Form-Integration into WORDPRESS made easy

Suggestion Box
1

Problem

  • We are a small association with limited cash-access. Our objective is to implement a KoBo-Enketo Form into our WORDPRESS-site. The currently accessible methods produce a glitch, as the FRAME-HEIGHT of the form doesn’t adapt to the content, nor to the Viewport-Height.
  • Here some details : Clarification on X-Frame-Options Impacting Iframe Height Calculation in WordPress Integration
  • Contradictory to the description in this above mentioned thread, the form’s Height calculation and display isn’t stable (doesn’t work adaptively).
  • We are dealing with children separated from their parents, as a result of protectionist policies in cross-border cases of child-abductions – some for years – and this form will contribute to fixing the issue. asap.

User story

  • A single reliable implementation method solving the form’s HEIGHT-ISSUE would suffice for a further reliable deployment on our side, and securing the interaction with the targeted parents, on the addresses’ side..

Proposal

  • A WORDPRESS-PLUGIN or any alternative fix on KOBOTOOLBOX’s side would be great.
  • Maybe with some kind of switch, enabling FIXED or ADAPTIVE_FORM-HEIGHT-CALCULATION depending on the form’s content (as some content can evolve over time).
  • The fix should also get rid of double scrollbars. The intent is to streamline the implementation with actionable selectors (checkboxes?) enabling/disabling the scrollbar for the Form, in order to keep only the most-right Viewport-scrollbar.
  • Ensuring the fix/plug-in compatibility in an WORDPRESS + ELEMENTOR environment.
  • It’s also important, at least for us, to be inter-operational between KOBO’s server and a shared Hosting server (We have no dedicated server from our Internet Service Provider / we can only afford a shared server plan).
  • Alternative solutions : don’t know any sleek and simple solution.

Other background

  • The PLUG-IN-solution should be designed (and be affordable) for small organizations who can’t pay thousands of $ for a single fix.

    Please feel free to drop us a message for any further details and/or access-data.

    Thanks :seedling:
