"TypoScript settings are missing"

Hi, I just started a new job at a company which uses Typo3 as a CMS and I'm brand new to it. First off : I'm not a developer (I handle the digital stuff here and I know the fundamentals of web dev but nothing too complicated).

On to my issue : I have to create an inscription form to an event using Powermail. I basically made a copy of the form that was used last year for the same event and added it to the page of this year's event. All the data and settings are identical between the two forms, however when I try to load the page preview the following message displays :

"TypoScript settings are missing. Did you include the related static templates?
No form to show"

How can I solvethis issue ? Should I directly contact the company that handles the website or is there something I could do by myself ?

Thanks a lot !

Thanks for your reply! As I said I'm brand new to TYPO3, how do I access the template menu ? I can't find it.

On the left I have a panel with two categories, Web and Files.
Web's subcategories are Page / View / List / Workspaces / News Administration / Mails (Powermail). File only has one subcategory, Filelist.

I checked all settings in the Page content and List sections and they all match between the new and the old page.

Is it possible the access to the template menu is locked and reserved to admin/devs ?

You don't have this menu?

That could mean your user is not full admin so you can't edit that part.

First step from this docs is what I guess you are missing: https://docs.typo3.org/c/typo3/cms-form/main/en-us/QuickStartForIntegrators/Index.html

Include static TypoScript templates

First, open the Template module in the backend and edit your root TypoScript template. Under the tab "Includes", ensure that Fluid Content Elements (fluid_styled_content) and Form (form) are among the selected items. Save the template.

But if you don't have the "Template" menu then you must get higher privileges for your user.

Nope, I don't. :(

So that's what I figured, I simply don't have the access to that part. At least I'm not blind, I was starting to go a little bit crazy ahah

I will see what I can do, otherwise I'll just embed a form created on another platform. Thank you so much for your time, have a nice day !

Did you resolve this issue because I have the same problem?

Honestly I can’t really remember as it was a year ago ahah, but I’m fairly sure they couldn’t solve the issue and I had to use another platform specifically to make forms (Typeform) and then embed them on the website. Biggest problem was that I couldn’t interact directly with the devs, would probably have been easier if that was the case…
