After installing the addons, it’s time to create a survey where you can show your audience one question at a time. If you need help, check out this tutorial on how to create a survey form in WordPress.
There are 400+ form templates available in the WPForms template library. This tutorial will use a ready-to-use survey form template available in the template library. To get a survey form template from the library, go to WPForms » Add New.
Now, give a name to your form so you can identify it easily later. Then, search for the Survey Form in the search bar where template categories are listed. Click the Use Template button to load it.
WPForms will now load the survey form template, which includes Likert scale fields.
The Likert scale is basically a table with rows and columns. If you click on the Likert Scale form field, you can edit the question you want to ask, the answer options, and the scale itself.
You can also add a Net Promoter Score to your survey form if you’d like to use that instead of Likert Scale or in addition to it. To do so, drag and drop the NPS form field from the Fancy Field section to the form builder screen.
As before, clicking the Net Promoter Score field will open its Field Options where you can edit the field label.
After you are done customizing the form, let’s turn this into a one-question-at-a-time survey.
Step 5: Enable Conversational Form Mode
The survey form we just created above will be set to the classic form layout by default. And to convert it into a survey that shows one question at a time, we need to enable conversational form mode.
To enable conversational form mode in your form, go to the Settings section of your WPForms form builder and then click Conversational Forms.
Now, click on the Enable Conversational Form Mode checkbox.
Once you enable conversational form mode, you can change the title of your conversational form, add a message, edit the permalink, insert a header logo, and choose a color scheme in this window.
In this section, you can also show or hide WPForms branding from your surveys.
When you’re done with these settings, go ahead and preview your form by clicking on the Preview Conversational Form button on the top-right of your window.
After you click the preview button, you can see how your conversational survey will appear on your site’s frontend.
If you’re satisfied with how everything looks, move on to publish the survey on your WordPress site.
Step 6: Publish Your Survey on Your WordPress Site
With WPForms, it is super easy to embed your survey into your site. To add your contact form to your WordPress site, click the Embed button on the form builder window.
Next, a dialog box will appear. Here, you have the option to add your form to a new page or an existing page.
Let’s add the survey to a new page. Click on Create New Page option and give a name to your new page. Click on Let’s Go to create a new page with the survey form that shows one question at a time.
Make sure that the URL slug of the page where you want to embed your survey matches the permalink of your conversational form.
Next, click on Publish button to take your survey online.
Congrats! You have published your survey that shows one question at a time on your website.
