All about Link in bio Forms

Learn what Link in bio Forms are, where to find them, and how to customize them to match your brand.

A Link in bio Form is a standalone, shareable page you can add to your social media bio (like Instagram or TikTok).

It helps you:

• Collect email subscribers

• Share important links

• Showcase your brand in one simple page

• Turn social followers into email subscribers

Instead of sending people to multiple links, you can send them to one beautiful page that:

• Captures email addresses

• Shares your offers

• Highlights your content

• Grows your audience (that you own)

This means you’re not relying only on social media algorithms. You’re building an email list you control.

Link in bio Forms can also replace tools like Linktree — but with built-in email capture and segmentation.

1. Log into your Flodesk account

2. Go to Forms

3. Click + New form

4. Select Link in bio from the template gallery

Choose a template you like and click Customize it to start editing.

The first step is choosing a segment.

Subscribers who sign up through this form will automatically be added to the segment(s) you select.

You can:

• Choose an existing segment

• Create a new one

This helps you stay organized and send targeted emails later.

Click anywhere outside the form preview, then use the right sidebar under the Form tab to turn sections on or off.

Here’s what you can customize:

You can:

• Use your saved brand logo (from Account settings → Branding)

• Upload a different image

You can adjust:

• Logo width

• Alignment

• Padding

This is your main message.

You can:

• Edit text

• Change fonts

• Adjust size and color

• Add formatting

Keep your form message clear and focused. Tell visitors exactly what they’ll get.

By default, you’ll see email — but you can add more fields.

To add a field:

1. Click Add field

2. Customize the label

3. Adjust styling

Preferences allow subscribers to choose what they want to receive.

For example:

• Weekly newsletter

• Product updates

• Free resources

• Waitlist access

You can:

• Add up to six preference options

• Rename each option

• Connect each one to a specific segment

Important: Each preference must be connected to a segment. Otherwise, selections won’t save.

Under the Font and Style tabs, you can further customize your form preferences to your brand by

• selecting a matching font—you can even use your own brand fonts—

• font color or

• checkbox type and layout.

Your button is your call-to-action.

Customize:

• Button text (e.g., “Get the guide”, “Join the list”)

• Font

• Style

Make it clear and action-focused.

Add a:

• Branded image from your computer

• Product mockup from your connected Canva account

• Lifestyle photo via Unsplash

• Fun GIF via Giphy

You can experiment with shapes and styling.

Don’t need it? Toggle it off under the Form tab.

The link list lets you share additional links — even if someone doesn’t subscribe.

You can add up to six links, such as:

• Your website

• Booking page

• Freebie

• Blog

• Shop

You can:

• Rearrange links by dragging them on the right side panel

• Delete a link by clicking the three dots on the link card and select 'Delete' (note: deleted links must be recreated from scratch)

Use the Bio section to:

• Introduce yourself

• Share your mission

• Include your signature

You can toggle parts of this section on or off in the block settings.

You can display your social media icons at the bottom of the page.

To manage social accounts:
Go to Account settings → Branding

You can customize:

• Icon color

• Icon size

After someone subscribes, click the Thank you tab.

You can:

• Use a pre-written success message

• Write your own custom message

• Redirect subscribers to another page (like a freebie or website)

Once your design is ready:

1. Click Settings in the top right corner.

2. Turn double opt-in on or off

3. Choose which segments subscribers are added to

4. Enable subscriber notification emails (optional)

5. Connect your Meta pixel ID (if you are running ads)

6. Add your Privacy policy link to your full page form

7. Require explicit marketing consent

Open the Link tab to:

• Edit the form URL

• Set your Flodesk handle (for a cleaner, branded link)

Under Link preview, you can control:

• Preview image

• Page title

• Description

This affects how your form appears when shared on social platforms or in messages.

Click Share, then:

• Copy the form link, or

• Share directly to Facebook, X (Twitter), Pinterest, or LinkedIn

• Grab the form's QR code

That’s it—your opt-in form is live.
