Quick answer

Most missing messages are in spam or go to the wrong recipient. Allowlist @mail.carrd.site and check the recipient.

Most likely fix: Contact form emails

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Contact form emails

    1. Check spam and allowlist @mail.carrd.site.
    2. Confirm the recipient; default is your Carrd account email.

  2. 2. Custom form errors

    1. Give each field a unique label and ID using letters, numbers, hyphens, underscores.
    2. For Send to URL, return HTTP 200 on success.

  3. 3. Integrations

    2. Airtable: verify API key, Base ID, exact Table Name and field names.
