Re: Forms 2.0 is alive

Hello Community,
 
I would invite you all to check out the Forms 2.0 feature in the January 2014 release.  This idea has been long in its arrival but I can already attest it is worth its weight.  This release has solved so many use cases where a web developer was required to perform some guru magic in order to get the forms to blend in function or style onto the landing pages.  The feature list is expansive and has two of my most desired features: full functionality while embedding on non-Marketo pages and mobile/html5 friendly. Marketo packed a lot into this release, so enjoy and explore.
 
Happy Forming
 
Cheers,
Eric

Hi Reivick - This is not the intention of Forms 2.0. One Form per language.

Hi there,

I'd like to use the same form for many landing pages in a multinational / multilingual website. Ideally, the field names will appear in local languages. Would forms 2.0 help with this?

Cheers!

Thanks Eric for pushing and everyone at Marketo for coding this.  I'm replacing all the insane java forms this weekend on our site.  The first one took me exactly 37 mins to replace.

@Kapil - yes, we are using a single "yes" checkbox on our form.  We ran into some issues at first, but overcame them with disabling the auto-populate feature.  Read more here: https://community.marketo.com/MarketoDiscussionDetail?id=90650000000PlL2AAK

Cecile,

In terms of migration from 1.0 to 2.0, you must do this manually. I don't know if I have a recommendation on what to do. I'd say it's easier to start using Forms 2.0 for new things, than try to rebuild each form and update all landing pages for long time users.

That's somewhat unfortunate, but not surprising given the complexity involved. Think of it as a good opportunity to review forms and try things out on the next program. Just being able to do all of this is tremendous.

Marketo instances before Jan 24, 2014 will have access to both types of Forms.

I do love Form2.0. Already tried around and it's just great! All my concerns wishs came true. Great work, Marketo team!

I have a small suggestion though: when I edit advanced thank you page setting: the drop-down menu is very narrow, cannot see the full name of the page (especially all of them starting with the program names) and it does not suggest/populate the pages based on the first input letters. It's a bit annoying. Hopefully it will be improved in the future.

Has anybody tried checkbox field behaviour in Form 2.0 ? I was trying to use check box field with single box as checked/unchecked, but seems there is some issue. If someone tried this, please let me know.

Forms 2.0 functionality seems to be solid. A very well thought addition.

Thanks for all the hardwork to the Marketo team, especially Jason. I've had a bit of time to play around with it. I have a new unsubscribe page using the forms & the registration for my wedding. tee hee. 🙂  I'm excited for all the benefits these features open up to us.
