## Description

**FormFork Connect** adds a top-level **FormFork** studio menu to WordPress Admin
pre-configured for `https://formfork.io`:

 1. **Top-Level FormFork Menu & Guided 3-Step Onboarding Wizard**:
 2.  * **60-Second Setup Wizard**: Connect your `ff_live_...` API key in one click,
       launch a ready-made form from **4 Starter Templates** (_Contact & Inquiry_, 
       _Lead Capture & Project Quote_, _Customer Experience Survey_, _Client Intake&
       Digital Sign-Off_), and auto-generate a draft WordPress page with the form pre-
       embedded.
     * **All Forms**: View all synced workspace forms with **1-Click Copy** buttons
       for both Native and Hosted Iframe shortcodes, **Edit Authority Lock** badges(`
       Editable Everywhere`, `Locked: WordPress Only`, `Locked: Dashboard Only`), a**
       Sync Now** cache refresh button, and **+ Create New Form**. (Form deletion is
       safely restricted to the FormFork Web Dashboard).
     * **Form Builder**: Full-featured visual Form Builder with **Multi-Step Wizard
       support**, 15 field types (including **Digital Signature Pad**, **Evaluation
       Matrix**, and **File Upload** with size & format limits), **Edit Authority Lock**
       selector, half/full column widths, dropdown/radio/checkbox options, conditional
       visibility logic (`Show when Field X equals Y`), 7 visual theme presets, and
       a side-by-side **Live Interactive Form Preview**.
     * **Settings**: Pre-configured with `https://formfork.io` as the default Platform
       URL, live **Test API Connection** diagnostics, and automatic **Scoped Key** 
       detection (displaying project group and allowed domain restrictions).
 3. **Gutenberg Block, Elementor Widget & Classic Editor Form Picker**:
 4.  * **Elementor Page Builder**: Drag and drop the native **FormFork Form** widget(`
       eicon-form-horizontal`), choose any synced form from the Elementor sidebar dropdown,
       pick from 7 visual themes, and preview it live inside the Elementor canvas.
     * **Block Editor (Gutenberg)**: Search for **FormFork Form** (`formfork/form-embed`)
       to select any synced form from a dropdown and customize render mode or theme
       in the block sidebar.
     * **Classic Editor**: Click the **Add FormFork Form** button next to _Add Media_
       to pick a form and insert the shortcode automatically.
 5. **Server-Side WordPress AJAX Proxy & Transient Caching**:
 6.  * Routes schema fetches and form submissions (including binary `multipart/form-
       data` file attachments) through WordPress `admin-ajax.php` so your `ff_live_...`
       API key stays private on the server and cross-origin CORS issues are eliminated.
     * Caches synced workspace forms and form schemas for 60 seconds using WordPress
       Transients for fast admin and frontend performance.

### Shortcode Usage

 * **Standard Native Embed**: `[formfork id="your-form-id"]`
 * **Override Theme / Button Label**: `[formfork id="your-form-id" theme="frosted-
   crystal" button_text="Get Started"]`
 * **Hosted Iframe Embed**: `[formfork id="your-form-id" mode="iframe" height="620"]`

### External Services

This plugin connects your WordPress site to the **FormFork** form backend and visual
form platform (`https://formfork.io`).

 * **Service Provider**: FormFork (`https://formfork.io`)
 * **When & What Data is Sent**:
    1. **Workspace Sync & Form Builder (WP Admin)**: No external requests are made 
       until an administrator configures a FormFork API key (`ff_live_...`). Once configured,
       the plugin sends your API key (`X-API-Key`), your site’s hostname (`X-Site-Domain`),
       and form schema configurations to `https://formfork.io/api/v1/forms` when viewing
       synced forms, testing the connection, or saving a form in the Form Builder.
    2. **Frontend Form Rendering & Visitor Submissions**: When a visitor views a page
       containing a `[formfork]` shortcode, Gutenberg block, or Elementor widget, WordPress
       fetches the form schema from `https://formfork.io/api/v1/forms/{id}` (cached
       for 60 seconds via WordPress Transients). When a visitor submits a form, the
       submitted field values, any uploaded files, and standard request headers (`Origin`,`
       Referer`, `User-Agent`, `X-Forwarded-For`) are transmitted to `https://formfork.
       io/f/{id}` (or `/api/v1/submit`). In `iframe` mode, the browser loads the hosted
       form from `https://formfork.io/share/{id}`.

    > All Forms**) to connect your API key, create a starter form in 1 click, and publish

## FAQ

### Do I need a FormFork account to use this plugin?

Yes. You can connect a free or paid FormFork workspace (`https://formfork.io`) using
either a full Workspace Server API Key or an Agency Domain-Scoped API Key (`ff_live_...`).

### Can I restrict whether a form is edited in WordPress or on the FormFork Web Dashboard?

Yes. Each form includes an **Edit Authority Lock** setting (`Editable Everywhere`,`
Locked to WordPress Only`, or `Locked to FormFork Dashboard Only`). Form deletion
is restricted to the FormFork Web Dashboard to prevent accidental removal from client
sites.
