How do I set up the Forms page?
Overview
The forms.html page is a critical component of your Weebly site that enables the automatic posting of Online Actions forms. This page comes pre-configured with your site and requires careful handling to maintain its functionality.
Step 1: Locate your Forms page
-
Log into your Weebly site and select "Edit Site"
-
Click on the "Pages" tab at the top of the interface
-
Look for the page named "forms.html" in your page list
-
Important: Do not delete this page or change its URL name, as it is essential for the integration
Step 2: Customize the appearance
-
Click on the "Build" tab while on the forms.html page
-
You can safely modify:
-
Header elements (logo, navigation, colors)
-
Footer elements (contact information, social links)
-
Background colors and images
-
Any content above or below the custom HTML block
-
-
The forms will inherit the overall styling of your site while maintaining their functionality
Step 3: Preserve the custom HTML block
-
In the middle of your forms.html page, you'll see a custom HTML block
-
Do NOT edit or remove this HTML block as it contains the code necessary for displaying your Online Actions forms
-
The block may appear as a gray box with code elements inside it
-
You can add content above and below this block, but the block itself must remain intact
Step 4: Match your Online Actions form design
-
In Online Actions, customize your forms to complement the design of your Weebly site
-
Go to the "Design" tab in Online Actions when editing a form
-
Select colors and fonts that match your Weebly theme
-
Remember that certain elements (banner images, return URLs, etc.) will be controlled by Weebly rather than Online Actions
