By default, forms are removed from the forms list, but are actually still kept in the database; they are not permanently deleted. There is an option to change this, but by default they are kept in the db, reason being that users in earlier versions accidentlaly deleted forms, and couldn't recover them easily.</p> <p><strong><em>how would I identify the form(s)?</em></strong><br /> In the Admin area, you can identify the forms from the names you have called them. Normally you would put a form heading in each e.g. "Contact Us" (or whatever), and this name is shown in the Forms list. I think you can even add a "tag" in the latest version, that helps identify them also. This "tag" is separate from the form name. However, for your users, unless you actually send them the link, you have to know what the "ID" is, and that's usually visible in the web address bar in the browser, if you choose the "View" option from the Admin forms list.</p> <p><strong><em>Also, where is the php form located? </em></strong><br /> The forms doesn't actually physically exist - they are generated each time the page/script is loaded. The forms's structure and design is stored in the database. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/running-the-form-#post-15166 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 07:36:58 +0000 scuc 15166@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Thanks - can I assume the next form I creat will be '....id=2'?

The form I created I named 'IC Employment' - now how do I run this form? I do not want it as a link on the web site I would like the user to enter: <a href="http://www.scucadmin.net/machform/" rel="nofollow">www.scucadmin.net/machform/</a>{form name} - is this possible? If not, any suggestions on how to run it? </p>
