I have followed the steps on "Using a custom template" (http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=form), but I don't know how to add the form to one of my pages.

I have tried placing $PatientForm in, [I had 'class PatientForm extends Form'] and <% include PatientForm %> but they didn't work.

Thanks,
David

Using a custom template
Required Silverstripe 2.3 for some displayed functionality

Has 2.3.0 been released? It's not in the download section or in the SVN as far as I can see...

Figured it out lol, it actually makes sense!

I didn't add this to my php page controller
function Form() {
return new CustomForm($this, "Form");
}

2.3 is very close, and will simply be what is currently in trunk with some more work :)

Look at http://open.silverstripe.com/timeline to see the work happening on the soon-coming v2.3 :)
