Method A: HTML Embed

Method A: HTML Embed (The Easy Button)

Best for: Squarespace, Wix, WordPress, Webflow, or static HTML sites.

This is the simplest way to get your form running. The browser handles the data submission natively, automatically processes our spam honeypot, and redirects the user to your "Success URL" upon completion.

How to Integrate

  1. Copy the HTML snippet below (or generate your custom snippet from the Gordon CRM dashboard).
  2. Paste it into an "HTML," "Code," or "Embed" block on your website builder.
  3. Update the <input> types and CSS classes to match your brand's styling.
<form method="post" action="[https://app.gordoncrm.com/api/forms/YOUR_FORM_ID](https://app.gordoncrm.com/api/forms/YOUR_FORM_ID)">
  <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email Address" required />
  <input type="text" name="first_name" placeholder="First Name" />
  <input type="text" name="last_name" placeholder="Last Name" />
  
  <div style="position:absolute;left:-9999px" aria-hidden="true">
    <input type="text" name="website_url" tabindex="-1" autocomplete="off" />
  </div>
  
  <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

Understanding the Honeypot

Notice the hidden website_url field? This is a spam honeypot. Real users will never see it, but automated bots will fill it out. If our backend receives data in this field, the submission is silently dropped. Do not remove this <div>, or your form will be vulnerable to spam.
