Fluent Forms: sign straight after submitting

Connect a Fluent form to a SignSealer workflow once, and every submission ends on the signing page with its details already on the agreement.

Before you start

  • The plugin installed and this site connected (the getting-started guide).
  • Fluent Forms, active, with the form you want signed.
  • A form in SignSealer, under Forms & QR, made from the template the customer should sign. The plugin calls it a workflow.

Step by step

The words in bold are the words on the screen.

  1. Open SignSealer → Forms

    In the WordPress menu, open SignSealer → Forms. Every Fluent Forms form on the site is listed under its own heading, with its title and number.

    SignSealer → Forms: the Fluent Forms heading and its form Kayak booking, set to start the Kayak waiver.
  2. Choose the workflow

    Beside Workflow, choose the form in SignSealer this one should start. A form left on Nothing works exactly as it did before.

    One form's settings on SignSealer → Forms with the Kayak waiver workflow chosen.
  3. Say which fields hold the email and the name

    Choose the Email field and the Name field from the form's own fields; the number in brackets is the field's id. Add the Phone field if you send reminders by text. Only the fields you choose are sent to SignSealer.

    The email and name fields chosen for a form on SignSealer → Forms, each with its field id.
  4. Fill other blanks from the form (optional)

    If the template has blanks like a boat name or a pickup date, write one line for each under Blanks from the form: the blank's name, an equals sign, and the field id — for example boat_name = 4. The person's name and today's date are filled in without being listed. Dates and times from the form are written out in words on the agreement.

  5. Choose what happens after they submit

    Send them straight to the signing page is what most people want. Show the form's own confirmation, with a link to sign keeps your confirmation message and adds the link to it. Nothing here: SignSealer emails them the link leaves the form as it was and lets the email do the work.

    What happens after they submit, set to send them straight to the signing page.
  6. Save, and try it

    Press Save, then fill the form in yourself on the page where it lives. With Send them straight to the signing page you land on SignSealer's page. The submission in Fluent Forms → Entries shows the document, and its log says what was sent and when it was signed.

What happens next

  • The submission keeps the document's id, title and status, with a line in its log each time that changes.
  • After signing, the person is offered the way back to the page the form was on.

If something is not right

My name field has first and last name parts.

Choose the name field itself; the plugin joins the parts.
