Website URL Input Field in Fluent Forms
The Website URL field allows users to enter the URL of any website. It is available under the General Fields section within the Form editor. Adding a Website URL input field in your forms is easy with Fluent Forms.
- To add this field to your form, drag and drop the field from the available input fields.
- To enable customization, click on the edit icon you get when hovering over the field. Or click on the Input Customization tab in the right sidebar when selecting the field.
In the Input Customization section, you can customize the Website URL input field in the following ways. In this section, you will find 2 portions:
- Basic Options
- Advanced Options
Basic Options
On the right side of the tab, there are some important Basic options which are given below:
- Element Label: This is the text that users will see on the form for the Website URL input field. You can put any text here that helps to understand the purpose of that field.
- Label Placement: Determine the placement of the label that you set previously concerning the input field. The available options are Top, Left, Right, and Default. All of those are self-explanatory except the Default. What it means is that it will represent your global label placement settings.
- Admin Field Label: If you want to show a different label for your admin users when they view the form submissions, you can configure that using this option. It doesn’t have any actual effect on the form; rather only for administrative purposes.
- Placeholder: You can also have a placeholder by which users will perceive the field subject.
- Required: Determine whether the field could be empty or not when the user submits your form by choosing the appropriate option from here.
- Validate URL: You can select Yes to notify a user that he needs to add a Valid URL; otherwise, an Error message will show. Or you can select No.

- Default value: You can manually set any fixed value in your field; also, you can pre-populate your input field dynamically by using our available shortcodes. To get a better understanding of Dynamic Default Value, read this guide.
