# Grav Form Plugin
The **form plugin** for [Grav](https://github.com/getgrav/grav) adds the ability to create and use forms. This is currently used extensively by the **admin** and **login** plugins.
# Installation
The form plugin is easy to install with GPM.
```
$ bin/gpm install form
```
# Configuration
Simply copy the `user/plugins/form/form.yaml` into `user/config/plugins/form.yaml` and make your modifications.
```
enabled: true
```
# How to use the Form Plugin
The Learn site has two pages describing how to use the Form Plugin:
- [Forms](https://learn.getgrav.org/forms)
- [Add a contact form](https://learn.getgrav.org/forms/forms/example-form)
# Using email
Note: when using email functionality in your forms, make sure you have configured the Email plugin correctly. In particular, make sure you configured the "Email from" and "Email to" email addresses in the Email plugin with your email address.
# NOTES:
As of version **Form 6.0.0** forms are no longer initialized before caching, but when the form is requested. This has been done to make dynamic forms to work better with caching. There may be some backward compatibility issues for logic that modifies pages with forms as the modification doesn't happen without accessing the form first.
As of version **Form 5.0.0** Grav 1.7+ is required.
As of version **Form 4.0.6**, form labels are now being output with the `|raw` filter. If you wish to show HTML in your form label, ie `Root Folder <root>`, then you need to escape that in your form definition:
```yaml
label: Root Folder &lt;root&gt;
```
