I highly recommend checking out the post <span class=”f-author-name”>RJungwirth</span> shared. I personally really love FormSubmit because it’s unlimited, but there are a number of other options with free tiers, if you simply want to embed a static HTML form that POSTs info elsewhere: https://css-tricks.com/a-comparison-of-static-form-providers/
I’ve been using FormSubmit because it sends the responses to your email, and they have an option to use a special code so that your email isn’t exposed in the code.
Here’s what I’ve been doing:
- Create a new WYSIWYG post where the form will live (and , optionally, create a separate thank-you page)
- Edit the HTML of the post
- Paste in the code that’s in the link here: https://formsubmit.co/live-demo
- In this line, change the “you@email.com” for the email you would like to use (later, you’ll receive a code to replace this with so that you don’t have to use your email):
<form target="_blank" action="https://formsubmit.co/your@email.com" method="POST">
Once you’ve published your site to your server, fill out the form and hit send. You’ll receive instructions to get you started.
Most of the other static options work like this. For FormSubmit, I would also recommend checking their documentation to see how to redirect submissions to a thank-you page using “_next”.
