Having trouble with forms. I want to have two forms on my page but after I add one form, I can’t add the other. Any ideas?

Hi Eric,


We currently only support having one form per page. We do plan on improving our forms feature in the near future. In the meantime you could add a drop down menu to the form to allow the visitor to choose whether they are a parent or a student, although I realize that this is not ideal.


Hi Eric - just to add to Justin’s reply. The three main work-around strategies are:


* Use two separate landing pages (one for students and one for parents) and and have separate incoming links for the two pages.


* Use one landing page to segment your visitors into two groups and link it to two subsequent pages (one for students and one for parents.)


* Use a dropdown menu to allow each visitor to qualify him/herself as a student or parent on the one form


I have sent you an email going into these options in a bit more detail.


Hope it helps!


Is there any update on being able to add more than one sign up form to a landing page, for example on a long form sales page to have the same opt-in/signup form appear multiple times?


Any update on when we can add more than one form per page? This would really be helpful for long form lead generation pages.


Hi David,


There is nothing currently in the works to allow multiple forms however we have noted that this has been asked for several times and will consider fitting it into our product development roadmap. There are technical reasons why this presents a bit of a challenge.


Presumably you would usually want the additional forms on the page to be the same and perform the same action after being filled out?


Justin


HI Justin,


This option still be very desirable )


In most cases i think it will be the same action.


This is almost a show-stopper! With today’s trend towards longer landing pages it is critical that multiple forms be allowed on a single page. Please elevate priority on this!


+1, would like this. I’m looking at working around by just using the custom html and adding my mailchimp form in as custom html.


But candidly, i’d much rather not have to do that and just pull the form widget back onto the page a second time.


Same fields, same form, just repeated lower down the page.


+1

Multiple opt-in forms on one page.


Hi, just wondering if others would like this too.

I’d like to be able to have multiple forms, to opt in, on one long “sales letter”, each form will be identical.

I want to be able to copy and past the form I’ve created (including design and colour specs), and put it 3 or 4 times in my long running landing page. Thanks


I am in shock that a tool as (otherwise) sophisticated as unbounce does NOT allow more than one form per page.


It’s like discovering that a Tesla can only go in reverse: a completely unexpected handicap / design flaw, given the relative awesomeness of the rest of the tool.


As others have said, current “best practices” for landing pages (which I thought you guys allegedly knew about) is to put SEVERAL sign up boxes on a page. At least two, maybe three. Maybe more for a very long sales page.


Thank goodness I found this out during my free trial. Anyone else know a tool that is JUST like unbounce but allows for this?


I guess I could try to figure out how to embed HTML from MailChimp but isn’t the whole point of unbounce that I NOT need to do HTML myself? 😦


Really it must be added as soon as possible.

3 month from last reply and no such feature yet.


Hi all!


Just wanted to chime in here with a possible workaround that might help you achieve the functionality you’re looking for.


While we still don’t have any immediate plans on adding multiple forms per page, what you can do is add anchor buttons into your page, then push the user back up to the form using a nice smooth scrolling effect.


Check out my ‘Smooth Scrolling Anchor’ demo page, and scroll all the way to the bottom to click the ‘SIGN UP NOW’ button:

This way you can have multiple CTA’s scattered throughout your page which will all point the user in the right direction. In my opinion, this is a much cleaner alternative than having multiple forms all over your page.


To achieve this functionality, you’ll just need to add a bit of script to your page. Full instructions can be found here: http://support.unbounce.com/entries/2…


I know this isn’t exactly what you’re asking for, but I’d love to hear if this solution helps solve the overall problem you’re all facing.


Hey Denis!

Check out my latest response below. Let me know if this functionality works for you!


Thank you. That idea fits my landing page


I’d really bump this one up as a big big feature. Landing pages now are long, and it’s useful to have CTA at the top and bottom. Will use the anchor trick for now, but I’m sure you know that asking users to click twice hurts conversion more than asking them to click just once.


Hey there Ñ just to shed some light on our roadmap: Our Page Builder team is wrapping up Mobile Responsive, with a public launch date currently set for November 17th. The plan is to spend some time in the 2 months that follow improving a bunch of the smaller features like this one, making background images stretch full screen, making lightboxes easier, etc… After we’ve polished up a number of these “low-hanging fruit” issues, the team will start working on a bigger feature for sharing content between pages (i.e. “snippets”)


no, you can’t


in your picture you like a funny comedian on a talk show 😃


Hey,


I agree, this feature needs to be implemented. We changed from leadpages to unbounced because we thought we were getting more flexibility in our landing page design.


How complex could it be to make it so you can copy and pasted the opt-in box to another section of the page?


Hi Christopher, 


I totally understand your frustration here, but for now we’ve opted to keep only one form per landing page. This might change in the future as we assess the need for multiple forms per page, but for the time being you could always try using smooth-scrolling anchors (demo, how-to) or even implement a sticky header so the form is always on screen (demo, how-to). I hope one of these solutions can help for now.


Wow. As an internet marketer for 9 years and someone who just built their landing page in Unbounce i am SHOCKED this feature is not here


I really don’t understand any justification for not allowing this


This one feature makes unbounce mostly irrelevant for all serious internet marketers who do LFLP (Long form landing pages)


How can you be “assessing the need”- Do you want me to bring the entire panel of internet marketers like Ryan Diess and the crew to chime in on this one? I promise you the response will be UNILATERAL.


Do you all realize how much this is hurting sales of Unbounce right now?


I can tell you as someone who was very excited 5 minutes ago and is now scrapping it, your losing alot of good sales and large scale adoption from serious internet marketers.


Had to write this post our of love and concern for this amazing tool you guys have


BUMP THIS UP!


Hey everyone Ñ I just want to chime in and let you all know that we have definitely bumped this issue up in priority. As you’ve all pointed out, the value is high for anyone doing long form pages, and while using a button with an anchor link works some of the time, it’s not always ideal for optimal conversion. There are a number of improvements to our Page Builder that we are consistently prioritizing, so at the moment this issue sits along side a few others such as:



  • Allowing you to republish your page from inside the page builder

  • Built-in support for lightboxes and overlays

  • Introducing some automated assistance to organize the mobile layout of your responsive pages

    At the moment, re-using the same form more than once on a page is in our top 10 list of things to improve in the page builder, and we’re working our way through that list as we speak. Hang in there, and thanks for the feedback, we really appreciate it!

Currently it is not possible to include two (or more) forms on Unbounce landing pages.


This is very useful if you are creating a longer lead generation landing page, and you want to capture emails both on top of the page (Above-the-fold) and also further down the page when your visitors start reading some of your content.


I suggest that we can insert multiple lead generation forms on a single Unbounce landing page.

Hello, unbounce team!

My LP is long and it’d be nice to set a few the same forms in different parts of the page. How can I do this?
