You will then be presented with the option to add fields, edit existing fields or edit general form settings.

Editing Form Fields: 

There are 3 primary form field editing options:

Each different type of form field has its own properties. 

  • Label:  Description of the information you'd like to collect from your visitors;
  • Required: A visitor will not be able to submit the form if they leave a required field empty;
  • Drop-down, check box, radio button selections: These type of form fields typically require a few pre-defined options for the visitor to select from. 

Adding New Form Fields:

You can add new form fields at any time by clicking on the button with the plus (+) Add Field. Doing so will present you with several field type options.

Form buttons are edited separately from the main form itself. You can drag the button wherever you'd like and resize it to any size. You can also edit the following attributes:
  • Button text:  This is where you'll choose the text that your form button displays; 
  • Drop shadow:  This adds a subtle drop shadow to the bottom of your form button to give it a 3D look. Rounded Corners:  This allows you to round out the corners of your form button; 
  • Colors:  Select a color for your form button, hover over state, and the text; 
  • Glossy:  This adds a subtle gradient to your form button to give it a 3D look; 
  • Flat:  This adds a flat look to your form button to give it a modern/simple look;
  • Image: This allows you to use an image for your button instead of the predefined styles;
  • Corner radius: This allows you to give your button rounded or straight corners.

The form style option allows you to edit the following attributes:

  • Field Color: The background of the form fields;
  • Field border: The color of the border surrounding form fields;
  • Text input: The color of the text users see when adding text to a field;
  • Inner shadow: Use this to give your form fields depth;
  • Label color:  The color of the field name/description text;
  • Label Position: Where you would like the name/description to appear. Above the field or inside it.

The form's submission option allows you to edit the following attributes:

  • Thank you message: The message that instantly appears when a user submits.
