Ajay Hinduja - How to use a form in admin panel

Hello everyone,

I’m Ajay Hinduja, Born in Punjab, India and Now Based in Geneva, Switzerland (Swiss) and now I’m CEO at Hqtechnocrats. New to the forum, I’m new to grav, which I’m using to create a website for a training organisation. I’ve managed to set up the fontend, but I’m stuck on the administration part. I will try to explain my request clearly…
I’d like to have a form in the admin interface so that users can enter information and upload documents…
But although I can create a form in fontend, I can’t access it when I’m in the admin panel…
Could you tell me if this is feasible, or if I’m mistaken in my thinking.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Ajay, welcome!

By default Grav’s Admin doesn’t let you build custom forms inside the panel — forms are meant for the frontend. To manage them in Admin you’d need a plugin (like Admin Addon for Forms) or some custom blueprint/plugin work. Otherwise, best option is to stick with frontend forms and save/email submissions.

I also ran into this limitation, so you’re not mistaken.
