To customize the frontend item form, you need to create a joomla template override for the file:

components/com_flexicontent/views/items/tmpl/form.php
  1. copy above file to templates/mytemplate/html/com_flexicontent/items/form.php 
  2. modify it to suit your needs

TIP 1: You cannot override the view file components/com_flexicontent/views/items/view.html.php, but you can copy code from this file to your joomla template override. TIP 2: You can use create many different forms , e.g. form1.php , form2.php, form3.php and link to them by creating joomla menu items of type external link:

  • index.php?option=com_flexicontent&view=items&layout=form1
  • index.php?option=com_flexicontent&view=items&layout=form2 
  • index.php?option=com_flexicontent&view=items&layout=form3
