Introduction

The Form Embedding Options give users greater control over how and when forms are displayed on their websites or funnels. This feature enables dynamic management of form behavior, offering advanced settings for triggering and deactivating forms based on specific conditions. Although embed codes remain static once added to a website, any modifications to the form—such as layout, triggers, or deactivation rules—necessitate generating and updating the embed code to apply the changes. These options empower users to tailor forms to their objectives, whether enhancing user experience, running time-sensitive campaigns, or optimizing lead collection.

Use Cases

• Time-Limited Campaigns – Deactivate forms after a specific number of displays to enforce urgency or exclusivity, such as for limited-time offers or seasonal promotions
• Lead Management – Deactivate forms after a specific number of displays to enforce urgency or exclusivity, such as for limited-time offers or seasonal promotions

Step By Step Guide

Step 1: Access the Integration Settings 

Navigate to the Form Integration Settings – After creating a form and clicks on the “integrate” button

The following screen shows up – 

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use the entire feature shown in the screenshot, including all embed layout types, activation options, and deactivation options:

Step 2: Choose an Embed Layout Type

You can select how the form will appear on your website or funnel. The options include:

• Sticky Sidebar – The form appears as a sticky element on the left or right of the screen, remaining visible as the user scrolls. This can be minimized or maximized as needed.

Maximized

Minimized

• Polite Slide-In: The form slides in from the left or right side of the screen, subtly catching the user’s attention. It can also be minimized to avoid disruption.

Maximized:

Minimized:

• Popup – The form appears in a modal window that overlays the page content. It grabs immediate attention but requires dismissal to view the underlying content.

• Inline: The form is embedded directly into the page content as a native element. It doesn’t interrupt the user experience.

Step 3: Configure Trigger Options

Trigger options control when the form appears. Select one of the following:

• Show on Scrolling [X]% → The form appears after the user scrolls a certain percentage of the page (e.g., 50%).
• Show After [X] Seconds → The form appears after a delay (e.g., 5 seconds).
• Always Show → The form is always visible and does not rely on user interaction.

Step 4: Set Activation Options

Define when the form should become active:

• Activate on [X] Visit → The form is displayed only after the user has visited the page a set number of times (e.g., on their third visit).
• Always Activated → The form remains active at all times.

Step 5: Set Deactivation Options

Decide when the form should stop being displayed:

• Deactivate After Showing [X] Times → Stops displaying the form after it has been shown a specific number of times (e.g., 3 times).
• Deactivate Once Lead Is Collected → The form deactivates automatically once the user submits their information.
• Never Deactivate → The form remains active and visible indefinitely.

Step 6: Copy and Embed the Form

1. Click “Copy Embed Code” to get the HTML code for embedding the form into your website.
   • Paste this code into your website’s HTML wherever you want the form to appear.
2. Alternatively, click “Copy Form Link” to get a direct URL for the form.
   • Use this link in emails, social media, or other platforms where you want users to access the form.

FAQs

1. How do triggers and deactivation options work together?

Triggers control when the form is displayed, such as after a delay or upon scrolling. Deactivation options dictate when the form stops appearing, like after a set number of views or once a lead is captured. These settings can function together to enhance user engagement dynamically.

2. Do I need to update existing embed codes for the new features to work?

Yes, to use the new embed options (e.g., triggers, deactivation), you need to update the integration by generating a new embed code from the “Integrate Form” section and replacing the old code on your site.

3. Can embedded forms work dynamically if I change my options?

Embed codes are static once they are placed on a website. This means that any changes made to the form require generating and replacing the embed code with the updated version for the changes to take effect.
