Website Builder (for WordPress) - How to Add and Manage Contact Forms

One of the elements you can add to your website is a contact form. Contact forms give visitors to your website an easy way to send you an inquiry. They can also be an effective way to collect information from your visitors.

2. Click the + (Add Section) icon. A 'Sections' menu will open to the left.
3. Select Contact Form from the 'Sections' menu.
4. Select a layout option, and the Website Builder will add the form to your page.

Once added, you can make changes to your contact form at any time.

Managing Contact Forms

1. Select the Contact Form you wish to edit.
2. Click the 'Settings' (gear) icon and the Contact form options menu will appear.
   
3. You will have four sets of settings to customize your contact form preferences:
   
   • Form Fields: Here, you can toggle what information your form will collect from visitors.
   • Form Address: You can specify which email address you will receive emails from the contact form submissions.
   • Success Message: Here, you can set the confirmation message visitors will see upon successfully submitting your form.
   • Permission Message: Add a custom message to let visitors know they need to permit you to email them back. 
4. Click the Save button when finished to save changes.

Checking Contact Form Submissions

While you should receive an email notification when someone submits information through a form on your site, you can also check submissions from within your Bluehost Website Builder.

1. Select the contact form for which you would like to check submissions. The Contact Form menu will appear to the right.
2. Select the Manage form submissions button, and your form submissions will load.
   
3. Click Refresh to check for new submissions.

Deleting Contact Forms

To delete a contact form, simply remove the section. For more information on managing sections, please see Bluehost Website Builder - How to Manage Sections.
