Overview
What Advanced Support Form (Common Ninja) is
Advanced Support Form is Common Ninja's help-request form widget, a hosted form you build in Common Ninja's editor and embed on a Squarespace page. The old copy here described buttons, tabs and accordions, a different product.
What it does
The vendor page lists name and email, an issue category dropdown such as billing, technical or account, priority, order or account ID, a description field and custom questions per team. Customers can attach screenshots, photos, log files or receipts so agents see the problem before replying. Notification emails alert the team, honeypot fields and optional CAPTCHA keep the queue clean, and the ticket list exports to CSV for triage.
Who it suits
Small software products, online shops and service businesses on Squarespace that want structured support requests with attachments but are not ready for a help desk platform.
One honest caveat
Squarespace's Form Block can collect a support message for free, but not an attachment, which is the gap this fills. It is an intake form, not a help desk: no ticket numbering, status, threaded replies or knowledge base, so once a request lands you answer it by email. Tickets live in Common Ninja's dashboard on a third party script, and larger uploads sit in the paid tiers.
Setup and pricing
Build the form in Common Ninja's editor and paste the embed code into a Squarespace code block (Core, formerly Business, plan or higher). Common Ninja is recurring software: the free plan covers one support form with no time limit, and paid tiers add forms, submission volume, premium skins and the advanced features noted above.
