Overview  

The contact-form content block renders a contact form powered by a form provider of your choice. Provide a render hook and action to link your custom form and callback action to the content block.

Netlify Contact Form  

Netlify Forms  provides serverless form handling, allowing you to manage forms without extra API calls or additional JavaScript. You can enable form detection by including a data-netlify or netlify attribute.

The following render hook uses automatic form detection by Netlify. The form itself includes fields for name, email address, and a message. It uses a honeypot field and reCAPTCHA v2 to reduce spam submissions.

{{ $error := false }}

{{/* Initialize arguments */}}
{{ $args := partial "utilities/InitArgs.html" (dict "structure" "form-hook" "args" . "group" "partial") }}
{{ if or $args.err $args.warnmsg }}
    {{ partial (cond $args.err "utilities/LogErr.html" "utilities/LogWarn.html") (dict 
        "partial" "assets/netlify-contact-form-hook.html" 
        "warnid"  "warn-invalid-arguments"
        "msg"     "Invalid arguments"
        "details" ($args.errmsg | append $args.warnmsg)
        "file"    page.File
    )}}
    {{ $error = $args.err }}
{{ end }}

{{ if not $error }}
    {{- $formSubmitButton := partial "utilities/GetThemeIcon.html" (dict "id" "formSubmitButton" "default" "fa paper-plane") -}}
    <form
        name="contact"
        action="{{ $args.action }}"
        method="POST"
        data-netlify="false"
        netlify-honeypot="bot-field"
        data-netlify-recaptcha="true"
        class="row g-3"
    >
        <div class="hidden">
            <label>{{ T "formBotField" }}: <input name="bot-field" type="text" /></label>
        </div>        
        <div class="col-md-12 form-floating">

            <label for="inputMessage">{{ T "formMessage" }}*</label>
        </div>
        <div data-netlify-recaptcha="true"></div>
        <div class="col-12">
            <button class="btn btn-primary" type="submit">{{ T "formSubmit" }}&nbsp;{{ partial "assets/icon.html" (dict "icon" $formSubmitButton) }}</button>
        </div>
    </form>
{{ end }}

  Important

The render hook example sets data-netlify="false" to reduce noise on the current website. Set it to true to enable automatic form detection by Netlify.
