FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Laravel PHP Livewire

What Makes It Badass-er

🎨 Advanced Conditional Logic

📊 Built-in Analytics & Reporting

📱 Bootstrap 5 Grid System

🔌 Three Integration Methods

Choose the approach that fits your workflow:

  1. Built-in Routes - Ready-to-use form management UI at /slick-forms/* (can be overridden)

Perfect for edit profiles, update account settings, or any CRUD operation.

📡 Dynamic Options (Cascading Dropdowns)

Perfect for confirmation pages, payment success screens, or multi-step workflows.

🎨 Enhanced Field Types

Three powerful new field types for advanced use cases:

📚 Form Versioning

Track changes and rollback when needed:

Perfect for maintaining audit trails, testing changes safely, or reverting breaking updates.

Extending Slick Forms

External Resources

Configuration

Slick Forms includes comprehensive configuration options for routes, field types, uploads, email notifications, spam protection, webhooks, and more.

Quick Configuration

Basic configuration options (config/slick-forms.php):

Environment Variables

Complete Configuration Guide: See docs/CONFIGURATION.md for all settings, SMTP setup, CAPTCHA integration, and production best practices.

Route Customization

Slick Forms V2 introduces comprehensive route customization with hashid-only URLs for enhanced security and privacy.

Default Routes

All package routes use secure hashid URLs that are short, non-sequential, and shareable:

Security Benefits:

Customizing Routes

Publish the config to customize all routes, middleware, and URL segments:

Example 1: Change Route Prefix

Now routes become: /admin/forms/manage, /admin/forms/builder/x9kL2p, etc.

Example 2: Customize URL Segments

Example 3: Per-Route Middleware Control

Example 4: Disable Package Routes (Use Your Own)

Important: When using custom routes, all {form} and {template} parameters automatically use hashid binding. Pass model objects to route() helper and they'll be converted to hashids automatically.

Migration from Numeric IDs

Breaking Change in V2: All numeric ID and UUID routes have been removed for security.

Before (V1):

After (V2):

Migration Steps:

  1. Update any bookmarked URLs to use hashid format
  2. Update external integrations to use hashid URLs from your application
  3. Important: Webhook payloads intentionally contain numeric form_id and submission_id for efficient database lookups by external systems. Only public-facing URLs use hashids for privacy.

Generating Hashid URLs in Code:
