CRM Lead Form Not Showing on Your Venue Website? A Troubleshooting Checklist

Direct Answer / Quick Summary

Why is my HoneyBook, Tripleseat or Calendly form not showing on my website?

Embedded lead forms are usually added with a small script. They disappear when something stops that script from running: a cookie-consent banner blocking it, a speed or caching plugin delaying or combining scripts, a page builder stripping the code, an outdated embed code after the CRM changed, or a security header that does not allow the CRM's domain. Testing the page in a private window and checking the browser console usually shows which one.

Key Venue Takeaway: If the space where the form should be is empty, something is blocking the embed script. Find what changed most recently.

Detailed Forensic Analysis

Start with a private window. Open the page in a private or incognito window on desktop and on a phone. If the form shows in one and not the other, the cause is usually browser-specific: cookie consent, content blockers, or caching.

Cookie-consent banners. Many consent tools block third-party scripts until a visitor accepts. If your CRM form is classed as "marketing", couples who decline or ignore the banner never see the form. Classing the embed as necessary, or showing a direct link to the form as a fallback, solves this.

Speed and caching plugins. Features such as "delay JavaScript", "combine scripts" or "defer" can stop embed scripts from loading until a visitor scrolls or clicks, or break them entirely. Exclude the CRM's script from these features and clear the cache.

Page builders and editors. Some editors remove script tags when a page is saved, or need a dedicated "HTML" or "embed" block. If the embed was pasted into a normal text block, re-add it with the builder's HTML/embed element.

Outdated embed code. CRMs occasionally change how their forms are embedded. Copy a fresh embed code from your CRM account and replace the old one.

Security headers. If your site sends a Content-Security-Policy header, it must allow the CRM's script and frame domains. A browser console error mentioning "Content Security Policy" points here.

Always keep a fallback. Add a plain text link under the embed ("Can't see the form? Open it here") pointing to the CRM's hosted form page. Couples can still reach you even if the embed fails.

Practical Operator Checklist

Immediate Action Steps

01

Test in a private window and on a phone

Compare desktop and mobile, logged in and logged out.

Risk If Ignored: You see the form; couples do not.
02

Check the cookie-consent settings

Make sure the CRM form is not blocked until consent.

Risk If Ignored: Visitors who decline cookies never see the form.
03

Exclude the embed from speed optimizations

Disable "delay JS" / "combine scripts" for the CRM script and clear caches.

Risk If Ignored: The form loads late or not at all.
04

Refresh the embed code

Copy a new embed code from the CRM and replace the old one.

Risk If Ignored: An outdated embed silently stops working.
05

Add a direct-link fallback

Link to the CRM's hosted form page under the embed.

Risk If Ignored: One broken script blocks every inquiry.
