Tips » Embed a form in your webjam using Wufoo

Wufoo is an internet application that allows anyone to create an attractive form. You don’t need to know CSS or HTML, it's free to sign up and you can easily embed the form in to your network. Whether you wanted to create a questionnaire, petition or simply gather more information from your visitors, Wufoo is probably the best place to start.

Creating your form

1. First, you'll need to sign up with Wufoo. There are several paid-for options, but the basic one is free.

2. Once you're registered, you can create a form for pretty much anything (get some ideas here) by dragging and dropping fields into place. The font, backgrounds and buttons on your form can be customised too, if you like.

3. Alternatively check out Wufoo's form gallery for form templates - you can choose from an Employment Application, Consumer Demographic Survey, Online Petition and more.

4. Once you've made your form you'll need to download the embed code:

i) Go to the Form Manager

ii) Find your form in the list and click on the Code icon

iii) Click on Embed Form Code and copy the code - the JavaScript one works best on Webjam.

Embedding your form

Once you have the HTML code of your form, you'll need to insert this into a Free HTML module on your site:

1. Go to your site and click on the Modules tab.

2. Click on the My Content tab, find the Free HTML box and add it to your site.

3. Once the Free HTML box is on your site, click the Edit button. Paste the embed code from Wufoo into the box and click save.

The form should now be embedded in your network, and look a bit like this:
