I have managed to make one work - sort of - but my problem in getting a button that triggers it. The first pic shows what it looks like in Site Designer, the second what it looks like on the website (the button no longer exists!) and lastly, the pop up that happens when I click on that very faint Contact Me on the website


yep similar when using a reveal to hold the form using S-Drive

looks terrible and not a good visual experience for users

looks great when hosted with my hosting service

You will have to edit the CSS in Webform Builder

Good luck with that

Can you share a link to your form?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

I don't see a link on your form.

That is just the form, of course. I am just trying to figure out how to make a button that will make this form (made in Webform Designer) pop up on the page. Using the instructions from Webform Designer, I can put a link on my page (see Button Problem 2 pic) where, as you can see, it can hardly be seen. I was hoping to make it pop up using a Contact Me button like the others in that line (See Button Problem 1 pic)

"made in Webform Designer"

I'm confused web form builder or web form designer?

The main issue is that by using web form builder and publishing it to the forms section on your s-drive is that it is a separate entity to site designer,

If you want a form to pip up as in my previous demo the that form is made with web form builder but is then put into site designer itself not hosted separately.

The demo shows it working and is easy to do using a reveal component, by hosting the form on s-drive it makes the whole thing almost impossible without so much messing and mucking about and a huge amount of time and effort
