Building a form inside the editor allows you to continue creating the form and site together without navigating away or losing your place. Note:Most of the available forms in the Studio Editor are the new Wix Forms. However, if you prefer using the old Wix Forms, you can add the Order or Donate form presets.To create a form:
Click Add Elements  on the left side of the editor. Click Contact & Forms. Click Create New Form and drag the form element onto the page. You can also select a form from the pre-installed templates including Contact, Subscribe and Order forms. Click the form in the Editor and click Edit Form to open the form builder.Note about Order forms:Order forms were built using the previous version of Wix Forms, so the options to customize form fields are different. If you are creating an order form, follow these instructions about how to customize form fields.
In the form builder, click the Edit icon  at the top left to name the form. This form name is only visible internally to help you identify it. Choose fields for the form under Add form fields. The types of fields include:
    
Contact fields: Add fields that collect and store personal data in Wix Contacts. General fields: Add elements like multi choice, checkboxes, drop-downs, and answer boxes. Date fields: Add time and date fields for appointment scheduling or time sensitive enquiries.  Layout elements: Add a header or text element to organize the form or further explain a field.  Note:The new Wix Forms do not have a CAPTCHA field as all forms are already integrated with spam filters. Learn more about spam filters in the FAQ section of this article.

Updating the field settings. Making it a required field. Deleting a field. Resizing the field to make a form with multiple columns. Learn how to add columns to a form in the FAQ section of this article.   
(Optional) Click Rules or Pages at the left to add conditional rules or multiple pages to the form:
    
Rules: Add a conditional rule to the form. Rules improve the way you collect information based on responses. A visitor's response to one field can determine if another field is shown, hidden, required, or optional. For example, add a rule such as, 'If a visitor chooses Option A in Question 1, then Question 2 is hidden. But if they choose Option B, Question 2 is visible.' Pages: Create multiple pages for the form. This keeps questions and information organized.
Tip:  If you have multiple pages, make sure you add a Submit field to each page so visitors can navigate through the pages by clicking 'Next.'   Click Save at the top right.Important:Make sure you add a Submit field to the bottom of the form. If you don't have a submit button, visitors have no way to send the form.
