# Thank-you page & redirect

Customize the thank-you page respondents see after they submit, with text, links, images, and their answers, or send them to your own web page.

## Add a thank-you page

Without one, respondents see “Thanks for your response!” To make your own, click **Thank You Page** in the Blocks tab, or type `/` and pick it. A green **Thank You Page** divider appears at the end of the form, and everything below it is the thank-you page. To go back to the default, click the trash icon on the divider.

A form has one thank-you page, and it is always last. It can hold:

- Headings, paragraphs, lists, and tables

- Images, YouTube videos, Google Maps, and embeds

- Links, including link buttons to your site, store, or calendar

- Columns, to lay any of the above out side by side

- Earlier answers: type `@` to mention one, as in “Thanks @name, we'll review your application”. See [@ mentions](https://formstep.io/docs/building-forms/answer-piping/).

Questions, logic, and page breaks cannot go on it. The thank-you page is translated with the rest of the form in **Translate**. See [Multilingual forms](https://formstep.io/docs/building-forms/translating-form-content/).

> **Show the next step**
>
> Respondents are still paying attention right after they submit, so use the thank-you page to point them to the next step, such as booking a call or reading a confirmation.

## Send respondents to your own page

1. Open **Settings**, then the **Submissions** tab.

2. Under **After someone submits**, pick **Go to a web page**.

3. Type the address in **Web page**. `yoursite.com/welcome` becomes `https://yoursite.com/welcome`.

After submitting, the respondent sees “Redirecting in 3 seconds…”, and then the browser opens your page. If you built a thank-you page, it shows during those 3 seconds.

Under **After someone submits** you pick one option: go to a web page, offer another response, or [show live results](https://formstep.io/docs/building-forms/live-results/). A form that redirects shows no **Submit again** button and no results.

### Pass answers to your page

Under **Redirect URL query parameters**, add a row per parameter: a name, and the question or field whose value it sends. You can send answers, hidden fields, calculated fields, and details such as the submission ID. A preview shows the finished address:

```
https://yoursite.com/welcome?email=alice%40example.com&plan=pro
```

Use it to greet respondents by name on your page, or to fill in a form on your site. Empty answers are left out. A question inside a [repeating group](https://formstep.io/docs/building-forms/repeating-groups/) sends one parameter per item: `?guest=Alice&guest=Bob`.
