1. What is the Comment Widget?
With our website maker you can easily ad and customize forms that can be used to gather information and send you an email. This type of form is often used for feedback or for customer orders.

To add a form in the Toolbar click 'Insert" -->.  This will add a default feedback form to your page. Alternatively, if you open the File Manager you can use the Forms folder to select from a set of pre-made forms.

Once your form has been added to your page, you can double click it to start customising it.  You can click on any of the form fields to edit them. When a field is selected it is highlighted in yellow. Simply select the text and type something new to change or edit it.  If you want to change the properties of the selected field, then use the Editor and select the Field tab. There you can change the width of the field, and the number of input lines. You can also move its position on the form up and down to reorder your fields.

To add a new field, click the Field tab, and then Ad a New Field.  If a field is already selected, click Back on the Field tab to get back to this option.  Once a new field is added it is edited in the normal way.

Finally, the Style tab allows you to customize the look and feel of your form, and change all the colour settings.  Click Apply once you have made your changes for the form to be updated.

You can add as many fields as you like to a form, and make it unique to your needs.
