Custom Subject

Overview

You can customize the subject line of your notification emails. There are two ways to set up the email subject: with a pre-defined subject or a user-generated subject.

Pre-defined Subject

To use a pre-defined subject line, add a hidden input field with the name "subject" and the desired subject line as the value.

Example Code for Pre-defined Subject

<input type="hidden" name="subject" value="New Submission from FormsLite.io">

User-Generated Subject

To allow the user to specify the subject line, use a text input field with the name "subject".

Example Code for User-Generated Subject

<input type="text" name="subject">

Full Example with Both Options

Pre-defined Subject

<form action="https://api.formslite.io/submission" method="POST">
    <input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="ACCESS_KEY">
    <input type="hidden" name="subject" value="New submission on your site">
    <input type="text" name="name" required>
    <input type="email" name="email" required>
    <button type="submit">Submit Form</button>
</form>

User-Generated Subject

<form action="https://api.formslite.io/submission" method="POST">
    <input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="ACCESS_KEY">
    <input type="text" name="subject">
    <input type="text" name="name" required>
    <input type="email" name="email" required>
    <button type="submit">Submit Form</button>
</form>

Ensure the "name" attribute is set to "subject" to properly configure the email subject line in the notification emails.
