How Do I Create A Custom Lead Capture Form?

To add your own custom lead capture form, please follow these steps:

1. Login to the Admin by visiting www.zealder.com.
2. From the control panel dashboard navigate to the "Website >> Pages >> Manage Pages/Sections" page.
3. On the Manage Pages/Sections page, click "Add Form" in the Actions column, next to the page where you want to add a form.
   Note: Forms are added to existing pages. You must first follow the instructions for adding a page, before you can add a form to the page. Content that you add to the page itself will display above the form on the page.
4. On the Form - Step 1 page some default fields will automatically be populated to get you started but you can customize the fields list:
   1. First, start by deleting the fields that you don't need. To delete a form field, click "Delete" in the Actions column, next to the field that you want to delete.
   2. Edit any field that you want to change settings for (for example, you may want to make a default field that is Required, optional. To edit a form field, click "Edit" in the Actions column, next to the field that you want to edit.
   3. Add any additional fields that you desire for your form. You can add fields from existing system forms, copy a field from another form that you created or simply create a new form field. You have full control over the form fields. You can create virtually any type of form fields when creating custom forms.
   4. Click "Save and Continue to Step 2" at the bottom.
5. On the Form - Step 2 - Footer page:
   1. Use the Text Editor to enter any information that you want to display below the form. This area is usually where you want to add form disclaimers.
   2. Click "Continue" at the bottom.
6. On the Form - Step 3 - Post Output page:
   1. Click the Radio button next to the output you would like to use for the form. Choose between:
      1. Thank You Confirmation: Use the Text Editor to enter a message that will be displayed to users after completing the form.
      2. Jump To Page: Select from the list of existing pages on your website that users will be forwarded to after completing the form. If the page that you select is Hidden from your website's navigation menu, then completing the form will be the only way a user can reach that page. This a great way to easily require a lead capture before allowing users access to certain pages on your website.
      3. Go To URL: Same as the Jump To Page option but allows you to enter the URL for an external website users will be forwarded to after completing the form.
   2. Click "Continue" at the bottom.

   1. Send Lead To: Allows you to enter the email address that lead notifications are sent to. Default is the email address on your account.
   2. Save Lead in Group: Allows you to select which Contact Group if any, that you want to automatically save the lead to. You can also create a new Contact Group specifically for the form.
   3. Auto-Response: You can use the Text Editor to create an auto-response email message that will be sent to users who complete the form. You can format your message with formatted text, links, and photos. This makes it possible to create forms that users can submit to access more information like eBooks, and automatically send this information to them via email.
   4. Click "Continue" at the bottom.
