In order to create a form, you need to create a Cognito Forms account through the plugin. Once you design your form, you can embed it onto a post or a page by using the Cognito Forms icon, the orange cog, that shows up on the editor toolbar. We'll automatically add the short code for you.
= Now that I've built a form, can I receive a notification every time my form is submitted? =
Yes – in fact, our forms default to sending an email notification to the email address belonging to the owner of the account.
You can further customize that email notification to be sent on behalf of your website domain, contain custom content, show details from the entry, or go to multiple email addresses.
