Thank You Messages Taken to the Next Level
When your form is submitted, you may choose to redirect your prospect to a different URL, but you may also choose to have your form fade out, and a "thank you" message fade in.
Until now, you were presented with a simple text field to compose your thank you message, but now...
Compose "Thank You" Messages with Sections, Rows, and Elements
Thank You message are now composed of one or more sections, rows, and elements - just like forms themselves.
This means your thank you messages may now include:
- Buttons that link to anywhere you like
- Images
- Headings of various sizes
- Dividers
- Text as you like – including translations
You're free to use rows that are full width, a 50/50 split, thirds, etc.
We've upgraded your existing forms that use thank you messages automatically.
You'll find your thank you message now consists of a single "paragraph" element. You're free to edit it as you wish using these new capabilities.
Form input fields are not available to be added to a thank you message.
Conditional "Thank You" Messages
You can already choose to redirect your prospects to different URLs based on values submitted in the form or other contact/account field values.
Now you can display varying "thank you" messages conditionally as well!
Display different thank you messages based on:
- Values your prospect has entered into your form
- Lead/Contact standard and custom fields
- Account standard and custom fields
- The language of the prospect submitting your form
Conditional Thank You Messages:
Slack Notifications
You can now have Paminga notify you via Slack when your Paminga forms are submitted!
The searchable dropdown lists all of your non-archived, public channels that have at least 1 member.
Simply choose a channel to start receiving notifications in Slack.

Zapier Triggers
You can now have Paminga send a Zapier "trigger" when your Paminga forms are submitted.
Zapier is a third party service that allows you connect Paminga with 1,000's of other apps – with no need for anyone to write software code.

Form Submission Notifications - Field Ordering
A customer pointed out that fields in an emailed form submission notification were not appearing in the same order as in the form.
We're happy to report that has been corrected 🙂
State Abbreviations
When your form includes a "US States" field, do you want the state recorded using it's full name, like "Colorado"?
Or do you want to use the two letter abbreviation, like "CO"?
Simply check (or uncheck) the box labeled "Abbreviate State Names".
Color Picker / Hex Color Default
The color picker allows you to toggle how colors are represented. The choices are:
- Hex
- RGBA
- HSLA
The default had been RGBA. We didn't mean to do that to you! 😅
Hex is a much more common way of choosing colors on the web, and it's now the default.
Tahoma Font
We added the Tahoma font per a customer request. The Tahoma font may now be used, in addition to the hundreds of fonts already available, anywhere text is displayed your forms.
Czech Language in Internationalization
A customer pointed out that Czech was not available when internationalizing a form. It is now!
Are You Feeling the Love?
This new form builder is just a few months old, yet we're cranking out more goodness to make it better for you.
And not just a little - this is quite the pile of updates to land 2 weeks into January!
As Paminga's founder, I'm proud of the team and what they are delivering for you.
Coming Soon - the Template Library
You'll be able to save any Section, Row, or Element – with all of your customizations, including internationalization – to your "Library" for re-use in any form in the future.
Of course you'll be able to save entire forms to your library as well.
