Simple Contact Form

By Rizwan Khan (rizwanahmed007) on January 21, 2025

I’ve been using Contact Form 7 for years, and it’s undoubtedly one of the most reliable and versatile plugins for creating contact forms. Its simplicity, compatibility, and lightweight nature make it an excellent choice for WordPress users. The ease of customization and integration with other tools is impressive, and it has served my websites flawlessly.

That said, I’d love to see a few enhancements to make this plugin even better. Adding a built-in date and calendar feature would simplify creating forms for bookings or appointments. Improving dropdown menu styling options would also be a great touch to enhance form aesthetics. Overall, this plugin remains a must-have for any WordPress site, and I look forward to seeing its future updates!

Dude what happened

Why it's unusable? This plugin was working so fine. Customize it it's a nightmare!

Lack of support, lack of accessibility

By heggyy on January 3, 2025

Overhyped plugin simply because it is free. It is the ultimate barebones of a plugin that people find necessary. There are no features, customizing anything means you are either a) a programmer or b) have to email support (in which case good luck getting help, egos too big). Gets no updates, no features, no accessibility or UX improvements. You're better off paying for a plugin than pulling your hair out to get it working as needed.

The team is highly responsive and helpful. They arranged a Google Meet session to assist me with an API and JSON data format issue, thoroughly resolving the problem on my end.

Translation issue and nightmare support.

By Saskia Teichmann (Jyria) on November 26, 2024

This free plugin is very useful and has done what it was supposed to do for many years. However, there are a few issues that are very annoying and a total deal breaker, if not a show stopper:

  1. Plugin creator did not comply with WordPress Codex regarding how translations are handled. Thus this plugin will eventually cause problems in a multilingual site.
  2. Forum support by plugin creator is very poor. He replies, yes, but his replies are a joke. He simply doesn't care. He doesn't read properly nor does he do any testing, even after providing everything he asked for. He is a time stealer.

My personal resume: I will switch contact forms on all of my clients' sites. There are better alternatives out there. I am of course willing to pay for support. And this is my suggestion for @takayukister : provide paid support, if you think your time is too valuable, to give a useful reply or provide assistance with your free plugin. Or take that plugin offline or officially state that you won't provide support at all and refrain from stealing people's time by requesting non sense things and then ignoring them in return.

Horrendous, overcomplicated plugin

By davepez on November 24, 2024

I've had problems with this plugin for years. It can appear simple at first but so many times has required a load of custom code to sort the formatting properly and to get it looking right on all devices. This always takes ages - googling it and finding loads of other people posting that they can't do simple things and never any solution. It should not require so much fannying about! The support website is useless, too.
