Customize Petition Form Template

You need basic PHP coding knowledge to customize the FORM. However, if you face any issues, contact me via the support page. I’ll be happy to assist you. https://themeforest.net/user/xenioushk

Step 01:
Go to the wp-content/plugins/petitions-manager/petition_templates folder.

Step 02:
Copy the petition_templates folder and paste in to currently activated theme folder.

Step 03:
We assume “appeal” is our currently activated theme. Next, go to the wp-content/themes/appeal/petition_templates folder and open the sign_form.php file. Go to line no 114 and you will get the code like following screenshot.

Example Shortcode:

$shorcode_string = '[bpsff cc="2" ft="input" fn="bpt_user_name" fp="' . __('Your Name', 'bwl_ptmn') . '" fr=1 fer="' . __('Name Required', 'bwl_ptmn') . '" /]';
$shorcode_string .= '[bpsff cc="2" ft="input" fn="bpt_user_email" fp="' . __('Your Email', 'bwl_ptmn') . '" fr=1 fer="' . __('Invalid Email.', 'bwl_ptmn') . '" /]';
$shorcode_string .= '[bpsff cc="2" ft="input" fn="zipcode" fc="bpcf zipcode" fp="' . __('Zipcode', 'bwl_ptmn') . '" fr=1 /]';
$shorcode_string .= '[bpsff rs=0 cc="1" ft="input" fn="bpt_user_address" fp="' . __('ADDRESS', 'bwl_ptmn') . '" fr=1 fer="' . __('Address Required', 'bwl_ptmn') . '" sts="' . $opt_address_status . '"/]';
$shorcode_string .= '[bpsff cc="2" ft="input" fn="city" fc="bpcf" fp="' . __('CITY', 'bwl_ptmn') . '" fr=1 /]';
$shorcode_string .= '[bpsff cc="2" ft="input" fn="state" fc="bpcf" fp="' . __('STATE', 'bwl_ptmn') . '" fr=1 /]';
