Forms and submissions

Forms, in the Engage part of the sidebar, is a form builder. Each form has its own page on your site, and everything visitors send is kept in your dashboard.

Make a form

1. 1Press New form, give it a Name, and pick a starting point: Blank form, Contact form, Feedback or Event registration. Then Create form.
2. 2On Build, press Add a field. Choose from short and long text, email, phone, number, website address and date; dropdowns, single and multiple choice and checkboxes; and headings and paragraphs for layout. Mark a field Required or Half width.
3. 3On Design, match it to your site: colour, field style, corners, width and the button.
4. 4On Settings, set the Form address, the Heading and Introduction, the Submit button text and the Success message — or send people to a thank-you page with Go to another address after submitting.
5. 5Set the status to Published.

The preview beside the builder is the live form — try it as you go; nothing is sent from there. A form can hold up to 50 fields, and needs at least one before it can be published.

Put it on your site

Every form lives at its own address: /f/ followed by the form address you chose. Use Copy link to share it, and add it to your menu or link to it from any page or post — a Contact item in your navigation pointing at /f/contact, for example.

Reading submissions

Press Submissions on a form to read what came in; new ones are marked until you Mark as read. Download CSV exports them for a spreadsheet. There's no email when a submission arrives, so check the Forms page — the new count shows on each form.

Spam and your monthly limit

Forms are protected against bots with nothing for you to set up, and one visitor can't send more than a handful in a short time. Your plan sets how many submissions your forms accept each calendar month (UTC); the Forms page shows how many you've used and when the count resets. Past the limit, forms politely turn visitors away until the next month, and nothing already collected is lost.

Other languages

On the Translations tab, write the form's words — questions, help text, options, messages — in each of your site's other languages. The fields themselves are shared, and anything you leave empty shows the main text.
