Vev creates static websites, meaning that data submissions cannot be stored or processed through Vev's native elements. If you require forms to collect submissions for analysis, you'll need to utilize a third-party service provider. With our Embed Anything component, you can seamlessly integrate external forms into your Vev project. Learn how to use this feature and embed various form service providers below.

Supported Form Providers

Vev supports embedding forms from a variety of third-party services. You can easily integrate forms from the following popular providers:

Embedding Other Form Providers

You are not limited to the built-in integrations. You can embed any external form provider by following these steps:

  1. Go to your preferred form provider's platform.

  2. Locate and copy the embed code for your form (often found in the "Share" or "Publish" settings).

  3. In your Vev project, add the Embed Anything component.

  4. Paste the embed code into the component.

  5. Click Preview to confirm the form is displaying correctly.

Note: Once you embed your code in the Embed Anything component, please click Preview to see your form in action!

Troubleshooting Embedded Forms in Vev

If your form is not displaying or functioning correctly, try the following:

  • Check the embed code: Ensure the code is complete and not altered.

  • Confirm permissions: Some providers require you to enable embedding or make the form public.

  • Test responsiveness: View the page on different devices and browsers to check compatibility.

  • Review documentation: Each platform (e.g., Google Forms, HubSpot) may have specific embedding requirements. Review their help articles for additional guidance.

Limitations of Embedding Forms in Vev

While embedding external forms offers flexibility, there are a few key limitations to be aware of:

  • Limited design customization: You cannot style or modify the form’s appearance directly within Vev. To change the form’s design, you must do so using the form provider’s own platform.

  • No native data handling: Vev does not store or process form submissions. All submitted data is handled by the external form service.
