Bootstrap 4

The following example assumes you're including necessary Bootstrap 4 JS and CSS. You can place the additional CSS and JS inside the formatting template or add to your site's CSS / JS files.

Bootstrap 4 has reached end of life and no longer receives critical security updates. You should consider updating to Bootstrap 5.

​CSS

The following CSS is a supplemental starting point to get forms appearing robustly.

button[type='submit'].ff-loading {
  display: inline-flex;
  flex-wrap: nowrap;
  align-items: center;
}
button[type='submit'].ff-loading:before {
  content: '';
  display: block;
  flex: 1 0 11px;
  width: 11px;
  height: 11px;
  margin-right: 10px;
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 2px;
  border-color: transparent transparent #fff #fff;
  border-radius: 50%;
  animation: ff-loading 0.5s linear infinite;
}
@keyframes ff-loading {
  0% {
    transform: rotate(0);
  }
  100% {
    transform: rotate(1turn);
  }
}
label.required:after {
  content: '*';
  color: #d00;
  margin-left: 5px;
}
ul.errors {
  display: block !important;
}
.is-invalid {
  color: #dc3545;
}
.submit-align-left {
  text-align: left;
}
.submit-align-right {
  text-align: right;
}
.submit-align-center {
  text-align: center;
}
.submit-align-center button:not(:first-of-type),
.submit-align-left button:not(:first-of-type),
.submit-align-right button:not(:first-of-type) {
  margin-left: 5px;
}
.submit-align-spread button:first-child {
  float: left;
}
.submit-align-spread button:last-child {
  float: right;
}

​JS

The following JS is a supplemental starting point to handle additional elements in the form.

// Styling for AJAX responses
document.addEventListener('freeform-ready', function (event) {
  var freeform = event.target.freeform;
  freeform.setOption('errorClassBanner', ['alert', 'alert-danger', 'errors']);
  freeform.setOption('errorClassList', [
    'help-block',
    'errors',
    'invalid-feedback',
  ]);
  freeform.setOption('errorClassField', ['is-invalid', 'has-error']);
  freeform.setOption('successClassBanner', [
    'alert',
    'alert-success',
    'form-success',
  ]);
});
// Styling for Stripe Payments field
document.addEventListener('freeform-stripe-styling', function (event) {
  event.detail.base = {
    fontSize: '16px',
    fontFamily:
      '-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,"Segoe UI",Roboto,"Helvetica Neue",Arial,sans-serif,"Apple Color Emoji","Segoe UI Emoji","Segoe UI Symbol","Noto Color Emoji"',
  };
});
