Form Builder Block

Kit’s Form Builder block, for the WordPress block editor, gives complete control to design and customize your own subscription and email marketing forms – directly in WordPress.

With the Form Builder block, you can:

• Add fields such as first name, email address, and custom fields
• Apply tags and sequences to subscribers for powerful segmentation
• Enable reCAPTCHA protection (if configured in your Kit account)
• Style forms using block editor controls, with full support for your block theme’s CSS and styling

This makes the Form Builder block ideal for:

• Subscription forms to grow your email subscribers list
• Contact forms that connect directly to Kit
• Custom forms tailored to your email marketing strategy

Build forms exactly how you want them, without touching a line of code, and start collecting the right email subscribers from day one.

Membership Sites and Membership Content Protection

Create powerful membership sites with Kit’s Membership Content feature. Require email subscribers to either purchase a Kit Product, or subscribe for free, to access your membership content – whether that’s a course, ebook, digital download, album, presets, coaching and more.

This membership functionality transforms your WordPress site into a comprehensive membership platform. Subscribers access their membership by entering their email address, receiving a one time passcode by email and clicking the link in the email. That’s it – no complex membership plugins or payment gateways to configure for your membership site.

There’s no limit to the number of Kit Products you can create for your membership site, and each can be assigned to one or more WordPress Pages and Posts, instantly turning them into membership-only content for your paid subscribers. Build a thriving membership community with ease.

Whether you’re creating a paid membership site, or offering free membership access, Kit’s membership features provide the flexibility to monetize your content through membership subscriptions while growing your email subscribers list simultaneously.

Send Email Newsletters and Email Marketing Campaigns

Use Kit’s email marketing feature to build and send email newsletters to your subscribers and leads, with options to send email newsletters to segments of your newsletter subscriber list.

Embed existing email newsletters on your WordPress web site, ensuring visitors never miss your email newsletter content, by:

• Using the Kit Broadcasts block in Gutenberg
• Using the [convertkit_broadcasts] shortcode in the Classic Editor

Landing Pages for Email Newsletter Growth

Design landing pages in Kit’s intuitive editor, choosing from a variety of landing page designs, customisable to your branding and ideal for building your email subscribers list or selling a product.

Additional landing pages can then be embedded on your WordPress web site. Simply create or edit a WordPress Page, choose the Kit landing page from the Kit meta box settings to display, and you’re all set to begin growing your email subscribers list more effectively with targeted landing pages.

Sell Products and Membership Access

Embed buttons (or link text) to sell your Kit Products and Tip Jars in seconds – whether that’s digital goods, paid email newsletters, membership access, membership-only content, music, coaching and more. Perfect for membership sites and monetization.

List Email Newsletters

Continue your email marketing strategy by automatically publishing your past email newsletters to WordPress Posts, defining a WordPress author, category and cut-off date within the Plugin’s settings to keep your newsletter subscribers informed.

Prefer to just list existing broadcasts, each linked to your Kit profile? Use the Broadcasts block or shortcode to embed your existing newsletters in any WordPress Page, Post or Custom Post Type, providing more touchpoints for your email newsletter content.
