# Customize the notification subject line

> Set a fixed subject, use a template with submitted values, or let the visitor write it.

The default subject is `New submission: {{form_name}}`. There are three ways to change it.

## 1. Subject template in the dashboard

In **Settings → Email Notifications**, set the **Subject**. Put any field name in double curly braces to include its value, plus `{{form_name}}`.

```
New {{budget}} enquiry from {{name}}
→ New $5k+ enquiry from Jane Smith
```

## 2. A hidden field in your form

```html
<input type="hidden" name="subject" value="New enquiry from the pricing page">
```

Handy when one account has several forms or pages and you want each to have its own subject without changing settings.

## 3. Let the visitor choose

```html
<input type="text" name="subject" placeholder="What is this about?">
```

## Which one wins?

The dashboard template is used first. If it is empty, the form’s `subject` field is used, then the default. Subjects are kept to a single line.

## Sender name

To change the name the email appears to come from, set **Sender** in the same settings page, or add a hidden `from_name` field.
