For most client sites, a working contact path is the highest-value thing on the page. WPOS builds and styles forms, embeds them, and connects them to the form tools you already use. The rule that matters: do not call a form done until you have tested a real submission and the redirect.

Build and style a form

Click where the form should go in the preview, then ask. You can use a native WordPress form or connect a tool like JotForm through Connectors.
Add a contact form to this section with name, email, and message fields, and
style it to match the rest of the page.
Style the form like any other element: click it in the preview and ask for the spacing, field sizes, and button to match your brand. See Styling and brand.

Test the submission and redirect

This is the step people skip and regret. After the form is in place, submit it yourself and confirm what happens next.
1

Publish the page

The form needs a live or staging URL to accept a real submission.
2

Submit a test entry

Fill the form in and submit it the way a visitor would.
3

Confirm the entry arrived

Check that the submission landed where it should, in WordPress, in your form tool, or wherever you route entries.
4

Confirm the thank-you redirect

Make sure the visitor is sent to the right thank-you page after submitting, and that page is published.
A form that looks right but does not deliver the lead is worse than no form. Test the full path, submission to thank-you page, before you go live.

Where forms fit in a launch

Forms are part of the page-by-page build and the post-launch check. See Build a page for the full ship-a-site workflow, and Connectors for wiring a form tool into WPOS.
