Adding links to forms

Learn how to add links to your forms to provide users with additional information.

Links are especially useful when referencing additional content, such as terms of service, FAQ, or supplementary pages. This way, you can provide important information without overloading the form

Where can links be added?

Links can be used wherever text with Markdown formatting is supported:

  1. In the Paragraph form element
  2. In the Note texts of form elements
  3. In the confirmation message displayed after the form is submitted
  4. In the Double opt-in confirmation message

How to add a link

  1. Write the desired text.
  2. Place your cursor where you want the link to appear.
  3. Click on the link icon in the formatting toolbar.
  4. A placeholder syntax will appear automatically: [Link text](https://example.com).
  5. Replace Link text with the desired display text (e.g., “Click here”).
  6. Replace https://example.com with the desired URL.

Adding additional attributes

You can add extra attributes to make your links more user-friendly. Here are two useful attributes:

  1. title
    This attribute displays a tooltip when users hover over the link.
  2. target="_blank"
    This attribute opens the link in a new tab so users don’t leave the current page.

Here’s how a complete link looks

Tips for link text

Use meaningful link text, such as 'Learn More' instead of 'Click here', so users know where the link will take them.

When are links useful in forms?

  1. Linking to terms of service or a privacy policy when requesting personal information
  2. Providing additional details after registration for an event
  3. Referring to help pages or FAQ in complex forms

By adding links, you can make your forms clearer and help users quickly find the right information.
