Contact forms & leads

Your site comes with a contact form wired up and ready — when a visitor fills it in, the enquiry lands in the Inbox in Contacts and you get an email notification. Nothing to set up.


How it works


  1. A visitor fills in the form on your published site (name, contact details, what they need).
  2. The enquiry appears instantly in Contacts in your sidebar, on the Inbox tab — see Viewing your leads.
  3. You also get an email notification so you can reply fast: see Talk to your customers. Speed matters: most customers go with whoever responds first.

Change what the form asks


Click the form in the editor and tell the AI what you want:


  • "Add a phone number field"
  • "Ask which service they need, with a dropdown of my services"
  • "Make the message field optional"

Change the thank-you message


After a visitor sends the form, your thank-you message replaces it on the page. To change it, ask the AI in the editor: "Change the thank-you message to …". For a form section, you can also click it, open More options and edit Thank-you message. Write it in your site's language.


Type {{name}} where the visitor's first name should go: "Thanks {{name}}, we'll call you today." If they didn't give a name, it's left out. Your live site shows the new message after you publish.


Change where notifications go


Notification emails go to your account email by default. To use a different address: Site settings → Notifications → Notification Email.


Tips


  • Keep forms short — every extra required field loses real enquiries. Name, contact, and one question is the sweet spot.
  • Forms only accept submissions on your published site. In the editor preview, submissions don't send.
