Form submissions

Review signup counts, submission outcomes and the contacts created by each form.

Check a form’s statistics and recent submissions to understand how it grows your audience. See how many visitors signed up and whether each submission created or updated a contact.

Open a form’s results

Go to Forms and open a form. Its page shows the statistics, the Recent submissions list and the sharing details.

Form statistics

Statistic What it means
Views How many times the form loaded, on the hosted page or your website
Submissions Every submission received, including ones dropped as bots
Submit rate Real submissions per view
New contacts Signups that created a new contact
Contacts updated Signups from someone who was already a contact
Pending Double opt-in signups still waiting to confirm by email (shown when double opt-in is on)
Honeypot Bot-like submissions that were dropped

A low submit rate on a popup that loads on every page is normal. If a hosted link has many views but few signups, try a shorter form or a clearer heading.

Recent submissions

Recent submissions lists each submission, newest first, with the contact, its status and its source. Use Status to filter by:

  • Contact created: a new contact was added with email consent and joined the form’s group.
  • Contact updated: the person was already a contact. Their details were updated and they gave consent again.
  • Awaiting confirmation: double opt-in is on and they haven’t clicked the confirmation link yet. They aren’t in the group and get no marketing email until they confirm.
  • Honeypot detected: a bot filled in the hidden field. Nothing was added.

For privacy, the list doesn’t show the values people typed. To see what a person submitted, open their contact: the fields they filled in are saved on their profile.

What happens after someone signs up

When a submission is accepted:

  1. Kirora finds or creates the contact by email address.
  2. It records email consent, with the form’s consent wording as evidence. See Consent and unsubscribes.
  3. The contact joins the form’s group, plus any groups or topics they ticked.
  4. Any journey triggered by Submits a form starts for them, shortly after.

The visitor sees the same thank-you message or redirect whatever happened, so the form never reveals whether someone was already on your list.

With double opt-in, steps 2 to 4 happen only after the person confirms. Someone who submits twice in a day gets one confirmation email, and the first link still works.

Find form signups elsewhere

  • Contacts: filter by the form’s group to see everyone who joined through it.
  • Segments: build a segment of recent signups for a welcome campaign. See Segments.
  • Journeys: filter the Submits a form trigger to one form when you have several.

Troubleshooting

  • No views at all from your website: check the address under Where it may be embedded exactly matches your site, including https:// and www, with no page path or trailing slash, and that the form is published.
  • Lots of honeypot or bot signups: turn on Require a CAPTCHA. See Create a signup form.
  • Signups stuck as pending: ask people to check their spam folder for the confirmation email.
