I have form that I have customized using the recomended method of creating a folder with the GUID of the form, copying in the form.cshtml file and editing to my requirements.
This is the 3rd time I have done exactly that on this site but I have not hit a probelm until now.
The differnce here is that this form is getting added to the page via the document template where the user needs to use the formPicker to add the form. Like this.
The other 2 forms are added via the Content view. ie: manually.
I have customised this form using the method above but the customized version is not displayed on the site where the form was added with the formPicker.
If I add the same form to a page using the manual method, my customizations work as expect. Same form, 2 seperate pages, one picks up the customized verison, the other not. The later being added with the formPicker.
Is this a bug with Contour? Or is this something that can be fixed?
Hey Brad, looks like you are using the usercontrol macro (this is the old one that doesn't support customization) switch it to using the razor one and it will work like expected :)

To quickly change this just update the alias attribute to umbracoContour.RazorRenderForm
Give that man a cigar (or a beer).. That did the trick. Thanks Tim.
Note all.. this is not a BUG like my original post suggested.
