Easily style and customize your Pardot lead forms by using this Form Style Generator for Pardot Forms. With only a couple of clicks you can customize every aspect of your Pardot form including: button color, label positioning and text color, no coding required.

How it Works

1. Create a new form in Pardot

The form style generator will pull in the default styles.

2. Go to the Style Generator

Customize the look of your form using the fields on the left side. A preview of your form will show on the right side.

  1. This is wonderful! I created the form using your generator and it looks correct in Pardot. However, when I insert the form into my landing page, the form doesn’t have the styling applied. The form itself looks correct when I look at the preview, but when added to the landing page, it does not. Any tips?

      Hi Stacy, Where is the CSS for the form placed? My guess is that your form and your landing page are using different layout templates. If so, the CSS should go in the layout template that the landing page uses. Hope that helps! Cheers, Jenna

  2. This is amazing! Is there a way to set a background colour across the whole form? Not the labels?

      Thank you! Not from within the editor, but you can add the CSS like this #pardot-form {background-color:Red;}. Cheers, Jenna

    Hi Jenna, do you know if it’s possible to target individual elements within the form, such as the ‘Opt out from all email communications’ link on the preferences pages?

    Love your blog btw, super helpful 🙂
