To create a workflow in Webflow that allows users to submit their email before downloading an ebook from a gallery, you can follow these steps:
- Design your gallery and create the download button:
- Start by designing your gallery using Webflow's built-in design tools. Add images and any other relevant content.
- Create a button within each gallery item that prompts users to download the ebook.
- Set up a form to collect user emails:
- Drag and drop a "Form" element from the Webflow Designer onto your page.
- Customize the form by adding an email input field where users can enter their emails.
- Optional: You can include additional fields in the form to collect more information about the user if desired.
- Configure the form submission:
- Once your form is set up, select the form element, go to the "Settings" tab, and click on "Form settings."
- Enable the "Form notifications" feature to receive an email notification every time someone submits the form.
- Next, choose the "Redirect" option and enter the URL of the ebook file so that users are redirected to the file after submitting their email.
- Add a form success message:
- After setting up the form submission, you can customize the success message that users will see once they've submitted their email.
- Connect your form to an email marketing service:
- To ensure you capture and store the email addresses of users who submit the form, you can integrate Webflow with popular email marketing services like Mailchimp or ConvertKit.
- In Webflow, go to the "Settings" tab, select the "Integrations" option, and choose your preferred email marketing service. Follow the instructions to connect it to your form.
- Style and position the form:
- Customize the form's style and position it in a visually appealing way within your gallery.
- You can use Webflow's Designer tools to modify the form's appearance, add animations, or adjust its position on the page.
By following these steps, you can create a seamless workflow in Webflow where users can submit their email and access the ebook from your gallery.
