Create New Form Action

A form action is a necessary component in the form creation process; every website form must contain one. The action tells the form what to do and who to notify once it is submitted, among other things.

Access:  Components>Form Manager>Action Handler.

  • Click Create New Action.
  • Type in the Name of your action. Make this the same as the form's name.
  • Select Add & Configure (the Code field generates automatically).
  • Click the Action tab.
  • In the Email Address(es) field, enter the address(es) of the individual(s) who will receive notification emails once the form is submitted. Be sure to separate multiple addresses by a comma, or place them on separate lines.
  • Choose the Layouts tab.
  • Select the Add A Layout button.
  • From the Layout drop-down, select the form's name.
  • Click Save, then Save once more.

These are the basic requirements of a form action. For additional information on advanced options the handler offers, see: Web Form Action. For information on placing a form on a web page, see Adding a Form to a Web Page.
