Contact form: static text field?

  • azscvgs · Member ·

    I’m creating a page with a contact form. I can insert descriptive text of my own either before the form, or after it (“Howdy” or “Bye now”). But within the form itself, where the questions are, I’m not seeing any way to put text that’s not tied to one particular question (“These first questions are …”, “This second set is …”). I could mess with the generated short codes, but I don’t like to do that. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Hello there,

    You can just add the text at the places you need in the code, but make sure they are in-between the code [contact form] and [/contact form]

    I just tried what you were trying and here is how it looks

    Here is the code I used, from a generic contact template.

    [contact-form]

First set of questions:-
[contact-field label="Name" type="name" required="true" /]
[contact-field label="Email" type="email" required="true" /]
[contact-field label="Website" type="url" /]

Second set of questions:-

[contact-field label="Comment" type="textarea" required="true" /]
[/contact-form]

    Hope this helps.
