Joomla extensions are compatible with Joomla 5.

For all who are still updateing from Joomla 3 to Joomla 4: Joomla 4 Migration instructions are available here:

There is now a separate Documentation for Visforms for Joomla 4 and for Visforms for Joomla 5!

Display data, submitted with a Visforms form, inside a module

This feature is part of the Visforms Subscription and not available in the free Visforms version..

We propose reading the documentation from the beginning, starting with the Introduction. We will not repeat concepts and explanations made in previous parts of the documentation, here.

The content plugin Data View allows you to display user inputs submitted with a form created with Visforms form inside a module of type "Custom HTML". You have to add a plugin string to the module's text at the place where you want to display the data. The plugin will find the string, remove it and insert the data viiew instead.

Please follow the instructions Display data in article, in order to create the proper plugin string, if you want to display a data in a module.

Create a module of type "Custom HTM and set up the module position, Menü links, etc. as usual.

Enable the Option "Prepare Content" in the modul "Options" tab. This is necessary in order to perform content plugins - as the content plugin data view - in modules!
