Placing a form on a wordpress site, estimate, production and testing
hi all,
just like we did for the STWP kickoff check list, my client wants to put a questionnaire on his site and get results instantly. I need to know what this takes – manpower – how many hours to build, test – I am trying to give him an estimate before going into production. Can you help, WP developers? Is there a plug-in for this functionality?
maybe a workshop on this because this could be a great upsell. upsell upsell! hell yeah.
thank you.

mm a hand-made, simple (name, email, question..) form using ajax and styled according to the site may take 3-4 hours. results would be emailed to the wordpress site owner account.
another possibility is linking a 3rd party form, like aweber/mailchimp. Those usually give you a code that you just copy/paste into the side. Its only html. 1 hour to generate the form in Aweber, copy the code, style it a little, etc.

Juliette – putting it on, if he has it all together and doesn’t make changes, is probably about an hour. Our form (on CW site) is done via Visual Form Builder Pro – a paid plugin. He may want to buy it (you can look up the cost) as it ends up looking pretty good compared to other contact form software.
I think we talked about this on his call, but I don’t remember the details of how this will be used. Will they just fill it out and then they get the results and he gets the results? And then they can connect separately from the form submit?
If he wants an interactive form where the form scores things and gives them some indication, right after they’ve answered questions, online, then that is an entirely different thing than what we have. Just wanted to make sure to mention that since I think that an interactive form was mentioned on our call.
Meagan was the one who created our form on CW site, by the way 🙂 It’s pretty easy to do.
