Use the Contact Form to add a complete web form to your site. The Contact Form allows you to provide visitors with a variety of input areas; specific text, drop-down, radio buttons, check boxes, date, time, email, and phone numbers. You can use the form for email newsletter opt-ins, customer questions, or simply to gather feedback from your site visitors.
On radio buttons and check boxes, you can add images to display for the options. The images will not appear in the email received from the form submissions, but the selected label appears (even if hidden on the site).
We do not recommend duplicating contact forms, as this typically results in issues in the duplicated contact form.
