    Tip! The contact form on the home page is separate from the contact page. While the messages sent through the two forms go to the same place in your Wix inbox, you will need to edit each form if you want to make changes.

    This guide uses the contact page's form as an example, but you can use the same steps to edit the form on the home page.

    To see and make changes to the form's general settings (e.g. email notifications for messages submitted to the form), click anywhere on the right side of the form. Then click "Form Settings". A pop-up window will appear with all of the setting options.
