When someone fills out a form on your site, a contact is created in your Contact List.
With old Wix Forms, some of the submission data is automatically saved but some you need to manually save. If you want data from a specific field in your form to show in your contacts, you must match it with a field in your contact list.
Notes:
- This feature is only available for old Wix Forms.
- In the new Wix Forms, all data for contact fields is automatically saved and it is not possible to collect information for custom fields.
