Simplifying access to important documents or further details directly through the form improves the overall user experience. Users appreciate the convenience of having everything they need within reach, without having to search your site for more information. - Compliance and Legal Assurance
For forms that require user agreement to terms, conditions, or policies, adding a direct link to those documents ensures that you meet legal requirements for informed consent. This is crucial for compliance in many industries. - Customization and Flexibility
Elementor’s capability to add HTML to form fields offers vast customization options. You can tailor the appearance and functionality of your forms to meet the specific needs of your website and audience.
