Short guides for the common jobs: getting started, multi-step forms, conditional logic, deliverability, spam protection, webhooks, and email marketing integrations.
Builder
- Place form fields side by side Use multi-column form layout for name rows and compact contact forms that still stack on mobile.
- Split long forms into multi-step pages Turn a long WordPress form into steps with Next, Back, and a progress bar — one submission at the end, same inbox and automations.
- Show or hide form fields with conditional logic Reveal WordPress form fields only when earlier answers match — free Show only when… rules with Match all / Match any, server-side cleanup of hidden values.
- Accept file uploads on WordPress forms Add a file upload field, set allowed extensions and max size, and keep uploads private under uploads/sobiforms/.
Delivery
- Set up SMTP for reliable WordPress form emails Stop losing form notification emails to spam folders. Route Sobi Forms mail through your SMTP server.
- Customize admin and visitor email notifications Edit subject and HTML body for admin notifications and visitor confirmations—with placeholders like {{field.email}} and {{all_fields}}.
Getting started
- Create your first form Install Sobi Forms, build a contact form, and start collecting submissions in the inbox.
- Embed a form on your site Add a Sobi Forms contact form with a shortcode or the Gutenberg block.
- Export and import forms between sites Move a form’s fields and layout from one WordPress site to another as a JSON file—without rebuilding the form by hand.
- Customize form CSS Style Sobi Forms on the front end with CSS variables, your theme stylesheet, or a full custom sheet—without breaking AJAX submit.
- Pause, close, or limit a form Control when a Sobi Forms form accepts submissions—pause now, auto-close at a date, or stop after N entries.
