FormBuilder is a module-based plugin that allows non-technical administrators to create unlimited forms from their control panel. What really sets this apart from other form builders is the ability to record form submissions into the database. We were able to leverage Sitefinity's clean API by extending the Generic Content module (for storing forms) and the Comments framework (for recording submissions).
While one of the most demanded feature for Sitefinity CMS is the ability for administrators to create forms on-the-fly, there is still no built-in capability of this with the current release (v3.7). Indeed, Sitefinity goes a long way to build a solid foundation to extend functionality, so we took it upon ourselves to create this feature and share it with the community.
