Possible the "easiest" way to do this is to create JSP Override for the configuration.jsp of the forms module, see https://help.liferay.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017881152-JSP-Overrides-Using-OSGi-Fragments

To automatically save your configuration just be sure that your <input>-Fields have a name in the form "preferences--somePreferenceKey--" as described here: https://help.liferay.com/hc/en-us/articles/360018178611-Using-Configurable-Portlet-Preferences#step-2-create-the-configuration-jsp-for-displaying-the-portlet-preference-options

Where can i find the direct path to configuration.jsp of the forms module? In the example that you linked they override login.jsp in  com.liferay.login.web bundle. Which bundle is suitable for me ?

The module you are looking for would probably be "com.liferay.dynamic.data.mapping.form.web". Inside that module you will find the configuration.jsp inside the directory "display". 

You did not write which Liferay version you are using. The module above is found in Liferay 7.3
