    I am new to machform, and I still have not figured out many things, but the one I need help on the most is this:

    I created a for for our upcoming event: http://mugen.ucsd.edu/forms/view.php?id=12524

    But I cannot figure out how to add the theme I created after I finished this form. Is it to late to change the theme on my form? If so, How do I copy all the fields I created into a new form that uses my new theme? Thanks!!!!!

    First Question - Applying Theme

    If you just want to apply your own theme that is easy to do but it seems you have already done so.

    I can see the theme you're currently using (see screenshot). If that's not the correct theme, you need to apply yours, as per below:

    In the Forms Manager, click the form you want (should highlight light-blue or other colour depending on the admin theme you use), and then click the button labelled "Theme".

    A light-box (pop-up) comes up with a drop down box of all the available themes. Custom themes are listed under "Your Themes" in the drop down box.

    Select the theme you want.

    Click "Save Changes" and then click "View" back in the main form managers list for your particular form - you should see the stand-alone version of the form with the applied theme.

    Further info on Theme Editor - see http://www.appnitro.com/doc-theme-editor, and http://www.appnitro.com/doc-form-manager#change-theme.

    Second Question - duplicating form
    You can duplicate a form easily. In the forms manager, click the "Duplicate" button for your form. It will show up in the list like "[your-form-name] Copy". See the documentation for more: http://www.appnitro.com/doc-form-manager#duplicate.

    You would then simply and quickly apply your theme to it, but you don't need to copy it, simply follow the first instructions above to change the theme - you can change the original form's theme to the one you want; there's no 'lock-out' once you have applied a theme; you are free to change it whenever you like.

    Note however, if you already have entries in the original form the duplicate will NOT have the entries copied - it merely copies the design and themes etc, but not the existing entries.
