Adding a Form to Carrd

Carrd one-pagers can submit to any form backend from an Embed element, so a Formward-powered contact form works on every Carrd plan that allows embeds.

  1. 01Create your form in Formward

    Sign up at formward.eu and create a new form. Copy the endpoint URL; it looks like https://forms.formward.eu/f/your-form-id.

  2. 02Add an Embed element in Carrd

    In the Carrd editor, add an Embed element (Type: Code) where the form should appear, and paste the HTML below. Replace the action URL with your own endpoint. The inline styles inherit Carrd's font so the form blends in; adjust colours to match your design.

    <form action="https://forms.formward.eu/f/your-form-id" method="POST" style="display:flex;flex-direction:column;gap:12px;font-family:inherit;text-align:left">
      <input type="text"  name="name"    placeholder="Your name"     required style="padding:10px;border:1px solid #ccc;border-radius:6px" />
      <input type="email" name="email"   placeholder="Email address" required style="padding:10px;border:1px solid #ccc;border-radius:6px" />
      <textarea           name="message" placeholder="Message"       required rows="4" style="padding:10px;border:1px solid #ccc;border-radius:6px;resize:vertical"></textarea>
      <!-- honeypot: keep hidden -->
      <input type="text" name="_gotcha" style="display:none" tabindex="-1" autocomplete="off" />
      <button type="submit" style="padding:10px 20px;background:#000;color:#fff;border:none;border-radius:6px;cursor:pointer">Send</button>
    </form>
  3. 03Set a redirect back to your page

    By default the visitor lands on Formward's neutral thanks page after submitting. To send them back to your Carrd page instead, set a redirect URL in the form's settings in Formward, for example https://yourname.carrd.co/#thanks pointing at a section of your page.

  4. 04Publish and test

    Publish the Carrd site and send a test submission. It appears in your Formward dashboard and in your notification email. Spam filtering and the honeypot are active immediately; nothing else needs configuring.
