Google Sign Up Forms

I noticed that Squarespace uses a form that submits data to your Google Sheets if you want.

Is it possible to create a Google Form for email opt ins, and code it and style it differently on your own website?

Backend would be Google Form, front end would be your own design.

    IIRC - you can't modify Google Form styles outside of Google's visual editor.

    However, you can setup an autoresponder to Google Form submissions. You just won't be able to do some of the fancy stuff like setting up double opt-in.

    But given that the Google Forms exports as a GSheet - Pair this with the Mail Merge plugin for Google Sheets and you should effectively be able to use it as an email opt-in + mailer using Mail Merge.

    Side note: did a bit of googlin' around - looks like you can hack something together to post the information for you using AJAX, which of course then means you can frontend whatever you like:

    Let me know if you try this out. Would interested to hear about the results and effectivity.
