# **What is Forms & Surveys in Funnel & Website Builder?**

Forms & Surveys in GHL Customer Care provides an in‑builder experience for creating, adding, and managing forms or surveys without leaving your funnel or website canvas. Build new forms in a large modal editor, add existing assets with the Form Picker, customize fields and design, and keep everything centrally organized for reuse across funnels, websites, webinars, and e‑commerce stores.

---

## **Key Benefits of Forms & Surveys in Funnel & Website Builder**

Understanding the benefits helps you decide when to create new assets versus reusing existing ones, how to move faster during page building, and where to manage submissions and performance.

-   **Speed inside the builder:** Work in a large, in‑context editor without switching tabs, so you keep momentum while designing pages.
    
-   **Reuse existing assets:** Add any existing form or survey through the **Form Picker**, keeping branding and logic consistent across pages.
    
-   **Template jump‑starts:** Start from curated, theme‑based templates (Application, Contact, Donation, Order, Registration, Request, Subscribe) to avoid building from scratch.
    
-   **One‑click editing:** Drag a form/survey onto the canvas and open the editor instantly to refine fields, styles, and behavior.
    
-   **Unified management:** Every new or added asset is automatically collected in a central list, making it easy to find, duplicate, and reuse.
    
-   **Payments on forms:** Use order‑style templates with the Payment element to sell products or accept donations directly from your form.
    

---

## **Prebuilt Form Templates vs. Themes**

Templates provide ready‑made form structures (e.g., Order or Contact), while **Themes** are visual presets for styling. Choosing the right starting point speeds up build time, and understanding the difference prevents accidental overwrites.

-   **Templates (structure):** Application, Contact, Donation, Order, Registration, Request, Subscribe. Customize fields and settings as needed.
    
-   **Themes (visual styles):** Quickly apply a look; note that switching Themes replaces current style changes.

## **Form Picker**

The Form Picker lets you reuse existing forms or surveys across multiple funnels and websites, keeping experiences consistent and measurable.

-   Search, preview, and select any existing asset.
    
-   On selection, you can drag it to the canvas and open **Edit** for one‑click customization.

## **Unified Management (List View)**

Forms and surveys you create or add are automatically surfaced in a unified list, making it easy to find, duplicate, and reuse across your account’s assets.

-   **Single source of truth:** Forms and surveys created from the Funnel or Website Builder also appear under **Sites → Forms → Builder** and **Sites → Surveys → Builder**, and can be selected via the **Form Picker**.
    
-   View all assets, search, and optionally duplicate for variations.
    
-   Keep naming conventions consistent for accurate analytics and reuse.
    

---

## **Design Controls (Right Sidebar)**

The right sidebar of the Form/Survey Builder centralizes design and behavior controls, so you can quickly adjust presentation and advanced settings.

-   **Fields:** Add, remove, and reorder fields; map to custom fields where needed.
    
-   **Styles:** Fonts, spacing, borders, backgrounds, and button styles.
    
-   **Advanced:** Confirmation behavior, redirects, logic (survey‑specific), tracking, and other options.

3. Advanced: Confirmation behavior, redirects, logic (survey‑specific), tracking, and other options.

### **Updated default styling in the builder**

Forms and Surveys now use a refreshed default theme in the builder.

You may notice:

-   clearer empty states when a page or component has no content,
-   more polished styling for inputs like checkboxes, radio buttons, and monetary fields,
-   improved visual consistency across placeholders, labels, and other supported elements.

These updates apply automatically to the default theme and supported components.

---

## **Localization in Form and Survey Builders**

GHL Customer Care automatically adapts the Form and Survey Builder interface based on your account’s selected language. This ensures a consistent and accessible experience for users working in different languages.

### **What is Localized**

The following interface elements are automatically translated using system-defined translation keys:

Form labels, button text, and instructional messages

Payment footer messaging, including secure payment notices 

Product empty state messages (such as “No products added yet”)  

Labels and tooltips in both General and Advanced settings panels  

### **How It Works**

Localization is controlled by your account’s language settings. Once a language is selected, all supported UI text within the builders updates automatically. No additional configuration is required.

## **Important Notes**

\- This applies only to the builder interface, not to custom text you enter inside forms or surveys

\- Available translations depend on supported languages within GHL Customer Care

## **Frequently Asked Questions**

**Q: Can I customize the prebuilt templates?**  
Yes. Start from any template, then modify fields, styles, and behaviors in the large in‑builder editor.

**Q: What’s the difference between Templates and Themes?**  
Templates are starting structures (e.g., Order, Contact). Themes are visual presets. Switching Themes replaces existing style changes.

**Q: How do I accept payments on a form?**  
Use an Order‑style template, add the Payment element, and connect a supported gateway. Configure products in Products, then test before going live.

**Q: Where do submissions and analytics appear?**  
View entries under **Sites** **→** **Forms → Submissions** or **Sites** **→** **Surveys → Submissions**. For performance, open **Analytics** to track conversion and drop‑off.

**Q: Can I convert a form to a survey (or the reverse)?**  
Converting types isn’t supported. Duplicate and rebuild in the other format to preserve data integrity.

**Q: Do manual payment methods appear on order forms?**  
If enabled in your payment settings, manual methods (like Cash on Delivery) can appear on applicable forms.
