Sound familiar?

Swap your contact Form Block for a simple form in a Code Block that posts to Doorman. Real enquiries reach your inbox; pitches, SEO outreach and bots stay out, and you never have to look.

No app to install: you paste a short form into a Code Block. 14 days of Pro free, no card. Then free for 100 submissions a month, or Pro from $29.

  1. The same pitches every weekSEO audits, redesign offers and "partnership" emails arrive through your contact form, typed by people.
  2. Captchas don't read messagesThey slow simple bots down, but today's outreach bots pass them, and real customers get the puzzle.
  3. Your inbox is the filterEvery junk message is a minute of your day. Doorman reads it first and keeps the real ones.

Set up on Squarespace

  1. Add a Code Block on the contact page, add a Code Block (on plans that allow custom code) and paste the form below.
  2. Point it at Doorman the form's action is your Doorman form URL; name the fields email and message.
  3. Where real ones go email, Slack or a signed webhook, with a redirect to your own thank-you page.
  4. Start safely watch mode delivers what it would have dropped, tagged, until you switch it to enforce.

Questions

Can Doorman screen Squarespace's own Form Block?

Not directly: a Form Block can't send to another address. Use a Code Block form that posts to Doorman, or send the Form Block to a connected tool that can forward to a webhook.

Will it look like the rest of my site?

The Code Block form uses plain HTML fields, so your site's styles apply; add your own CSS to match the Form Block exactly.

What do visitors see after sending?

Your own thank-you page. Doorman redirects every submission the same way, whatever the verdict.

How much does it cost?

Free for 100 submissions a month. Pro is $29 a month for 5,000 and Business is $79 a month for 50,000, and every account starts with 14 days of Pro. Until November 30, the first 100 paying customers get Pro at $19 and Business at $59, kept for as long as they stay. See pricing.
