For the most part, that package contains the “active” parts that you need to know about, and this package provides “passive” overrides that make the forms integrate with Plone.FeaturesThe following Plone and z3c.form integration is addedPlonemain_template.ptintegrationPlone specific widget frameDate/time pickersWYSIWYG widget (TinyMCE visual editor with Plone support)CRUD formsOut of the box form templatesThe form and widget templates are applied in the following orderplone.app.z3cformspecificplone.z3cformspecificz3c.formspecificplone.app.z3cformpackage overrides the@@ploneform-macrosview fromplone.z3cform, using standard Plone markup for form fields, fieldsets, etc.All the macros described inplone.z3cformare still available.
In addition, you can use thewidget_renderingmacro to render all the default widgets, but none of the fieldsets (groups) or the fieldset headers (which would be rendered with thefieldsmacro).Each widget is rendered using the@@ploneform-render-widgetview, which by default includes the widget’s label, required indicator, description, errors, and the result ofwidget.render().
This view may be overridden for particular widget types in order to customize this widget chrome.Customizing form behaviorForm methodIf your form instance defines a property calledmethodit allows you to set whether form is HTTP POST or HTTP GET.
The default is POST.
This translates to<formmethod="post">attribute.Example:class HolidayServiceSearchForm(form.Form):
        """ Example search form of which results can be bookmarked.

        Bookmarking is possible because we use HTTP GET method.
        """

        method = "get"Form actionFormactionproperty defines HTTP target where the form is posted.
The default is the same page where the form was rendered,request.getURL().Example:class HolidayServiceSearchForm(form.Form):

    def action(self):
        """ Redefine <form action=''> attribute.

        We use URL fragment to define the <a> anchor
        were we directly scroll at the results when the form is posted,
        skipping unnecessary form fields part. The user can scroll
        back there if he/she wants modify the parameters.
        """

        # Context item URL + form view name + link fragment.
        # This works for HTTP GET forms only.
        # Note that we cannot use request.getURL() as it might contain
        # 1) prior fragment 2) GET query parameters messing up the UrL
        return self.context.absolute_url() + "/holidayservice_view" + "#searched"Fieldsets and tabsYou can fieldsets to your form if you subclass the form from z3c.form.group.GroupForm.
The default behavior of Plone is to turn these fieldsets to tabs
(as seen on anyEditview of content item).You can disable this behavior for your form:class ReportForm(z3c.form.group.GroupForm, z3c.form.form.Form):

    # Disable turn fieldsets to tabs behavior
    enable_form_tabbing  = FalseUnload protectionThe default behaviour on Plone is to add a confirm box if you leave a form you have modified without having submitted it.You can disable this behavior for your form:class SearchForm(z3c.form.group.GroupForm, z3c.form.form.Form):

    # Disable unload protection behavior
    enable_unload_protection  = FalseAutofocusThe default behaviour on Plone Forms is to use the formautofocus pattern to focus the “first” input field.You can disable this behavior for your form:class SearchForm(z3c.form.group.GroupForm, z3c.form.form.Form):

    # Disable autofocus behavior
    enable_autofocus = FalseCSRF ProtectionA common vulnerability affecting web forms is cross-site request forgery (CSRF).
This attack occurs when the user of your site visits a third-party site that uses Javascript to post to a URL on your site without the user’s knowledge, taking advantage of the user’s active session.plone.app.z3cform can protect against this type of attack by adding a unique token as a hidden input when rendering the form, and checking to make sure it is present as a request parameter when form actions are executed.To turn on this protection, enable the form’s enableCSRFProtection attribute.
Example:class PasswordForm(form.Form):
    """Form to set the user's password."""
    enableCSRFProtection = TrueForm main template overrideForms are framed byFormWrapperviews.
It places rendered form inside Plone page frame.
The defaultFormWrapperis supplied automatically, but you can override it.Below is a placeholder example with few<select>inputs.Examplereporter.py:from Products.Five.browser.pagetemplatefile import ViewPageTemplateFile as FiveViewPageTemplateFile

[datakurre]2.1.2 (2016-12-02)Bug fixes:Remove ZopeTestCase.
[ivanteoh, maurits]In select widget, accept items as property or method.
This avoids breaking on some z3c.form versions.
Seehttps://github.com/zopefoundation/z3c.form/issues/44[maurits]2.1.1 (2016-09-16)Bug fixes:Enable unload protection by using pattern classpat-formunloadalertinsteadenableUnloadProtection.
[thet]2.1 (2016-08-12)New features:Related items data converter supports explicit value_type specified in
field when using collections of UUID values.  This is backward-compatible
with previous conversion to field values, supports str/unicode value(s),
whichever is specified by field.
[seanupton]Support functions as values in thepattern_optionsdictionary, which gets then serialized to JSON.
Before that, walk recursively throughpattern_optionsand call all functions with the widgets context.

so it’s possible to override the widget rendering without
changing the markup surrounding it.
[davisagli]Restored support for contents without acquisition chain
[keul]0.7.1 (2013-01-01)Overrode ObjectSubForm for IObject field in order to provide get_closest_content

changes made in sunburst/public.css and archetypes. Fixes double required
markers in Plone 4.2rc1.Pull form help inside label tag and make it a span rather than a div. The
purpose is to improve accessibility by making the semantic connection between
label and help. Related tohttp://dev.plone.org/ticket/7212Use ViewPageTemplateFile from zope.browserpage.
[hannosch]0.5.8 (2012-05-07)Prevent empty error divs from being generated if errors are already associated
with a field.
[davidjb]0.5.7 - 2011-11-26Corrected formatting for errors on the FieldWidgets object (i.e. from
invariants). This closeshttp://code.google.com/p/dexterity/issues/detail?id=238[davisagli]Added thei18n:domainattribute in the firstdivofwidget.ptin order to make the
“required” tooltip translatable. Fixeshttp://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/12209[rafaelbco]0.5.6 - 2011-06-30Make sure group errors get styled like field errors.
[davisagli]Include group and field descriptions as structure.
[davisagli]0.5.5 - 2011-06-26Make it possible to add a custom CSS class to a form by setting itscss_classattribute.
[davisagli]Match plone.z3cform’s template in including the form description as
structure.
[davisagli]0.5.4 - 2011-05-04Customize templates for multi and object widgets for more consistent styling.
[elro]Remove dependency on zope.app.component.
[davisagli]Add MANIFEST.in.
[WouterVH]Raise LookupError when terms are not found (e.g. they are no longer visible due to security)
[lentinj]0.5.3 - 2011-01-22Fix test setup in Zope 2.10.
[davisagli]0.5.2 - 2011-01-18Don’t use collective.testcaselayer based IntegrationTestLayer as it leads to
PicklingError on Plone 4.1.
[elro]Change inline validation to match archetypes behavior - add a warning class and
omit the error message.
[elro]0.5.1 - 2010-11-02Make sure form.extractData() does not raise an AttributeError if the method is
called before the form is available (first page load).
[timo]This package now uses the plone i18n domain.
[vincentfretin]Added option to override <form action=””>.
[miohtama]Updated README regarding form action and method.
[miohtama]0.5.0 - 2010-04-20Render errors from group form widget manager validators.  Fixeshttp://code.google.com/p/dexterity/issues/detail?id=96[davisagli]Default to showing the default fieldset, rather than the first non-default
fieldset.
[davisagli]Replace the required field indicator image with a unicode box, refshttp://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/10352[davisagli, limi]Replaced the existing radiobutton-based boolean widget with the standard
single checkbox Plone version.
[limi]Add @@ploneform-render-widget view, so that the widget chrome can be
customized for particular widget types.
[davisagli]Added slots to thetitlelessformmacro. SeeREADME.txtinplone.z3cformfor details.
[optilude, davisagli]Cleaned up templates to match Plone 4 conventions.
[optilude]Made templates and inline validation work with standalone forms as supported
by plone.z3cform 0.6 and later.
[optilude]Installed a browser layer IPloneFormLayer with this package’s extension
profile. This inherits from z3c.form’s IFormLayer, allowing the default
widgets to work. You should always install this package in
portal_quickinstaller before using z3c.form forms in Plone.
[optilude]Made the textlines widget the default for sequence types with text/ascii
line value types. The default widget from z3c.form is too confusing.
[optilude]Use form method defined in form class. This allows HTTP GET forms.
Before method was hardcoded to “post” in the template. [miohtama]0.4.9 - 2010-01-08Remove unused (and broken on Plone 4) lookup of the current user’s WYSIWYG
editor preference.  The wysiwyg_support template does this for us.
[davisagli]0.4.8 - 2009-10-23Made the KSS validator use publish traversal instead of OFS traversal to find
the form. This makes it usable with forms reached by custom IPublishTraverse
adapters.
[davisagli]Added enable_form_tabbing option to not transform fieldsets into tabs.
[vincentfretin]Added an id to the generated form.
[vincentfretin]Fixed issue in macros.pt: fieldset.current hidden input was never generated.
[vincentfretin]0.4.7 - 2009-09-25Set plone i18n domain for “Info” and “Error” messages in macros.pt so they are translated.
[vincentfretin]0.4.6 - 2009-07-26Include plone.z3cform’s overrides.zcml from our own overrides.zcml.
[optilude]Updated to collective.z3cform.datetimewidget>=0.1a2 to fix a ZCML conflict
with z3c.form.
[davisagli]0.4.5 - 2009-05-25Made the KSS form support conditional on both kss.core and Archetypes being
installed.
[hannosch]Use the date/time widgets from collective.z3cform.datetimewidget as the default
widget for Date and Datetime fields.
[davisagli]0.4.4 - 2009-05-03Made the KSS validator use traversal instead of getMultiAdapter() to find
the form. This makes it work on add forms.
Seehttp://code.google.com/p/dexterity/issues/detail?id=27[optilude]0.4.3 - 2009-04-17Added a display template for the WYSIWYG widget.
[optilude]Make the ?fieldset.current query string variable work. Set it to the id
of a fieldset other than default to pre-select a different fieldset, e.g.
…/@@formview?fieldset.current=3
[optilude]Hide the ‘default’ fieldset if there’s nothing to show there.
[optilude]Provide ‘portal’ variable in wysiwyg template, as its used by some editors.
[davisagli]0.4.2 - 2008-09-04Make the WYSIWYG widget work also for non-Acquisition wrapped
content.0.4.1 - 2008-08-21Removed maximum version dependency on zope.component. This should be left
to indexes, known good sets or explicit version requirements in buildouts.
If you work with zope.component >= 3.5 you will also need five.lsm >= 0.4.
[hannosch]Make use of new plone.z3cform support for looking up the layout template by
adapter. This means that forms now no longer need to depend on
plone.app.z3cform unless they want to use Plone-specific widgets.0.4.0 - 2008-07-31Add inline validation support with KSSRequire zope.component <= 3.4.0 to prevent compatibility issues with
five.localsitemanager, of which a buggy version (0.3) is pinned by
plone.recipe.plone 3.1.4.  Upgrade to this version if you’re seeing:...
Module five.localsitemanager.registry, line 176, in registeredUtilities
ValueError: too many values to unpack0.3.2 - 2008-07-25Fixed a bug in macros.pt where ‘has_groups’ and ‘show_default_label’
for fieldsets were set in the ‘form’ macro, rendering the ‘field’
macro unusable by itself.0.3.1 - 2008-07-24Fixed a bug where we would use the form macros defined in
plone.z3cform instead of our own.0.3 - 2008-07-24Create this package from Plone-specific bits that have been factored
out of plone.z3cform.
