How to add Form Builder to a WordPress website

Embed Form Builder on WordPress

01

Create a Form Builder plugin for WordPress on Common Ninja

First, create a WordPress Form Builder plugin on Common Ninja. On the plugins catalog, find the Form Builder and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Form Builder plugin

When you're done creating the Form Builder plugin, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the Form Builder Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Form Builder plugin to your WordPress website, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the plugin embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your WordPress website.

04

Paste the code to your WordPress website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your WordPress website editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the WordPress’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Form Builder Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Form Builder plugin on your WordPress website.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Form Builder plugin on your WordPress plugin. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your WordPress website’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Form Builder plugin to your WordPress website. You can do this by putting it straight into your WordPress website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Form Builder widget when you need custom data collection that does not fit into a simple contact form or template. It lets you design forms for surveys, lead capture, registrations, internal requests, and more, all within a single flexible interface. You can add various field types, control layout, and adjust labels to match your language and processes. This is helpful for growing businesses that refine their workflows over time and want a tool that adapts without requiring development work. By centralizing form creation in one place, you keep your site consistent, gather cleaner data, and respond faster when new information needs appear in marketing, operations, or support.
