Entityform user documentation (version 7.x-1.0-rc2)

This document will provide instruction regarding what information should be supplied to each question on the Home » Administration » Structure » Entityform Types » Edit "Form Name" form.

We have documented all of the fields on the Edit Entityform Type edit screen. While you can read all of the user documentation, you can click on the below links and it will take you directly to the instructions for the specified field.

When I was first researching Entityforms and other survey form modules, I had four basic questions I was trying to resolve.

1. I don't want to create a survey form, so why would I want to use a survey form module?
2. How does Entityform help solve my problem?
3. When should I use it
4. How is it different from other solutions?

After doing some research and talking with Tedbow, this modules author, I think I can start to answer these questions.

I don't want to create a survey form, so why would I want to use a survey form module?

I just had this same discussion with a friend of mine the other day. She wanted to include a signup form at the bottom of an event content type node. This sign up form would allow people to register for the event. (Yes, I know she could’ve used the signup module. However she needed more functionality than the signup module offered.) I suggested she use either Entityform or Webform. Her immediate response was "I want to create a signup form, not a survey form". And therein lies the confusion of “survey” form modules.
