# Create a form

To create a form, sign in at forms.xgenplus.com and click **New form**, or pick a template such as Customer feedback, Event signup, Leave request, Vendor onboarding or a quick survey. Give it a title, add questions and click **Publish**. Your work saves automatically while you type.

## How to create a form

1. Sign in and click **New form**, or choose a template under **Start a new form**.
2. Type the form title and an optional description.
3. Click **Add question** and pick a type. Type the question and turn on **Required** if it must be answered.
4. Click **Preview** to see what people will see.
5. Fix anything listed in the "things to fix before you publish" box, then click **Publish**.

## When to use it

> Rohit needs signups for the Diwali get-together. He picks the Event signup template, changes the date and venue, adds a question on dietary needs and publishes it in ten minutes.

## Starter templates

| Template | Good for |
|---|---|
| Blank | Starting from nothing. |
| Customer feedback | Rating a product or visit. |
| Event signup | Names, attendance and preferences. |
| Leave request | Dates and reasons for leave. |
| Vendor onboarding | Company and service details, in sections. |
| Quick survey | A few questions with charts. |

## Good to know

- You can edit a live form. The button then reads **Publish changes**, and people see the new version once you publish.
- Forms are built mobile first, and the builder also works on a phone.

## Common questions

**Is my work saved?**

Yes. The top bar shows Saving, then Saved. If a save fails it shows "Not saved. Retrying" and tries again. Press Ctrl+S to save at once.

**Why can't I publish?**

A list shows what to fix, for example a missing form title, a question without a title, the same option twice or no questions. Forms also cannot ask for passwords, PINs, OTPs or card details, and will not publish a form that does.

**How many forms can I make?**

On the free allowance, 5 new forms each calendar month. Forms Plus raises this to 100.
