Content Type vs. WebForm
Last updated on
30 April 2025
There are a few resources available for deciding whether to use a node based Content Type vs. a WebForm, but none of them take the CiviCRM/Webform question into consideration so we'll need to write our own.
Content Types already exist for Show, Project, and Reservations.
- Display vs. Internal Use?
-
Advantages of WebForms:
- Expected workflow included "out of the box" for features like email and CSV exports
- Less "clutter" in Admin > Content
Examples where WebForms is the best fit:
- Internship Application
- Contact Us
