Container

The foundation of every FreshForms setup. This macro acts as the wrapper that contains all field elements.

Why it’s useful: Keeps your form organized in one place, making it easier to manage, style, and display results.

How to Add a FreshForms Container#

1. Edit the page where you want to add the form.
2. Click the “Insert More Content” button (usually represented by a “+” icon).
3. From the dropdown, select FreshForm — as shown in the screenshot.

This will insert a FreshForms container where you can configure your form settings.

Configuration Options#

Form Name#

Required. A unique identifier for your form on the page. Must be alphanumeric (letters and numbers only) and cannot contain spaces or special characters.

Example: LeaveRequestForm or Feedback2025

Submission Options#

• One Submission per User: Limits each logged-in user to a single submission. Useful for forms like surveys or one-time acknowledgments.
• Anonymous: Allows users to submit without recording their username. Check this if privacy is a concern or if submissions should be fully anonymous.

Note: These cannot be used together.

Email To#

Enter the email address(es) to which form submissions should be sent. To send notifications to multiple recipients, separate each email address with a comma.

Example: admin@yourcompany.com, hr@yourcompany.com

Email From#

Specify the sender email address that should appear in the email. This helps identify where the submission came from and improves deliverability.

Note: Ensure this email address is allowed by your mail server or domain.

Email Subject#

Set a subject line for the email notification sent when someone submits the form. This helps recipients quickly identify what the email is about.

Example: New PTO Request Submission or Incident Report Received
