• Creating A New Form on Easy Form Builder

Adding a New Form

Before you start, ensure that you have installed and activated the Easy Form Builder plugin on your WordPress site. To create a new form, log in to the WordPress admin area and click on “Easy Form Builder” in the admin sidebar to go to the Forms Overview page. Next, click on the “Create” button in the sidebar to launch Easy Form Builder.

On the Easy Form Builder page, you can choose the type of form you want to create. In this article, we’ll show you how to create a contact form.

Customizing Your Form

Once you have selected a form template, the form builder will take you to the Fields screen where you can customize your form. The left panel will show you the available fields. You can drag and drop fields such as Telephone number, Signature, Location Picker, E-mail, and Password from the left side of the page to your form.

Accessing Field Options

To access your field option settings, click on the Settings icon on the box inside the form. This enables you to configure the details and settings of each field, such as its label and description, and advanced settings like label size, label color, description color, field color, border color, placeholder label, position label, align description, and align CSS .

To view the form you have created, click on it in the PC preview in the header panel.

To add a field to your form, you can drag and drop it directly into the form. For example, I added TEL to the Contact Form. 

Editing Form Settings

To access your form’s settings, click on the “Form Settings” tab on the header bar of the form builder. Here you can customize the setting options of forms, including Active Confirmation Code, Google reCAPTCHA, Icon and Step Name, Progress Bar, Private Form, and Admin Email to receive an email notification.

In this step, you can customize the setting options of forms:

Active the Confirmation Code: This option allows you to show a confirmation code in filled-out contact forms or other types of forms. This can help prevent spam submissions and ensure that only real users are submitting the form.

Add Google reCAPTCHA to the form: Google reCAPTCHA is a free security service that helps protect your website from spam and abuse. By enabling this option, you can add a reCAPTCHA widget to your form, which requires users to prove that they are not a robot before they can submit the form.

Hide Icons and Steps name: If you are creating a multi-step form, this option allows you to hide the icons and step names that appear at the top of the form. This can make the form look cleaner and less cluttered.

Hide Progress Bar: This option allows you to hide the progress bar that appears at the top of the form when you create a multi-step form. The progress bar shows users how far along they are in the form completion process. If you hide the progress bar, users won’t be able to see how much more they need to complete.

Do not show the background: This option allows you to remove the default background from your form. This option is helpful if you want to customize your form’s background or if you prefer to have no background at all.

Private form: This option allows you to manage form permissions and add access control rules. You can choose to make the form accessible only to members of your website or limit access to certain groups of users. This can help keep your form secure and prevent unauthorized access.

Admin Email to receive an email notification: By enabling this option, you can receive an email notification whenever someone submits a form on your website. This can help you respond to inquiries quickly and keep track of form submissions.

After creating your form, you need to save it and copy the shortcode to display it on your website.

Displaying Forms on Your Site

There is a way to add your forms to your site. This tutorial will focus on how to display forms on your site within a page or a post.

Embedding Your Form with the Block Editor

You can add your forms to your site by embedding them in a page or post. Once you’ve opened the page editor, add a new block by clicking the plus (+) icon in the upper left corner. Then paste the shortcode in the content of the post or page.

Finally, click on the save button, and your form is ready to publish. To preview your form, click on the view post button.

Empty Step Alert

If you want to create a multi-step form, you must first fill step one with fields like Email, Text, Check Box, and more. Then you can insert a step to the form and drag other options to your second step.

Note that you cannot delete the first step of forms, and the form cannot be saved if steps remains empty. You will receive an error message, and you must proceed truly and ensure that no steps remain empty.

That’s it! You now know how to create forms using Easy Form Builder. Remember to optimize your content with relevant keywords and meta tags to improve your search engine ranking. By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your forms are professional-looking, functional, and easy to use.
