Do you want to create a Divi contact form using WPForms?

The popular Divi builder from Elegant themes makes building a website super easy for everyone to do.

Combined with the power of WPForms, beautiful and high-converting websites are popping up from people who never thought they’d be any good with the technical side of small business.

So in this post, we’ve laid out each step you can take in order to make a Divi contact form on your WordPress website (using WPForms).

How to Create a Divi Contact Form

The Divi theme has a built-in form module you can use to collect email addresses, but to create truly professional forms that you can customize, you’ll want to add a contact form to your site that you’ve built with WPForms.

Since it’s such a popular pair (Divi+WPForms) there’s even a Divi module integration with WPForms.

So if you’ve been asking yourself how do I set up a contact form in Divi, these steps have you covered:

Step 1: Install the WPForms Plugin

The first thing you’ll want to do is install the WPForms plugin.

It’s pretty easy, but if you need any help with this part, check out this great tutorial on how to install a WordPress plugin or reach out to us.

Once WPForms is installed, click on the activate button.

Next up, you’ll create your form.

Step 2: Create Your Contact Form

Now, make a simple WordPress contact form so we have a form to put on your contact us page with Divi.

Also, remember when you’re setting up your form notifications that WordPress is pretty notorious for sending notifications that never get delivered.

And because of this, it’s always best practice to fix this issue for your site, so check out this tutorial on how to fix Divi not sending email using the WP Mail SMTP plugin.

Wondering where does the Divi contact form go? If you’re using a paid WPForms plan, your entries are stored in the WordPress database.

So now that your form’s ready, let’s use the Divi Builder to embed it onto a page.

Step 3: Open the Divi Builder

Once you create your new Contact Page (or whichever page you want your contact form on), you’ll want to click on the Edit With The Divi Builder button to launch the Divi WordPress page creator.

If it’s an existing page, it might look a tad different. If so, simply click on the Use Divi Builder to launch it.

Once the builder is open, you’ll be asked about your page’s layout.

Step 4: Pick Your Divi Contact Form Page Layout

With Divi, you can build a page from scratch, pick a pre-made layout, or clone an existing page.

For this tutorial, we’ll build our page from scratch.

So click on the Start Building button to open the Divi page.

Next, you’ll see a blank page appear. This is your space to create! And, it’s how you’ll decide how you want your Divi page to look and where you want your WPForms contact form to be.

You’ll see a popup that asks which kind of layout (using rows) you’d like to add to your Divi page.

For this post, let’s pick the 1st choice. This will make the contact form be the only ‘object’ that goes into that row, so it gets lots of attention and people fill it out.

Go ahead and select the first option (the single row) for your rows.

Now, you’ll be invited to insert a module. Let’s get your awesome WPForms form in there next.

Step 4: Insert WPForms Divi Module

This step is extra easy because WPForms has its very own Divi integration and a contact form module!

To add it, search for WPForms in the search box and then select the module that appears.

Once the module has been added, the module settings will appear.

This area lets you:

  • Select which form you want to use
  • Turn on settings that show the form title
  • Turn on settings that show the form description

So when you’re ready, go ahead and pick your form from the dropdown under Form.

Once you select your form, it will be automatically embedded into that Divi page.

Now’s a good time to save your form’s progress by clicking on the green checkmark button.

And within the Design and Advanced tabs of Divi, there’s plenty of extra Divi customization to explore.

Step 5: Publish Your Divi Contact Form

Nice job, your contact form is embedded and ready. Now, you can publish it in the same way you publish any page in Divi.

Click on the 3 dots at the bottom of the page builder to display some additional Divi settings.

Next, select the Publish button to see it live.

  1. My 1st experience combining WPForms with Divi is disappointing. I can’t style the text size or color, can’t make the fields have rounded corners, nor control the color of the fields. I’ll try again tomorrow, but so far it doesn’t meet my expectations for design control.

    1. Hi Ed! I apologize for any misunderstanding here. The Divi Module is meant to ensure that WPForms forms can be embedded on sites built with Divi without issue. It does not have the ability to grant Divi’s styling features to be applied to the embedded forms.

      To style your forms, please refer to our guide here: https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-style-wpforms-with-custom-css-beginners-guide/

      I hope that this helps! If you have any further questions about this, please contact us if you have an active subscription. If you do not, don’t hesitate to drop us some questions in our support forums.

  2. Hi, I’m an administrator of a charity website and not the host, but, I am having problems receiving empty Contact Us emails repeatedly daily. I know that the WordPress theme is ‘active DIVI’ and the empty email received displays as:Email enquiry from the Canal Trust Website:

    Name: %%Name%%
    Email: %%Email%%

    Message: %%Message%%

    This looks the form configuration settings.
    Is our website just being HIT by BOTS or is there anything I can do to stop these nuisance emails please?
    Your help and advice is very much appreciated.

  3. Hello, is there a way to use WP Forms set up in a product template in themes where people can ask for more info on a product then you get notified of what product they are currently clicked on? At the moment it just send the same message from whatever product they send it from?

    Many thanks

    1. Hi Vernon,

      We do not have an exact feature that you are looking for. But based on selections in the form, you can absolutely set the notifications conditionally. We have a great tutorial on how to set this up here.

      Hope this helps!
