I want to build a custom webform using webform module in drupal 7 but I want to use custom fields as form fields. Is there a way to do it?
To create your custom field as per requirement follow this awesome link.

Cheers!!!
You just have to create a new piece of Webform content by going to Content > Add Content > Webform. Once you make your title, body, etc, click "Save" and you'll be taken to the next step of creating your form fields (called "Components"). In the components area, you can add whatever type of field you'd like, and all the submitted data will be stored in the "Results" area for that piece of content.

I try to create custom content part with following specification.
I need to add list of items in database with same editor template view page of driver.
I want to include one form with required fields with an add button, by using this add button I want to add more number of rows with given field values in database.
I have checked Orchard documentation in this link, they provide sample with single item add in editor template page. In my case I need to add multiple items in editor page.
In display view page of driver, I want to retrieve collection of data from database and rendered in display view page.
Please share some details for this.
Thanks,
I am a newbie in using Drupal 6 and I am still walking in the dark in terms of module familiarization and module configurations. Lately, I installed the Webform module for my site to be able to let users submit a request. In my Webform, there is a Select View field where it lists all contents of a specific Content Type on my Drupal site. I was able to use a View as a datasource for my normal webform select component via the Webform View Reference Component that's whay I have a custom <select> field which are views on my Webform. Now, after a successful submission of the form, I go to Results and found the data which are saved upon submission. What I want is that, on my Results page, the selected option from the list, which basically are views, will be a link to their respective views. This is how it looks like,
I am really lost right here. Can someone lend me a hand on how to make this possible? Cheers.
Install this module http://drupal.org/project/webform_report it will be displayed in table format and also you can customize the report & also It will create separate content type.
Below is the screen shot for webform report, you can also view, edit & delete from report itself.
I created custom edit form and custom add form for my List. Both forms have the same FormFields and they differ only by ControlMode tag. In add form ControlMode="New" and in edit form: ControlMoe="Edit".
When I try use edit form as NewForm, in all input box I see text "... field value" insted of empty box. And when I try use add form as EditForm, all input boxes are empty insted of field value.
Can I somehow use one aspx file as newForm and EditForm at the same time to not duplicate aspx files?
For sharepoint webpart page(site page): No you can not have same form for both
For Sharepoint application page: yes you can. you have almost complete control over you application page.
For more info about difference in site page and application page:

I am currently working on an Orchard module. This module contains an MVC application including the views. I would like to make the module as configurable as possible. One of the items that I would like the customer to configure is the way the MVC views from the module look. Part of it will be determined by the theme. But not everything. Consider the following scenario:
The module contains a view for placing an order. The view displays a form in ´normal view way´. That is field labels and input labels. But at the head of the form each customer must be able to define his own set of instructions to display. Or maybe the customer wants to put there a message for pointing the customer to some other actions.
In the most ideal way I would have a content page where the customer can put all kind of content and one specific block that is the result of the view of the module. Kind like a web part. I can´t find out if it is possible and how that is achieved.
Edit for clarification
Module creates a page like this:
TITLE
FORM
So both title and form are outputted by the module controller.
I have managed to create a layer with the condition that the url matches the page with my form.
I have added a HTML widget to this layer in the content zone with position 1 (tried 0 to).
However the pages looks like this:
TITLE
FORM
WIDGET
instead of
WIDGET
TITLE
FORM
Returning a ShapeResult from your controller action will ensure that your view is themed and benefits from widgets, which are your "kind like a web part" thingies in Orchard.
I've published an InfoPath form, through the administrator route, to a document library. I can click new form on the document library and have my custom form load up in the browser. When the filled form is saved back to the list it fires off a workflow. The workflow creates a task for another user to go into the form and complete the missing fields (if there are any.)
The key here is that the partially filled form saved to the library needs to be the very same form opened in the first task. The link field of the task is automatically filled with the url to the list item, which is the xml for the partially filled form. The link is identical to that when you mouse over the item back in the document library but when it's clicked from the task it try's to open the form inside InfoPath itself and not inside the browser. So that's one problem with the link field that SharePoint automatically populates when you create a task.
Ideally I would want to associate the partially filled form with the task itself. I've done this before in workflow with infopath forms by putting the FormURN inside workflow.xml and then specifying the TaskType on the task. However this will create up a new form based on the template. How can I get it to use the existing xml on the list item which the workflow which the task is actually running on.
Suggestions would be very much appriciated.
Change the url to go this url
{SITE_COLECTION_URL}/_layouts/FormServer.aspx?XmlLocation={FORM_URL}&DefaultItemOpen=1
use the tutorial on this page and have a field on the forms ItemMetadata.xml called url and set it in the code
taskProperties.ExtendedProperties["url"] = SERVERURL + "/_layouts/FormServer.aspx?XmlLocation=" + FORMURL + "&DefaultItemOpen=1";
This is not the most elegant solution but does work well. You will need to modify the form to act as an action listener.
Instead of creating tasks, send out emails containing a link to the InfoPath. When the user opens the form customize the top of form to look like a task form with a checkbox, when the form is updated fire the workflow to check if the check box is complete, if so move on the workflow on.
