# How do I add a form to a page or an activity / opportunity?

## Create forms. Custom application forms. Add forms. Contact form.

This article first explains what a form is and where you can find it, then we show you how to create a form, then how to add it to a page or an activity / opportunity. Go straight to:<https://help.deedmob.com/en/articles/5940045-as-a-platform-administrator-how-do-i-add-a-form-to-a-page-or-an-activity-opportunity?hsLang=en#h_38b560eaef>

- [How do I add a form to an activity / opportunity?](https://help.deedmob.com/en/how-do-i-add-a-form-to-a-page-or-an-activity-opportunity#activity)

Forms are added to a page for various reasons, for example as a contact form. They can also be added to activities / opportunities to gather more information about the applicant / volunteer.

All forms can be found on the platform's organization page (see the image below). This is also the only place where you can delete them. **So you can remove a form from an activity or from a page without losing it.** This is also where you can download the data of a form.

You can go straight to the overview of all forms from the administration panel in one go by clicking on 'Forms'.

### How do I create a form?

- Give a title to your form and determine whether the form can be completed by just anyone or only by logged in users (this affects which fields you can use, see below).
- Then select the contact person who should receive the answers. **NOTE:** if you leave this box empty, no one will be notified when the form has been completed. This does not apply to forms that are linked to an activity / opportunity, the answers are attached to normal applications.
- You can then choose to set up an message that will be shown to the user after completing the form. This message will not be shown if a form is linked to an activity / opportunity.

Now you can get started with the content. You can indicate per question whether this is a mandatory question and/or add extra instructions if necessary. 

**TIP:** You can change the order of the questions by clicking the up arrow (↑) or down arrow (↓).The easiest way to do this is when they are 'collapsed'. See below.

You can choose from 10 different types of questions:

- **Short answer** - open question with room for short answers
- **Long answer** - open question with room for long answers
- **Single choice** - select one answer from a list
- **Single choice (dropdown)** - select one answer from a list using a field that expands so that the questionnaire remains shorter / clearer when you have a question with many answers.
- **Date** - select a date
- **Checkbox** - check if applicable
- **Multiple choice** - select multiple answers from a simple list
- **Multiple choice tiles** - select multiple answers using tiles that provide space for adding an icon and a description if the choices could use some explanation
- **Location** - this field is linked to our map provider's database which allows you to search and add your location
- **File upload\*** - let someone upload a file of max. 5MB; there is space to add text with, for example, a link to a form

\* This is due to only possible if the form can only be used by logged in users for security reasons. '*Allow non-logged in users to view and submit this form'* should therefore not be checked.

**TIP:** Explain your form by adding 'Content sections'. These are rich text fields that allow for basic styling and to which you can also add images and/or videos from Youtube or Vimeo.
