Disabling a form in HubSpot can be a valuable tool when you want to remove access to a form on your website or landing page. It enables you to manage which forms are actively being displayed to your visitors. In this tutorial, I will walk you through the step-by-step instructions for disabling a form in HubSpot.
Step 1: Accessing the Forms Dashboard
First, log in to your HubSpot account and navigate to the Forms dashboard. You can find it by clicking on the “Marketing” tab in the top navigation menu, then selecting “Lead Capture” from the dropdown menu and finally clicking on “Forms”.
Step 2: Selecting the Form
In the Forms dashboard, you will see a list of all the forms you have created. Locate the form that you want to unpublish and click on its name to open the form editor.
Step 3: Editing the Form Settings
Once you are in the form editor, click on the “Settings” tab in the left sidebar. Scroll down until you see the “Visibility” section.
In the “Visibility” section, you will find a toggle switch labeled “Published”. By default, this switch is turned on, indicating that the form is currently published and visible on your website or landing page.
To unpublish the form, simply click on the toggle switch to turn it off. You will see the switch change to the “Off” position, indicating that the form is now unpublished.
Step 4: Confirming the Unpublishing
Before you proceed, it’s always a good idea to double-check that the form has been successfully unpublished. To do this, you can click on the “Preview” button in the top-right corner of the form editor to open a preview of the form as it will appear to your visitors.
If the form does not appear in the preview, it means that it has been successfully unpublished. You can now close the preview and proceed with any other changes you need to make to the form.
Conclusion
Unpublishing a form in HubSpot is a straightforward process that allows you to control the visibility of the form on your website or landing page. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can easily unpublish any form that you no longer want to be accessible to your visitors. Remember to always double-check that the form has been successfully unpublished before finalizing any changes.
