Can the Webflow team update the platform to allow forms within components to have unique form names?

At the moment, Webflow does not provide a built-in feature that allows forms within components to have unique form names. However, there is a workaround that you can implement to achieve this functionality. Here's how:

1. Create a custom form field in your component: Design your form component as usual, adding all the necessary form elements (such as inputs, buttons, etc.) within the component.

2. Add a custom attribute to your form component: Select your form component, go to the Settings Panel on the right-hand side, and scroll down to the Attributes section. Click on the "+" button to add a new attribute. Name the attribute "data-form-name" (or any other name that makes sense to you).

3. Set the value of the custom attribute: Assign a unique value to the "data-form-name" attribute for each instance of the form component that you want to have a different form name. For example, if you have two instances of the form component and you want them to have different form names, you can assign "form1" for the first instance and "form2" for the second instance.

4. Add custom code to modify the form name dynamically: Insert custom code into your site's project settings or page settings (in the Head Code section) to modify the form name dynamically based on the "data-form-name" attribute value. You can use JavaScript or jQuery to accomplish this. Here's an example of how you can achieve this with jQuery:

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js"></script><script>$(document).ready(function() {  $('form[data-form-name]').each(function() {    var formName = $(this).attr('data-form-name');      // Modify the form name    $(this).attr('name', formName);  });});</script>

1. Repeat the process for each form component instance: If you have multiple instances of the form component that require unique form names, make sure to repeat steps 2-4 for each instance.

By following these steps, you can assign unique form names to forms within components in Webflow. However, please note that this workaround requires some technical knowledge and the use of custom code. Additionally, if you make any changes to the form component in the future, you may need to update the custom code accordingly.

In conclusion, while Webflow does not currently offer a native feature for unique form names within components, you can achieve this functionality by leveraging custom attributes and code.
