Installation

Step 1

Copy and paste your access token into craftyclicks_formstack.txt (in place of xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx).

Step 2

In your Formstack form editor add a new “Embed Code” block at the bottom of the form. Edit the block and copy and paste the whole contents of craftyclicks_formstack.txt.

For UK Postcode Lookup, it is assumed that you already have an “Address” group on your form that is set to UK.

For Address AutoComplete, some care needs to be taken regarding country selection. If you want to allow multiple countries, select "Other" for your address group in Formstack. Otherwise select the country you want and modify the enabledCountries option in craftyclicks_formstack.txt to match.

Step 3 (optional)

UK Postcode Lookup: On lines 1 – 36 of craftyclicks_formstack.txt. you will find some configuration settings. You will need to upload any changes again as per step 2.

Address Auto-Complete: You can modify or add configuration settings between lines 6 and 12 of craftyclicks_formstack.txt.
