How to add a subscription form to your landing page
The landing pages created with the drag & drop editor can contain a subscription form, so as to become a tool for acquiring new subscribers, like the Subscription forms.
Once you have created your landing page, inside the editor, drag the "Form" content into the body of the landing page.
Once you've entered the form, use the Content Properties menu on the right to edit and add your form fields.
From here you can:
- Delete or modify one of the fields inserted by default
- Change the field label (eg "Name" to "What's your name?")
Warning: once the label has been modified, it will no longer be visible in the editor in the original name of the recipient field entered - Drag a field up or down
- Add a new master field by selecting "Add new field"
Select the field you want to insert and then click on edit to change the label (i.e. the name that appears above the field), the type of content, the placeholder (a description to facilitate filling in), whether the field is compulsory, and/or read-only.
