Any tips on how to connect a WordPress form to Google Sheets without a 3rd party premium service?

I have a form that is rarely used by people (usually older folks) who want marketing mailed to them instead of email. The best way to do this is to have a form where they input their mailing info and have it connect to a Google spreadsheet.

Unless there's a better solution?

I don't want to have another annual plugin subscription to do this.

Wenn Ihr folgendes Layout hättet: eine Suchformular als Satz – wie würdet Ihr das Markup hierfür schreiben? Also mit korrekten Labels und sinnvoller Semantik. Bin gerade ein bisschen aufgeschmissen … (Bitte keine Vorschläge für andere Formularlayouts, es geht um diesen konkreten Fall. Danke!) #html #forms #accessibility

Governmental XFA forms come from some special type of hell.

Surprisingly, some of them do work in Papers / / . It seems like a few corner cases remain where only some forms refuse to load, so I filed a ticket in with a neat reference table and sample files today. In case this is useful to anyone: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/-/issues/1481

@nekohayo XFA Forms do indeed live in a special form of hell!

It doesn't help that the Canadian government is inexplicably using software that is 20 years old to create the sample forms you found. [eyeroll]

Hey everyone!

I'm working on a video to see what the Linux community (or at least people who follow me) actually use.

So, I created a little form, hosted on my Nextcloud (hopefully it's up to the task...)

It's only up for 2 days, so don't hesitate to share it around, it will help me "touch grass" and see if my preconceived notions are confirmed, or invalidated!

https://nextcloud.thelinuxexp.com/index.php/apps/forms/s/XQRzMrs8QTtCjDfSyP4koA9o

Of course, it's all anonymous, no personal data, it's just for the purposes of creating the video.

Chartman123,

@thelinuxEXP nice to see the Forms app that I'm codevelopping in action #nextcloud #forms

@yatil Howdy. Quick web accessibility question for you. I'm asked to “rule" on accessibility of a lot of pages containing forms. I use the online tools, I do my best, but I'm wondering if you know of good tutorials for non- pros about making sure that web forms with boxes, menus, buttons and the like are behaving themselves.

@Shelly This is draft, but I think already really good from @wai: Easy Checks on forms: https://www.w3.org/WAI/test-evaluate/easy-checks/#forms

And the forms tutorial has a lot of good information, too – but I would say that, considering my name is on it 😂 It might be a bit techy, but I think it has everything one needs to know. https://www.w3.org/WAI/tutorials/forms/

Pondering forays today into pantoums and/or sestinas; I hope to be able in the next few days to test out a vague sense that certain poetic might get at certain or situations in ways others might not. (Hardly a revelation, but it's a new point in my being unable to abandon attempts at .)
