Re: [development] finding the $form_id of a particular form / all forms.

Hello,

hook_form_alter() allows us to change forms according to their form_id: http://api.drupal.org/api/HEAD/function/hook_form_alter

Am I missing something easy, or the only way to figure out what is the form_id of a specific form is to pour over the code and figure out which module initialized the said form? Devel.module doesn't seem to help with that.

thanks,

Augustin.

Make a module (here test.module): <?php function test_form_alter($form_id, &$form) { $form['test_form_id_display'] = array('#weight' => -20, '#type' => 'markup', '#value' => check_plain($form_id)); } Voila. Regards, Heine // yes, I may be paranoid.
