  I mean, I would love to have a pattern including : contact / leave your name, your text, your email. Something like that

  You’re looking for the contact form. The simplest way is to create a post or page via the WP-Admin dashboard, and insert the contact form via the button that appears in that editor: https://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/

  @kokkieh, that’d work, you could have a on page or sticky post like you said, and also it’s possible on a widget area (sidebar, footer etc ) ?

  You can add a contact form inside a text widget as well, yes. Create the contact form inside a new post/page, and then copy-paste the shortcode from the post editor into a text widget.

  I put the contact form on a Page – then I just put a link to that Page anytime I want to use the contact form – code once use many times

  @eugeniofouz – You’re welcome, I think you should be able to get near what you want with our suggestions, if not exactly what you want !

  Cheers

  You are going to smile a bit, but I can´t see my contact page. I have followed your instructions step by step, I think I have added a new page. Nothing new appears on my blog. My theme is Kubrik.
  Apparently my contact form should appear next to Twitter and Efnotebloc. If you have a minute, have a look at it and see how I am right (or not) ;-))

  Your contact page published correctly. I can see it here: https://notebloc.wordpress.com/contacto/ It’s just not appearing in your menu.

  It looks like you have a custom menu widget at the top of your sidebar. In the dashboard, go to Appearance ->Menus. Edit your menu, add the new page, and save the menu. That should automatically update the menu that displays in the widget.
