Edit patient forms

Hi @harmone75 -
The forms in openemr/interface are plain php files so can be customized freely if you know php or somebody who does.
If the form is a LBF (in Openemr 6.0 find them in Administration/ Forms/ Layouts ) you can modify them, as long as you keep track of any special functions that some of them are linked to.
Conversely, if you’re not into php coding, you can create your own lbf forms and add them to your EMR.
A simple search here on this forum for ‘create lbf’ will return LOTS of info on how to do that, and the wiki also has some worthwhile docs:
https://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/LBV_Forms
Older tutorial for making LBFs but much good information

https://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Sample_Layout_Based_Visit_Form
Supplement to the LBV Forms page with practical usage examples

LBFs as made for the Portal are exhaustively discussed in this forum thread:

Other matters are also shown on that page, so it must be read carefully.

Good luck!
