Thanks ever so much for these tutorials. I absolutely love your step by step guides. I'm currently building my first website for my local running group and the site is starting to look amazing thanks to all your guidance.
Hi, Stewart, Thank you for another very helpful tutorial. Your video on "How to Create a Free Website with Google Sites" helped me to get my site up and running and it looks great! One question I have for you regarding Google forms is, is there a way to be alerted whenever someone completes and submits a form?
@Stewart Gauld thanks for your reply. I did a bit more digging and learned that Google Forms actually has a built-in feature that allows for email notification. This is great because I don't have to use any third-party apps!
Hi Stewart, thanks so much for this great tutorials. I have a question, please. I want to create a google site to download a free PDF. My question is, how to give access to the download site ONLY AFTER submitting the form?
Hello mate! Really in depth tutorial! I'm having a weird issue, I've created my website and added a form using your videos and they wirk great, but when i enter the website with my custom domain, instead of the Google sites one, the page with the form doesn't load and throws a 404 error. Is there something else i should change/check? Thanks a lot!
Hello Stewart, thanks so much for this great video! I have a questions, please. I added the form to my Contact page on google sites, all works good, but when I click the submit button I have to use the vertical scroll bar to actually see the confirmation message on the top of that page. Is there any way to show always the top content of that page on the confirmation message? Thanks so much.
This video was perfect for me. I'm learning how to use Google Sites for an existing website, as I'm more used to Wix, and this was terrific. There is one question I do have though. Once the form is submitted by an individual it creates a "Submit successful" type of message but it retains the size of the original form. Is there a way to get rid of all the extra blank space once the form is submitted? I can't seem to find an answer about this.
@@StewartGauld thank you for the reply! is that another addon? because for me, i can use a theme colour and then i can only use "lighter" versions of that colour but not customize the background.
10:04 - that part DOES appear though when the website is live. I checked both from phone and from another browser. how to get rid of it and make it more premium?
I would like to reduce the size of some fields and reduce the height of the form overall. Seems it is not possible to do that. Also remove scroll bars.
Hello Stewart, Great tutorial but on my preview page it is still showing saving disabled? I did a test run of the page, I thought it would not show but it shows. It doesn't show on my edit page, any suggestions?
Page works, It's providing user information. It just looks unprofessional. I contacted Google but haven't had any response from them. Thanks again for the tutorial.😀
The "Saving disabled * Required" message is still visable on my website despite following all the instructions. Do you have any tips on how to ensure it isn't visable when the site is published? thanks in advance. Great tutorial - very clear.
Hello Stewart! Thank so much. great video! I have published my site. I have disable my restrictions to prevent auto save for all respondents. So my recipients wouldn't have to sign into a Google account to fill out my form. But there is a saving disabled sign that showed on my preview which you mentioned wouldn't show once website was published, but it still shows. How can get the saving disabled messages removed please?
Hello! Thanks for this video! It is really helpful. Steward, could you please tell me if my website is educating and contains tutorial videos, and if I publish my website, will I need to pay due to people watching these videos? For instance, if there are many people viewing website and watching videos, I will need to pay more? I have heard something similar about publishing usual website on Google. Thanks in advance!
How do I customize the contact form in order to make the width narrower? seems standard from google site is quite wide betweeen lines and boxes of contact form
@@StewartGauld I mean if you have a google contact form with the boxes name, surname, phone etc., the boxes are very high (a lot of space between last name and first name, adress, telephone). How do I reduce the height / width of all boxes?
You can enable notification for gmail. However, all responses can be found in your Google Forms file under responses or inside a Google Sheet if you connect one.
Hi Stewart. I'm unable to turn off the "Requres Sign-in" option on the form. I've tried everything I can think of. The "Restrict to users...." button is not there. Any suggestions?
@@StewartGauld hi, I'm just wondering if there is a way to turn off the "Requires Sign-in" option on the form. The same thing is happening to me and i can't fix it. Thank you!
Hi Stewart! I followed your instructions to the letter. But I still can't get my email address to remove from the form. I did go to Restrictions and checked the Disable auto-save, but my email address still comes up on the form. Can you please help!!
@@StewartGauld Hi Stewart, I have the same problem when the form is added to my website. The "Saving disabled" icon shows up, but still my email appears to the left of that icon.
All good, I see it showed my email address because I was logged into that account. Checking my site as any view might, my email doesn't show at the top. Thank you for a great video!
@@StewartGauld yes, and i did get a message buts it emtpy, so just the subject which i pout in a test" then nothing lese, so its basically worthless? can you help? thanks s lot!
Sorry, but why if we open website in mobile phone we can't see our google form after we ember this form on google site ? But of we open in laptop we can see

Unfortunately there is not.

Glad it was helpful! Sure is! You can setup an email alert using a tool like Zapier or another platform.
@Stewart Gauld thanks for your reply. I did a bit more digging and learned that Google Forms actually has a built-in feature that allows for email notification. This is great because I don't have to use any third-party apps!
YOU ARE BEST SO FAR

This was a wonderful demo, Thank You from someone who your series has really helped!
Hey! Your very welcome.
Great tutorial Stuart! I’ve just put a contact form onto my new Google Sites Website! 🙏 Thanks, Chris
Glad it was helpful!
Great demo! How do you collect the data from the Google forms AFTER you have embedded the form at your website? Where does the form data go?
The data goes into your forms backend under responses and also into a spreadsheet that you can export.
Hi Stewart, thanks so much for this great tutorials. I have a question, please.
I want to create a google site to download a free PDF.
My question is, how to give access to the download site ONLY AFTER submitting the form?
I would redirect people to another page after the submission where they can download.
@@StewartGauld thanks for your time. But, that is my question, How can I redirect to another page after the submission??

Try make your form display larger by dragging out the sides on your page. Let me know how you go.

What do you mean?
Super easily explained. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Brilliant videos thank you
Welcome!
very helpful boss
Glad it helped
Hi Stewart great video, my question is how do you link the email to someone else if i am design the website for a business?
Thanks. You will need to access their Google Form (they would share access with you).
Helpful mate, thanks.
No problem 👍
Best video to follow ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
Thanks
Excellent ❤
Glad you like it!
Great tutorial. Is there a way to send the contact form's enquiry message to an email of your choice?
you can but it is a complicated process.
very useful! thank you
Welcome!
Thanks Stewart, really helpful.
Very welcome!
So how to you optimize it for mobile? It looks good on laptop and tablet but when I view in mobile it’s not really manageable
It should be automatically responsive on mobile. What issue are you seeing?
love the video, how did you remove the background for the "reservation" form?
I'm glad! You can do this in the Google Form design interface. Background options.
@@StewartGauld thank you for the reply! is that another addon? because for me, i can use a theme colour and then i can only use "lighter" versions of that colour but not customize the background.
I think this is very helpful
I'm glad!
10:04 - that part DOES appear though when the website is live. I checked both from phone and from another browser. how to get rid of it and make it more premium?
Have you checked in incognito browser?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge mate, greetings from TX!
Glad it was helpful!
Your food-themed Header didn't appear at the top of the form on the site, neither did mine. It only shows on the Form in Drive, but not on the Site.
Hey mate,
Yes that is correct.
Hi wondering if you could help I am struggling to find how to insert business operating times and how to lay it out like you did in this tutorial.
Hey mate,
Are you having issues with you form?
I would like to reduce the size of some fields and reduce the height of the form overall. Seems it is not possible to do that. Also remove scroll bars.
Hey mate,
You can simply drag the sides to resize.
Helloo Stewart! you are a great tutor.
Thank you! I appreciate that.
Hello Stewart, Great tutorial but on my preview page it is still showing saving disabled? I did a test run of the page, I thought it would not show but it shows. It doesn't show on my edit page, any suggestions?
Thanks! You might just have a strange connection. It should still work, just a preview issue.
I opened another tab and clicked on link it took me to the page and it still had the saving disabled.
Page works, It's providing user information. It just looks unprofessional. I contacted Google but haven't had any response from them. Thanks again for the tutorial.😀
Hi Stewart, how do I add a delivery address to my form so that I can seperate the city and potcode ?
Good question! You can just add another custom field and add the that information that you want to collect.
The "Saving disabled * Required" message is still visable on my website despite following all the instructions. Do you have any tips on how to ensure it isn't visable when the site is published? thanks in advance. Great tutorial - very clear.
Hey Nicole,
I will have to look into this.

Hey,
I will have to test this out.
Hi! How did you do the "Hungry? Book a table" thing?
You can add a text element for the right hand side above the form

Hey mate,
No not at all. Are you just adding/embedding videos from UA-cam? Google Sites is 100% free.
How do I get an alert-email that someone used my "Contact Us" form? Very helpful video by the way.
You can set this up via an add-on inside Gmail.
@@StewartGauld thanks, it worked!
wOW! THANK YOU SOOO SOOO MUCH
Welcome 🤗

@@sati3sati welcome!
Great job, Stewart! I wanted to contact you about building a professional website and ask if you do it.
Welcome! We sure can. Feel free to get in touch.
Can you get an email notification? especially the message?? I would hate to look at responses each time to see what has been submitted.
Yes you can enable email notifications.
Does the form trigger an email that gets sent to your email address or only a notification in form on google docs?
You can enable notification for gmail. However, all responses can be found in your Google Forms file under responses or inside a Google Sheet if you connect one.
Hello Stewart! You are great at teaching this. How do I add reviews to my google site? Thanks for all the knowledge.👍
Hey,
Great question. You can link your Google Business Profile.
Has Google Sites changed. I created the form with your excellent tutorial but when try to insert it, there is no options for Forms?
Never mind, Have to hit Drive. Is there anyway to get rid of "Autosave Disabled"?
Thanks! Glad you sorted it. The visitors will not see this.
great video, very useful, thanks
Glad it was helpful!
How do I upload already made forms to my website? Like for daycare Admission forms? Thanks

Hey!
Did you embed the form?
once I put the form on my site - does it stay there? - or does it get deleted automatically after 30 days?
Your form will stay there until you remove it.
Hi Stewart. I'm unable to turn off the "Requres Sign-in" option on the form. I've tried everything I can think of. The "Restrict to users...." button is not there. Any suggestions?
