How to Create Contact Form in Blogger: Adding a contact form to Blogger is a difficult task, as it does not allow plugins like WordPress. Most bloggers of BlogSpot take help of third-party sites (like foxyform, jotform).
Blogger has its own contact form widget available, but they are not nice or attractive to use. So today we will learn how to create a custom contact form for blogger.
Create Blogger Stylish Contact Page – Contact Form in Blogger
I have divided this tutorial into three sections, add Contact Gadget, Hide Gadget and implement the official code in a new page.
1. Add Contact Gadget
First of all, you need to add blogger contact form widget to your blog. This will enable the functionality of your contact form. What to do for this?

Step 3: Click on Add a Gadget here.
Step 4: A popup show and click on More Gadgets.

2. Hide the Gadget
To hide the default Blogger contact form, you have to follow these steps.
Step 1: Click on the Template menu and go to the Edit HTML button.
Step 2: Now tap on HTML area and press ctrl + F button on keyboard.
Step 3: A search box will appear, here you enter this code by typing ]]></b:skin>.
Step 4: Now just paste the small CSS code above this code ]]></b:skin>.
div#ContactForm1 {
display: none !important;
}
Save your template and you are done.
3. Add Contact Form to Page
Now you can create a static Contact Us page for blogger. To do this, we need to create a contact page on our blog.

- Fill the page title with Contact Us/Contact and click on the HTML tab.
- Now copy the following code and paste it in the HTML mode of the page.
