How to create my own shortcode?

[Sogl]

Hello!

I want to use this plugin with another form/contact service.
But I don't know how to create my own shortcodes and in which folder I need to put them.

Can you provide a small instruction?

This plugin uses the Grav Shortcode Core plugin, and you can create your own shortcode plugins to work in parallel with any other (such as Gravstrap): https://github.com/getgrav/grav-plugin-shortcode-core/blob/develop/README.md#developing-shortcode-plugins

@Sogl you can add a shortcode as @rhukster suggested, as Gravstrap does. This last one implements some shortcuts I will certainly talk about in some later instructions but, before that, I must revisit some parts of Gravstrap plugin which do not work as expected with Grav 1.1.

In which folder I need to put my new form?

Hi,
under the templates folder of your theme could work, but it's better if you to create a new plugin to handle your new shortcodes and add the for under the plugin's template folder. However, just notice you don't need a shortcode to handle your form.

I'm trying to use Gravstrap theme, which fully builded with Gravstrap plugin. I need to change contact form in some parts and don't know where to put my own. Main contacts file lays here: \user\plugins\gravstrap\templates\vendor\simple_form.html.twig

So where I need to create my own and edited? I don't think that I need to put my file near the original.

Hi @Sogl You can copy your /user/plugins/gravstrap/templates/vendor/simple_form.html.twig to /user/themes/**your_theme**/templates/vendor/simple_form.html.twig and edit/modify it as you want. Also you can get information about how to create/put elements to a form here: https://getsimpleform.com/

Remember to generate a token in https://getsimpleform.com/ and put it in your file when you are showing your form.
