Follow the process below to make a sign up sheet on Google Forms to gather participant information for any event or activity effortlessly.
Navigate to the main page of Google Forms and click on the "+ Blank" button. This action will create a fresh, untitled form, providing you with a canvas to design your signup sheet.
At the top of the page, you'll find an untitled form. Click on it and type "Sign up Sheet" or any other relevant title.
Below the title, there's a space for a description. Here, you can add a brief explanation or instructions, such as "Please fill out this form to sign up for the event."
To collect participant information, click the "+ Add Question" button to create fields.
Start by naming the first field "First Name," the second field "Last Name," and the third field "Email Address."
For the name fields, ensure that the 'Short answer' type is selected, allowing participants to input text freely. For the email field, still choose 'Short answer.'
Click on "+ Add Question" again and create a field named "Preferred Time Slot."
Choose the 'Dropdown' question type and enter the available time slots as options, making it easy for participants to choose.
Click on the three dots (options) on the email question, select 'Response validation.'
Choose 'Text', and 'Email' to ensure participants will input a valid email address format.
Personalize the appearance by clicking on the palette icon on the top right. Here, you can change the color scheme, font, and background to make your signup sheet visually appealing.
To configure settings like collecting email addresses or limiting responses, click on "Settings" located at the center top next to "Responses". Here, you can adjust the preferences as needed.
Click the eye-shaped "Preview" icon on the top right to open your form as a participant would see it. Test all fields and ensure that the form behaves as expected.
Once you're satisfied with your form, click on the "Send" button in the top right corner.
You can share your form in the following ways:
Via Email: Input the recipient's email address, subject, and message. Click "Send."
Via Shareable Link: Click on the 'Link' icon and copy the link. Share it through messages, social media, etc.
Embed in a Webpage: Click on the '< >' icon to get the embed code, and paste it into your webpage's HTML.
After sharing your form, you can monitor and review the responses by clicking on the "Responses" tab at the top of your form.
