Can a webform be generated as a link from an existing website?
We are currently using Google Forms, which isn’t the most user-friendly or flexible option for our registration forms. We add an icon on the related web page that links to the form. Our goal is to develop a webform that can be accessed directly from our site like any other page. This would involve uploading the form to our CMS, a third-party hosted and supported platform, and using it as a menu option. Our CMS allows us to create basic web pages or links to uploaded files such as PDFs, documents, and images.
We aim to skip our ISP due to the costs and difficulties. Is this possible? We also want to avoid using services like JotForm. Thank you.
You cannot simply transfer that structure into another editor or content system. The core backend features won't function properly. You might be able to rebuild it using a different tool, especially if you're familiar with HTML or the necessary capabilities. If your team lacks HTML expertise...
You're asking about the phrase "bypass our ISP." It means you still require a connection. Regarding your form, it's not possible to directly copy the Google form to your local server. However, you can build your own version using any tool that suits you. The fields can be adjusted as needed. Where is your website currently hosted?
Our web host manages the site. Content is either built directly in the CMS or via internal links to uploaded PDF or graphics files. I mistakenly used the term ISP, which actually refers to web host. On the content manager screen, it seems we can insert HTML code that no one here understands. Maybe using a standalone HTML editor and then copying/pasting would help?
The link will retrieve a screenshot (hopefully) of the CMS content manager page.

You cannot simply transfer that format into another editor or content manager. The essential backend features won't function properly. You'll need to rebuild it in another tool, especially if you're unfamiliar with HTML or related functionality. If your team lacks HTML expertise, hiring someone to handle it will be necessary. It will also require a hosting solution. The biggest concern appears to be the expense of your existing webhost.
