Forminator’s Possibilities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are just a few of the ways that Forminator forms can be used on your website:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lead Generation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the most common uses of custom forms is for lead generation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Forminator, you can create lead capture forms that allow visitors to enter their contact information in exchange for something of value, such as a free eBook or discount code. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can then use this information to follow up with leads and convert them into customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contact Forms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Contact forms are essential for any website, allowing visitors to get in touch with you quickly and easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Forminator<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Forminator, you can create custom contact forms that collect the information you need from visitors, such as their names, email addresses, and messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Surveys and Polls<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you’re looking to gather feedback from your visitors, Forminator has you covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Forminator<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can create custom surveys and polls that ask specific questions and allow visitors to provide their answers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can be incredibly valuable for improving your products or services, as well as understanding your audience better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quizzes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Quizzes are a fun way to engage your audience and provide value at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Forminator<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With Forminator Forms, you can create custom quizzes that test visitors’ knowledge of a particular topic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can then provide them with a score or feedback based on their answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, you can also choose a graphical presentation of the results in a pie chart or bar graph form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Payment Forms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you’re selling products or services on your website, Forminator can help you collect payments through custom payment forms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can integrate Forminator forms with payment gateways like PayPal or Stripe, allowing visitors to pay directly on your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Forminator<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Of course, in the paid option you will get many more payment options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Customization Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Forminator comes with a range of customization options that allow you to create forms tailored to your specific needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are just a few of the customization options available:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drag-and-Drop Builder<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Forminator’s drag-and-drop builder makes it easy to create custom forms without any coding knowledge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can simply drag and drop form elements like text fields, checkboxes, and radio buttons onto your form, and then customize them as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Form Templates<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Forminator comes with a range of pre-built form templates that you can use as a starting point for your custom forms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These templates cover a range of use cases, including contact forms, surveys, and quizzes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conditional Logic<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

With Forminator’s conditional logic feature, you can show or hide form elements based on certain conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, you could show a specific question only if the visitor selects a certain option in a previous question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Styling Options<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Forminator comes with a range of styling options that allow you to customize the look and feel of your forms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can change things like the font, color, and size of your form elements to match your website’s branding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forminator forms: creating a contact form<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Fields<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The creation begins by selecting the type of form, which will result in a ready-made template. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Save it immediately under a new name to preserve the template.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insert the fields you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Forminator<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the field settings, you can define whether they are necessary and whether they must be filled in to complete the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of the form, you can insert a Captcha for protection, in which case Forminator will ask you for your Google Captcha key<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Appearance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In Appearance Design Style<\/strong> settings, you can define between 4 types of form presentation: Flat, Bold, Material, None<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"appereance<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you want to quickly see how everything looks in the upper right box, you have the preview button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Appereance-Colors,<\/strong> you can define a color for any part of the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"appereance<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you use Quizzes and show a graphical presentation in the form of a pie chart or bar graph you can define his colors too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Appearance-Fonts settings you can define theme or custom fonts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"appereance<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I don’t think I need to mention that theme fonts are the best option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Appearance-Form Container will allow you to define the padding, border, and spacing of your forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"appereance-<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We also have three spacing options-Comfortable, Compact, and Custom if the first two don’t suit you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the end of appearance options you can add a border on the field container or for advanced users enable custom CSS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"appereance<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Behavior<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The behavior panel contains some options that define the behavior of the form and message in these cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example message after form submission. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"behavior-submission<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The method of submission can be Page reload or Ajax and validation On the submit or Server side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is good to set the option to “Show loader<\/strong>” and define the message as “submitting…”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"behavior-method\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This can be useful when filling out a form on a mobile phone, where the connection is bad so that the user can see that the form is being completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Autofill<\/strong> will enable autofill of your form and the Security<\/strong> option defines the use of Honeypot and Akismet anti-spam plugins and the option for enabling logged-in submission only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"behavior-autofill\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With the Lifespan<\/strong> option, you define the retention time of data collected from the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And last behavior option is form Rendering which means you can load forms with Ajax and prevent page caching on form pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Email Notifications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On the Email Notifications<\/strong> panel by default, when someone fills out the form, you as an administrator will receive an email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"email<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, you can define the message that the person will receive when he fills out the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the free version, it will be possible to define two email addresses to which you will receive notifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forminator integrations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In Forminator forms, it is possible to integrate webhooks plugins and services for processing email addresses like Mailchimp, Google Sheets, AWebwer, ActiveCampaign, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Forminator<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Forminator reports and analytics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every form has its basic reports like Views, Submissions, and Conversion Rate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you press the View Reports<\/strong> button you will also be able to see additional analytics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Forminator<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Inserting a form into a page or post<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The form can be inserted at the desired location in two ways. By selecting a block or inserting a shortcode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the block editor, you need to find Forminator blocks and select the desirable form when the block is added to the page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"forminator<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Or on the WordPress dashboard find a form and click on the gear icon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From opened panel select Copy Shortcode<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
