Extends and enhances the Yii ActiveForm widget. Facilitates all three form layouts available in Bootstrap i.e. vertical, horizontal, and inline. Allows options for offsetting labels and inputs for horizontal form layout. Works closely with the extended ActiveField component. In addition, this extension enhances and extends the Yii ActiveField component. Allows Bootstrap styled input group addons to be prepended or appended to textInputs. Implements feedback icons within inputs based on contextual states. Automatically adjusts checkboxes and radio input offsets for horizontal forms.
