How to Add a Tailwind Contact Form Using Fabform (Full Single‑Page Tutorial)

This page contains a complete, self‑contained tutorial showing you exactly how to add a fully functional contact form to your website using Tailwind CSS and Fabform. Everything you need is included right here — no external links, no redirects, and no missing steps.

What Is Fabform?

Fabform is a form backend service that allows you to collect submissions from any HTML form without writing server‑side code. You simply point your form’s action attribute to your Fabform endpoint, and Fabform handles:

• storing submissions
• email notifications
• spam filtering
• redirects after submission

This makes it ideal for static sites, landing pages, Tailwind projects, and small business websites.

Step 1 — Create Your Fabform Endpoint

To receive submissions, you need a unique Fabform endpoint. When you create a form inside your Fabform dashboard, you will be given a URL that looks like this:

https://fabform.io/f/YOUR-FORM-ID
    

Copy this URL — you will paste it into your Tailwind form in the next step.

Step 2 — Add Tailwind CSS to Your Page

If your site does not already use Tailwind, you can include it using the CDN version. This is the simplest way to get started and works perfectly for static sites.

<script src="https://cdn.tailwindcss.com"></script>
    

Step 3 — Add the Tailwind Contact Form

Below is a complete, production‑ready contact form styled with Tailwind. Replace YOUR-FORM-ID with your actual Fabform endpoint ID.

<form action="https://fabform.io/f/YOUR-FORM-ID" method="POST" class="bg-white shadow-lg rounded-lg p-8 space-y-6">

  <h2 class="text-2xl font-semibold">Contact Us</h2>

  <div>
    <label class="block font-medium mb-1">Your Name</label>
    <input type="text" name="name" required
      class="w-full border border-gray-300 rounded-lg px-4 py-2 focus:ring-2 focus:ring-blue-500 focus:outline-none">
  </div>

  <div>
    <label class="block font-medium mb-1">Email Address</label>
    <input type="email" name="email" required
      class="w-full border border-gray-300 rounded-lg px-4 py-2 focus:ring-2 focus:ring-blue-500 focus:outline-none">
  </div>

  <div>
    <label class="block font-medium mb-1">Message</label>
    <textarea name="message" rows="5" required
      class="w-full border border-gray-300 rounded-lg px-4 py-2 focus:ring-2 focus:ring-blue-500 focus:outline-none"></textarea>
  </div>

  <button type="submit"
    class="w-full bg-blue-600 text-white font-semibold py-3 rounded-lg hover:bg-blue-700 transition">
    Send Message
  </button>

</form>
    

Step 4 — Add Optional Success and Error Redirects

Fabform allows you to set custom redirect URLs for:

• successful submissions
• failed submissions

You configure these inside your Fabform dashboard. Once set, users will automatically be redirected after submitting the form.

Step 5 — Test Your Form

After adding the form to your website:

• Submit a test message.
• Check your Fabform dashboard to confirm the submission.
• Enable email notifications if you want instant alerts.

SEO Tips for Contact Form Pages

To help search engines understand your page and improve your ranking, consider:

• adding a descriptive page title and meta description
• including keywords like “Tailwind contact form”, “HTML form backend”, “Fabform integration”
• writing a short introduction explaining what users can contact you about
• adding structured data for business contact information
