Widget Wednesday: Yola Form Widget
Linking your email on your website is so 1999, and it’s an open invitation to spammers to send you oodles of unwanted mail. Still, it’s important to make it easy for your site visitors to contact you. Utilizing the Yola Form Widget is the perfect solution to this conundrum.
Simply drag and drop the Form Widget onto your website and you can instantly customize it allowing you to capture all the information you want to know from your website visitors. You can opt to add a simple Contact Us Form or add a Blank Form in order to poll your visitors on any number of topics.
When someone fills in your form, their message will be emailed to the email address that you use to log into your Yola account. You can easily change the address by clicking on the Settings link on your Yola Form Widget.
Be sure to check out our tutorial for step by step instructions to customize your Yola Form now!

I would love for this widget to be able to be dropped into a blog post…but I dont think it can be, can it? That way we could get some interactivity on our blog posts…ask questions…ask for feedback etc.

Is there any way for visitors to upload files and send them to me through this form, I’m interested in opening an online printing business and will need this function.

Hi David,
The Yola Form doesn’t offer file uploads at this time but there are alternative form options that provide this such as Wufoo.
