## Description

The **Centous Integration for Zoho with Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor Forms,
and Formidable Forms** plugin allows you to seamlessly connect form submissions 
from **Contact Form 7**, **WPForms**, **Elementor Pro**, and **Formidable Forms**
with **Zoho CRM** and **Zoho Bigin**.

Using this plugin, form submissions can be automatically sent to Zoho as Leads, 
Contacts, or other supported modules, helping you manage customer data efficiently
without manual entry.

### Key Features

 * Integration with **Contact Form 7**, **WPForms**, **Elementor Pro**, and **Formidable
   Forms**
 * Supports **Zoho CRM** and **Zoho Bigin**
 * Secure OAuth-based Zoho authentication
 * Create and manage multiple form-to-Zoho feeds
 * Field mapping between form fields and Zoho modules
 * Test connection and verify Zoho credentials
 * Logs for API actions and errors
 * Clean uninstall option (optional data removal)

### Usage

 1. Connect your Zoho account from the plugin settings
 2. Select the Zoho service (CRM or Bigin)
 3. Create a feed and choose a form (Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor, or Formidable
    Forms)
 4. Map form fields to Zoho fields
 5. Save the feed
 6. Submissions from the selected form will now be sent to Zoho automatically

For **Elementor Pro** forms, select **Elementor** as the form type when creating
a feed, then choose the page/form widget from the dropdown. Map fields using each
Elementor field’s **Custom ID** where available.

### Configuration

The plugin uses a **feed-based configuration system**, allowing you to control which
forms send data to Zoho and how the data is mapped.

### Plugin Menu Structure

After activating the plugin, you will see a new menu in the WordPress admin sidebar:

 * **Zoho CRM Connect**
    - Zoho CRM Connect
    - Test Connection
    - Feeds
    - Logs
    - Settings

### 1. Zoho CRM Connect (Zoho Connection Setup)

 1. Go to **Zoho CRM Connect  Zoho CRM Connect**
 2. Choose the Zoho service:
 3.  * Zoho CRM
     * Zoho Bigin
 4. Enter your Zoho OAuth credentials (Client ID, Client Secret, Redirect URI)
 5. Click **Authorize / Connect**
 6. Once connected, your Zoho account details will be displayed

This step is required before creating any feeds.

### 2. Test Connection

 1. Navigate to **Zoho CRM Connect  Test Connection**
 2. Click the **Test Connection** button
 3. The plugin will verify:
 4.  * OAuth authentication
     * Access token validity
     * Zoho API connectivity

A success or error message will be shown based on the result.

### 3. Feeds (Core Configuration)

Feeds control how form submissions are sent to Zoho.

### Create a New Feed

 * Select the Zoho module where data should be sent (e.g. Leads, Contacts, Deals,
   etc.)

c) Field Mapping

 * Once the form and module are selected, the **Field Mapping section appears**
 * Map Zoho fields to the selected form fields
 * Form fields are shown as dropdown options based on the selected form

Example:

 * **Zoho Field:** `Last Name`  **Form Field:** `your-name`
 * **Zoho Field:** `Email`  **Form Field:** `your-email`
 * **Zoho Field:** `Phone`  **Form Field:** `your-phone`

Mandatory Zoho fields must be mapped before saving the feed.

d) Feed Status

 * Enable or disable the feed using the **Active / Inactive** toggle
 * Only **active feeds** will send data to Zoho

 1. Click **Save Feed**

Once saved and active, submissions from the selected form will be sent to Zoho automatically.

### Why We Built This Plugin

Zoho CRM is a powerful tool for managing customer relationships. By integrating 
it with popular WordPress form builders, we wanted to make it easier for users to
send contact data directly to Zoho and automate the lead management process.

### Data Handling & GDPR Compliance

 * This plugin collects and stores personal data submitted through forms in the 
   WordPress database and sends that data to Zoho CRM or Zoho Bigin via secure APIs.
 * Personal data may include names, email addresses, phone numbers, and other form
   fields configured by the site administrator. Site owners are responsible for 
   informing users and obtaining consent where required by applicable data protection
   laws.

### 󠀁[Almost perfect](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/almost-perfect-550/)󠁿

This plugin works almost flawlessly. When configuring the datacenter for Canada (
zohocloud.ca), the oauth url tried to go to accounts.zoho.ca; I had to change it
to accounts.zohocloud.ca The most limiting thing I couldn't figure out why is the
mapping of custom fields. I chose Leads module, and it brought me just 7 crm fields
to map; some I didn't even needed, and my other custom fields didn't appear. I couldn't
add more fields to be mapped, so apparently it is fixed for up to 7 fields. Didn't
get it. If having more flexibility on the fields mapping, this plugin will be top-
notch.
