Creating a Form

Forms let your visitors submit information — contact requests, prayer requests, signups, and more.

Creating a form

  1. Go to Structure → Forms
  2. Click the + button
  3. Enter a Title (this is for your reference, not shown to visitors)
  4. Add Form Fields — choose from text inputs, dropdowns, checkboxes, and more
  5. Set the Submit Button Text (e.g., "Send Message")
  6. Configure Email Recipients — who receives submissions

Form field types

  • Text Input: A single-line text field
  • Text Area: A multi-line text field for longer responses
  • Select/Dropdown: A list of predefined options to choose from
  • Checkbox: A yes/no toggle
  • Radio Buttons: Multiple choice where only one option can be selected
  • Section: Not a field at all — display-only text that appears in the form where you place it. Use it for a section heading, instructions partway down a long form, or a short disclaimer above the submit button. Visitors can't fill it in, and it never shows up in submission emails.

Breaking a long form into sections

Add a Section item wherever you want text between fields. Inside it you can use:

  • Headings (Heading 2, 3, or 4) to title a group of fields
  • Paragraphs — press Enter for a new paragraph, and each one gets its own line
  • Dividers to draw a horizontal rule between groups
  • Bold, italics, and links, same as a field note

A long registration form reads much better as "Your details / Your guests / Payment" than as twenty fields in a row.

Confirmation emails

You can set up a Confirmation Email that automatically sends to the person who submitted the form. This is great for acknowledging receipt of their message.

Tip: To display a form on a page, you embed it via the page's content blocks. Forms aren't standalone pages — they're components you place within pages.
