Each list you create on Apifon comes by default with its List-manage Forms. In this article, we will guide you through how to edit your Forms.

Task Roadmap

To get started, click "Subscribers," then "Lists" from the Dashboard, and select the list in which you want to create a Form. Then, select "Forms" -> "Forms Builder".

The available forms are the below:

A. Sign up
Gain new subscribers and collect more data for your list.

1. 1. Signup Form
   2. Thank you Page

B. Update Profile

1. 1. Update Profile Form
   2. Thank you Page

   2. Thank you Page

D. Existing Subscribers
These messages are sent when an existing subscriber signs up again into your list.

   2. Email already registered message

A.a. Sign up

To edit a signup form, follow the steps below:

1. 1. Select "Forms" and then "Form Builder".
   2. Select“Signup Form”. 
      
      
   3. You can have both channels in Sign Up From, mobile and email, you can define at least one as required and insert new information fields from the Drag & Drop builder to the right.

Note: Within the Sign-Up Form at least one of the destinations should always be enabled and by default be required.

Below there are all the possible combinations and states:

• • • • • Mobile- Inactive
          Email- Active Disabled and the “Make Required” field, selected disable
        • Mobile- Active and the “Make Required” field, selected enabled
          Email- Active and the “Make Required” field, selected enabled
        • Mobile- Active and the “Make Required” field, unselected
          Email- Active and the “Make Required” field, selected disabled

d. Once you have finished editing the form, save your changes by clicking "Save" and then "Publish".

 

• • When the subscriber does not exist
    When a subscriber who does not exist in the list signs up through the Sign-Up Form, a subscriber sees the Thank you Page and he is added to the list.
  • When the subscriber already exists
    • If a subscriber adds a mobile destination within the Sign-Up Form that already exists, then once he clicks on “Submit”  he gets a validation error that this mobile already exists.
    • On the other hand, when an existing email destination is added the subscriber gets a validation error that this email already exists, and "Update your details".
    • When a subscriber clicks on the "Update Details" link, an Already registered Page is shown.
    • An email is sent stating that he has already been registered.

Notes: You can share the Signup Form on your social media or wherever you like. To do so, just open the Form and copy-paste its URL.
For your website, we suggest using our Embedded Forms feature.
