I use a Typeform for a lengthy questionnaire that has its own subpage on my website.  (https://hilarybeckwith.com/candida-questionnaire)

I would like to also create a pop-up Typeform for my main landing page that only has some text and a button that links TO that subpage. Due to the lengthy format of the questions, I don’t like the idea of the questionnaire itself being used in the pop-up.

Is this a possibility without using hyperlinked text? Would prefer a button, as that looks much nicer.

Hi @hbeckwith 

 

There is no need to have a separate Typeform linking to that Typeform (assuming you do not want to capture any additional data)

 

You could simply create a popup on your site having a link (or button) which points to the Typeform URL

Hope this helps!

@Harsh Yes, this is what I’m trying to do, as I mentioned. The question is, How?

 

Typeform creates pop-ups, but apparently not one that includes a button I can link externally (unless I just can’t find it?).

Typeform is used to create forms. The popup functionality is simply one of the ways Typeform gives us to display the form

 

What you are wanting is basically a simple popup with no form i.e no Typeform functionality

 

You could create this popup (which has a link to your Typeform) on your site using HTML, CSS and Javascript . If you are using a CMS such as Wordpress etc there may be some plugins to available to do the same.

However creating the popup using HTML, CSS and Javascript is a sure shot way

 

A Google search for “create a popup using html and javscript and css” should point you in the right direction

 

Hope this helps!
