<\/p>\n

Creating custom forms in WordPress is an easy and quick process with WPForms. In our getting started with WPForms<\/a> article, we noted that older versions of BoldGrid still support Ninja Forms, but if you’d like to use WPForms<\/a> instead, all you need to do is reinstall the BoldGrid plugin. You can download that from the BoldGrid website.<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/iframe><\/p>\nIn this article, we will cover how you can create a custom form with WPForms<\/strong>. WPForms comes with a variety of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/boldgrid-wpforms-plugin-product-guide\/getting-started-with-wpforms\/\">available forms<\/a> that you can choose from, but you have the option of creating a custom form specific to your needs.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-to-create-a-custom-form\">How to Create a Custom Form<\/h2>\nWe will be using the WPForms interface to create our form. You will be redirected automatically. For your convenience, WPForms includes some templates to start you off quickly. For this guide, we will be using a blank form instead of a WPForms template.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<ol class=\"article_list\">\n<li>Under WPForms<\/em> click Add New<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-01.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9204\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-01.png\" alt=\"Click Add New\" width=\"224\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-01.png 224w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-01-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-01-48x48.png 48w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-01-181x180.png 181w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Enter a Form Name<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-02.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9206\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-02.png\" alt=\"Enter form name\" width=\"625\" height=\"309\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-02.png 625w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-02-300x148.png 300w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-02-250x124.png 250w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-02-550x272.png 550w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-02-364x180.png 364w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-02-607x300.png 607w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Under Select a Template<\/em>, click Blank Form<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-03.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9209\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-03.png\" alt=\"Select a blank form template\" width=\"500\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-03.png 500w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-03-300x240.png 300w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-03-250x200.png 250w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-03-225x180.png 225w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-03-375x300.png 375w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Choose a field under Standard Fields<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-04.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9211\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-04.png\" alt=\"Select fields\" width=\"375\" height=\"321\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-04.png 375w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-04-300x257.png 300w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-04-250x214.png 250w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-04-210x180.png 210w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/9161_bg-04-350x300.png 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Click Save<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\nYou may select additional fields as well.
