Big news from Unbounce HQ! :spinbounce:

We’re excited to announce that in the coming weeks, you’ll be able to set your landing pages and overlay forms horizontally natively within the Unbounce app! No more workarounds or custom scripts, just drag, drop and convert!

⚠️ However, there’s some important information that goes along with this. Please read on…

Although native horizontal forms will be starting to roll out November 14, and should be available to everyone by November 30th, we wanted to give you a heads-up as we’ve had to make a few changes to how our forms are built.

If you’ve added custom code that targets the forms on your pages or overlays, there is a possibility that your forms may be adversely affected by this release (i.e. your forms may no longer look or function as before).

PLEASE NOTE: Our new form functionality will only take effect, possibly compromising your custom code, if you re-publish your landing page or overlay. If your page or overlay is currently published and remains that way, it will continue to function as normal. If you’d like further clarification on whether your scripts will be effected, comment on this thread and we’ll sort you out.

If you haven’t created any custom code targeting forms, feel free to ignore this warning and just bask in the exciting glow of new features coming to our page builder! 🎉

For those of you who have created custom scripts, there’s more information here into the changes we’ve made on the forms. We hope this will help you in making any applicable changes needed to your scripts.

If you have any questions, hit reply on this post and we’ll be happy to provide more information! 👇

Hi
I cannot see the ability to build horizontal forms on our landing pages. Do i have to use a certain template or activate anything in order to use them?

Thanks
Chris

We’re in the same boat as Chris. Was the horizontal form feature not rolled out on Nov 14th?

Hey @Chris_Collis and @BrunoLifts!

Thanks for reaching out (and apologies for the delay in my response!)

We did a slow release of the horizontal forms in the builder. The process began on November 14 and will be available to everybody on November 30th.

If this is something you’d like to be enabled sooner than the listed dates, please send me a DM and I’ll get you set up. Sorry for any confusion!

Hi

were using multi part forms using a script the Unbounce team recommended
(but not an unbounce product), we did have some issues the other day but
seems ok now. Can we continue to use them?

Hey Sean!

If the problem has resolved itself I would assume that you’re in the clear, however, to be sure, would you mind telling me which workaround you’ve implemented on your page?

I’ll keep an eye out for your response 🙂

Hi, in the editor my forms are hosed. I cannot republish my pages with because the form field widths have all been automatically adjusted somehow and I cannot get them back to the right width. I need some help asap and cannot get anyone on phone or chat.

Hey Ken!

I’m going to send you a direct message because I’ll need a bit more information in regards to which page this is effecting.

I’ll also be able to find out if this is something that our Support team is more fit to handle. I’ve notified to team to keep a heads up for your message, however they take tickets in a first-come-first-serve basis.

Hang tight!
