You'll build a reusable form, add it to a page, and send a test response. A form is saved separately from its page, so the same form can be used in several places.

## Build the form

1. Open **Forms** and choose **Create new Form**. Enter a **Title** that your team will recognize, such as Contact enquiry.
2. Select **Add Field** and choose the kind of question you need.

3. Enter the field's **Label**. This is the question visitors see. Add a **Placeholder** if an example would help. Tick **Required** only when you need an answer before the form can be sent.

4. Add the remaining questions. Keep the form short. For choices, use clear option labels. Leave each question's **ID (lowercase, uppercase, numbers, no special characters)** unchanged after people start submitting answers. It identifies the answer in stored responses and exports.
5. Set **Submit Button Title**, for example Send enquiry.
6. Choose **Confirmation Type**. **Message** shows a thank-you message; **Redirect** sends the visitor to another page or address. Write a useful **Confirmation Message** or choose the redirect destination.
7. Select **Save**. Updating a saved form can affect every page using it.

| Field or choice        | What it does                                             | Tip                                                               |
| ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Text**               | A short written answer.                                  | Use it for a name or a short question.                            |
| **Email**              | An email address.                                        | Use this type when you need to reply to the visitor.              |
| **Textarea**           | A longer written answer.                                 | Use it for an enquiry message.                                    |
| **Select** / **Radio** | A choice from listed options.                            | Use familiar words and avoid overlapping choices.                 |
| **Checkbox**           | A tick-box answer.                                       | Make its meaning clear without relying on the visitor ticking it. |
| **Date** / **Number**  | A date or numeric answer.                                | Explain the expected information in the label.                    |
| **File Upload**        | Lets visitors attach a file when enabled.                | Ask your agency about allowed files and size limits.              |
| **Note**               | Explanatory text, rather than a question.                | Use it for instructions or a privacy-policy link.                 |
| **Required**           | Prevents sending the form with that question unanswered. | Ask only for information you need.                                |
| **Advanced Settings**  | Holds additional options for the selected field.         | Leave unfamiliar options as set by your agency.                   |

## Add it to a page

1. Open the page in **Pages** and place the cursor where the form should appear in **Content**.
2. Open the blocks menu at the left of the toolbar and choose **Form**.
3. In **Select a form**, choose the form you saved.

4. Use **Publish changes** when the page is ready. Open the public page and fill in a test answer.

5. Send the test. Check the confirmation and find the response in **Form Submissions**. If notification emails are set up, also check their destination inbox.

## Check afterwards

Check every question, required-field message and confirmation. Try the page on a phone. Confirm that the response appears in [submissions](https://docs.systhema.app/hu/editor-guide/forms/submissions.md); a visible form alone does not prove that responses reach you.
