How to Create a Contact Form in GoHighLevel
If you use platforms like ClickUp to organize your operations, you will appreciate how easily you can build and manage contact forms in GoHighLevel. This guide walks you through every step of creating, styling, and publishing a form so you can start capturing leads and inquiries immediately.
Access the GoHighLevel Form Builder
To begin, you must access the form builder inside your account. The form builder is where you will create, edit, and manage all of your contact forms.
-
Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
-
From the left-hand menu, click Sites.
-
Select Forms and then choose Builder.
You will now see the main interface where you can create new forms or edit existing ones for your GoHighLevel funnels, websites, and other assets.
Create a New Contact Form in GoHighLevel
Once you are in the builder area, you can create a brand-new contact form that will collect details from your visitors and leads.
-
In the Forms section, click the + New Form button.
-
A fresh, blank form layout will appear in the main canvas of the GoHighLevel form builder.
At this point, you have an empty structure that you can start customizing with different fields and layouts.
Add and Arrange Fields in Your GoHighLevel Form
The next step is to add form fields so you can collect the information you need from contacts.
Use the GoHighLevel Form Field Panel
On the right side of the builder, you will see the form fields panel. From here you can drag and drop different field types directly onto your form.
Common fields you can add include:
-
Full Name
-
Email
-
Phone
-
Message or Comments
To add fields in GoHighLevel:
-
Click and hold a field from the right-side panel.
-
Drag it into the form canvas on the left.
-
Drop it where you want it to appear.
You can also reorder the fields at any time by dragging them up or down inside the form layout.
Edit Individual Fields in GoHighLevel
Each field has its own settings. You can customize labels, placeholders, and required options to match your data collection goals.
-
Click on a field inside the form canvas.
-
A settings panel will open where you can edit:
-
Field label (what the user sees)
-
Placeholder text (the hint inside the box)
-
Whether the field is required
-
These controls help you make your GoHighLevel forms clear and easy to complete.
Apply Preset Layouts in GoHighLevel
If you prefer a faster setup, you can use prebuilt form templates rather than building from scratch.
Choose a GoHighLevel Form Preset
-
At the top of the builder, click the Presets option.
-
Browse the available preset layouts.
-
Select a preset that matches the type of contact form you need.
When you select a preset, GoHighLevel automatically loads a complete structure with fields and formatting. You can still edit or remove individual fields after applying a preset.
Style and Customize Your GoHighLevel Form
Design is an important part of user experience. You can adjust the styling of the form so it matches your brand and website design.
Adjust Styles from the GoHighLevel Builder
-
Click anywhere on the form background or on the form container.
-
Use the style options available in the right-side panel. Typical style options include:
-
Font type and size
-
Colors for text, borders, and buttons
-
Padding and spacing between fields
-
Use simple, clean styles so your GoHighLevel form is easy to read and encouraging for visitors to complete.
Configure Additional GoHighLevel Form Options
Beyond appearance and basic fields, there are additional settings that control how your form behaves, especially when it is used inside funnels.
Set Funnel-Specific Options in GoHighLevel
Forms can power automations, follow-ups, and tracking. To adjust key options:
-
In the builder, open the settings connected to your form (such as funnel or integration settings if available in your account).
-
Confirm the form is properly connected to the funnel step or page where it will be displayed.
-
Review any available options (like confirmation behavior or action after submission) and set them according to your workflow.
These options help ensure your GoHighLevel form interacts correctly with your pipeline, tagging, and follow-up automations.
Save and Publish Your GoHighLevel Form
After adding fields and customizing design, you need to save your work and publish the form so it can be used on live pages.
Save Your Form in GoHighLevel
-
In the top right corner of the builder, click the Save button.
-
Wait for the confirmation that your form has been saved successfully.
Saving ensures that all your structure and styling changes are stored in your GoHighLevel account.
Embed Your GoHighLevel Form on a Page
Once saved, you can place the form on funnels, websites, or other pages.
-
Go to the area where you manage your pages or funnels inside GoHighLevel.
-
Select the page where the form should appear.
-
Add a form element or widget to the page.
-
Choose the contact form you just created from the list of available forms.
Publish or update the page so visitors can start submitting information through your new form.
Troubleshooting and Next Steps with GoHighLevel Forms
If your form is not showing or not capturing data correctly, check the following:
-
Confirm the correct form is selected on the page.
-
Verify that the form has been saved in the builder.
-
Ensure the page or funnel step has been published or updated.
