How to apply form scheme to a form?

The easiest way to apply a form scheme to a form is to edit it from wp-admin / Classifieds / Options / Custom Fields panel, check the “Default” checkbox and save the form.

This will of course work only if each form has only one version, if you have multiple versions of each form, or want to apply a specific form scheme to a shortcode on a page, you can use the form_scheme param it works with [adverts_list], [adverts_add] and Authors registration and search forms.

The first step is to find out the name of the form you want to use, you can do that on the wp-admin / Classifieds / Options / Custom Fields list

Assigning form schemes to shortcodes

The form name to use you will of course in the last column.

Now if (based on the image above) you want to use the [adverts_add] shortcode with the “test2”  form scheme you need to go to wp-admin / Pages panel, edit the page where you want to show this form, and in the content put below shortcode

[adverts_add form_scheme="test2"]

Similarly, if you would like one of the pages with [adverts_list] shortcode to use the “empty-search” scheme you would need to edit this page from the Pages panel and put in the content the shortcode below

[adverts_list form_scheme="empty-search"]

What if I would like each category to have its own form scheme?

This requires a different approach, we have it described in more detail in the Different form for each category article.
