Configuring Basic Form Settings

creat form

Use this screen to configure basic form settings such as form name and type, form design, and the contact list (or lists) with which the form is associated.
Note: The fields that display in this screen depend on the selection you made in the previous
screen.

Form name and type

Choose a form type

Select the type of form you want to create.

Name this form

Enter a name for this form. This name identifies the form in Interspire Email Marketer.

Use double opt‐in confirmation

Select this if you want to send an email to contacts in which they must click a link to confirm that they want to subscribe to this list.
Deselect this if you do not want to send such an email.

Send a “thankyou” email


Select this if you want to send an email to contacts once they have successfully subscribed to the list.
Deselect this if you do not want to send such an email.

Email new contact details to you


Select this if you want to receive the information that a contact enters by email.
Deselect this if you do not want to receive such emails.


Note: You can use this feature to turn a website form into a contact form; a contact can use it to send you information or queries directly.
Usually, a contact who is already subscribed to a list and tries to subscribe again is directed to the error page However, since a contact may want to send information to you on more than one occasion, contacts who complete a form with this feature configured directed to the thank‐
you page, and not the error page.

Advanced options

This controls the text and background design of the form. Select a design from the list.

Use CAPTCHA form security

Select this if you want to use a CAPTCHA field in your form. CAPTCHA security presents the user with an image of numerals and text, arranged in
a manner unreadable by machines. The user must enter the numerals and text in a nearby field.
Use CAPTCHA if you want to prevent automated software signing up to your lists, which could degrade service for real contacts and make the
information in your contact lists unreliable.
Deselect this if you do not want to use CAPTCHA security.

 Note: CAPTCHA stands for “Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart”. A Turing test, named after mathematician and cryptographer Alan Turing, is a test intended to differentiate between an intelligent agent (such as a human), and an unintelligent agent (such as a piece of pre‐programmed software).
Ideally, only intelligent agents can pass a Turing test.
