Introduction
NXP Easy Forms is a Joomla 5+ form builder that pairs a fast drag-and-drop admin with secure submission handling and a practical set of integrations. Start from a ready-made template or a blank canvas, arrange fields by dragging, configure each one in a clean side panel, and publish a production-ready form in minutes. The builder works on desktop and mobile and includes a live preview you can pin beside the canvas.
Build and customize
- Drag-and-drop builder with a Vue 3 admin and a lightweight frontend renderer
- A wide range of field types: text, email, telephone, password, textarea, select, radio, checkbox, file upload, date and time, number, range, URL, color, and linked country and state dropdowns
- Built-in validation rules with custom messages
- Per-form brand color and a light, dark, or auto color scheme, with no custom CSS
- Accessibility baseline: focus visibility, contrast, and error-to-field association
Notifications and integrations
- Email delivery through SMTP and major API providers (SendGrid, Mailgun, Postmark, Brevo, Amazon SES, SMTP2GO, and more)
- Send submissions to Mailchimp and Brevo contact lists
- Connect to Make, Zapier, and Slack through outgoing webhooks
- Create Joomla articles and register users with email verification
- Slow integrations are queued and retried automatically, so they never delay the visitor's response. A bundled Integrations Retry scheduled-task plugin drains the retry queue on a schedule.
Security and anti-spam
- Honeypot, time-trap, CAPTCHA, and rate limiting
- CSRF protection, encrypted secrets, IP anonymization, and input sanitization
- File-upload validation with type and size checks
Place your forms anywhere
- Insert into an article with a shortcode:
{nxpeasyform 1} - Show in any module position with the bundled site module
- Publish as a menu item with SEF-friendly URLs
What is in the package
- Main component for the form builder and submission handling
- Content plugin for the article shortcode
- Web services plugin for the form API
- System plugin that encrypts your email-provider credentials at rest when you save them in component Options (auto-enabled on install)
- Integrations Retry task plugin for scheduled retry of failed integration deliveries - Site module for embedding forms in module positions
- Submissions cleanup task plugin which deletes old stored submissions for forms that have automatic deletion enabled.
Pro edition (optional)
A Pro upgrade adds Stripe and PayPal payments with live totals, conditional logic, multi-step layouts, additional field types, calculations, and CRM and SMS integrations such as Salesforce, HubSpot, and Twilio. The free edition is powerful and fully functional on its own.
What's new in 1.2.9 - August 28, 2026
- NXPInsiders Discord access. Site administrators can join the private Discord, get early builds, influence and support continued development of the Free edition.
- Framework stability improvements.
What's new in 1.2.8 - August 25, 2026
- Better warnings when duplicating or importing forms. Duplicating a form now applies the same safeguards as import, and both show readable messages about any settings that were adjusted.
What's new in 1.2.7 - August 20, 2026
- Fixed a form-builder regression affecting Select fields. Numeric option values and imported Select configurations now save and validate reliably.
What's new in 1.2.6 - August 18, 2026
- Fixed failed sign-ins being treated as successful. A login form that rejected the credentials could report success and continue as though the visitor had signed in; it now shows the correct error.
- Safer error messages on public forms. Unexpected server errors on the login form now show a general message instead of internal technical detail.
- Correct results and no caching for public form responses. Form submissions and login replies now return the right outcome status and are no longer stored by browsers or shared caches.
- Session recovery in the form builder. The builder keeps your administrator session alive while you work, tells you clearly if it expires, and lets you sign back in and carry on without losing unsaved changes.
- Under-the-hood maintenance. Internal modernization for future Joomla compatibility, with no changes to features or workflows.
What's new in 1.2.5 - July 13, 2026
- **Under-the-hood maintenance. Internal housekeeping and stability improvements around installation and updates. No changes to features or workflows.
What's new in 1.2.4 - July 10, 2026
Unlimited active forms on the free edition. Create and publish as many forms as you need.

- Multi-column form layouts are now free. Arrange fields side by side in two- or three-column grids and set each field's width, right from the canvas header.
What's new in 1.2.3 - June 05, 2026
- Scheduled submission cleanup. The per-form "Automatically delete old submissions" option now runs as a dedicated background task, clearing old entries automatically on the schedule you choose. Submissions still awaiting a payment (incoming pro version) are always kept, and large sites are processed in safe batches.
- More reliable submission deletion. Removing several submissions at once, or deleting a form along with its entries, now clears every selected record in one go.
- Cleaner saving in the free edition. Forms no longer show the occasional incorrect "Pro feature" notice when saving standard notification and confirmation email settings.
- Form builder polish. Fixed a harmless background error when opening the form builder, with no visual change.
What's new in 1.2.2 - June 04, 2026
- Appearance controls. Per-form brand color and a light, dark, or auto color mode, with no custom CSS.
- Improved builder preview. Pin the preview beside the canvas; it now reflects form structure, layout, and submit-button settings accurately.
- 13 new validation rules. Alpha, numeric, length, email, URL, IP, phone, ZIP, same-as matching, and more, each with custom messages.
- Brevo integration. Send submissions to Brevo contact lists.
- More file-upload types. Accept audio, video, and archive formats with stronger server-side validation.
- Two new templates. Membership Application and GDPR Data Subject Request.
- Security, anti-spam, and accessibility. Tighter submission, login, CAPTCHA, rate-limit, and honeypot handling, plus an accessibility baseline pass (focus, contrast, error-to-field association).
- Plus polish. Safer Custom Text handling, email and success-message placeholders, encrypted queued integration data, localized country names, the Integrations Retry scheduled task, and broad admin and UI improvements.
Version 1.0.14 - April 16, 2026
Fixed a bug where form settings could grow unexpectedly large when saving forms with an encrypted Mailchimp API key configured, potentially causing slow builder loads and database errors. If you experienced slow form editing or "packet too large" errors, updating to 1.0.14 resolves the issue — simply re-save the affected form once after updating.
