Make Episerver Forms a Little More Bootstrap Friendly
You may have noticed that the way the Episerver Forms package renders form elements that it isn’t really bootstrap friendly. Well there is a way to fix that.
Dig down into \modules\_protected\EPiServer.Forms\EPiServer.Forms.zip\Views\ElementBlocks\ and copy those ascx files into \Views\Shared\ElementBlocks.
Then you can tweak each template.
A couple of examples:
- On TextboxElementBlock.ascx add “form-group” to the class attribute on the outer DIV and add “form-control” to the class attribute for the input tag.
- On SubmitButtonElementBlock.ascx add “btn” to the class attribute.
Your form should now pickup bootstrap’s form styles.
