Best practices and tips

- Ensure your Submit button label is clear and action-oriented (e.g., “Submit”, “Get Started”, or “Sign Up”). - The button should stand out visually on the form, using contrasting colors while still being in line with your overall design. - Consider adding a tooltip or instructional text near the button to guide users on what will happen next when they click it. - Test your form's appearance on multiple devices to ensure the Submit button is properly displayed on both mobile and desktop platforms.

Common use cases with examples

1. **Lead Generation Forms**: Use a brightly colored Submit button with the label “Get My Free Ebook” to encourage downloads. 2. **Contact Forms**: Label the button “Send Message” to provide clarity on the action being completed. 3. **Survey Forms**: Integrate a Submit button that reads “Share My Feedback” to foster a sense of connection with participants.

Troubleshooting

If your changes to the Submit button do not appear as expected, consider the following steps: - Refresh the form editor to ensure all updates are reflected. - Check for any conflicting CSS styles that may override your button customization. - If you are using custom scripts, verify they are functioning correctly and not causing issues with the button display.
