Adding your own customizable form within the SiteBuilder is easy with the Form Widget. The flexibility of this widget enables you to to create custom line items, to make gathering information and communicating with customers a valuable experience.

Upon dragging and dropping the Form Widget into SiteBuilder, users have the option to choose a pre-made contact form or a blank one to customize yourself. Once the form is completed, the information submitted will be sent directly to your email. By default, the email on file will be that of your MyGlow login, but updating this email address address can be done by simply by clicking on the "Settings" link in your Form Widget.
    
Forms have the ability to include CAPTCHAs, to combat blank form submissions and spam. A CAPTCHA is a type of challenge-response test in an attempt to ensure that the response is generated by a person. A common type of CAPTCHA requires the user to type letters or digits from a distorted image that appears on the screen. The CAPTCHA is added to your form automatically, but you can remove it easily in the "Edit" menu.
