Q: IvyForms outside of Wardpress and responses sent to email
1. Can you embed forms outside of WP? Thinking of Substack in particular, but also other platforms.
2. Can you embed forms as standalone pages? For example, if I want to send my newsletter readers to a form but do not have a website.
3. Can you automatically send responses to my email cc someone else?

Embedding outside WordPress: IvyForms is a WordPress plugin, so forms live on a page of your WordPress site. Once the form is published on a page, you can embed that page on other platforms using an iframe, as long as the platform allows iframes. We don't have a dedicated embed code for external platforms at the moment. Whether Substack accepts custom iframes depends on Substack itself, so please check their embed options. At minimum, you can link readers to your form page.
Standalone pages: IvyForms doesn't host standalone form pages. If you have a WordPress site, you can create a page that contains only your form and share that link with your readers. Without a website, that isn't possible yet.
Emailing responses with a CC: yes, you can. In the form's notification settings, set Send to to your own address, and add the other person in the CC field. There's also a BCC field if you'd rather copy them privately. You can type the addresses in, or use an email field from your form.
These are all good ideas, and we'll forward them to our development team. If you'd like help with your current setup, you can reach our support team through the contact page (https://ivyforms.com/contact/).
