It is the simplest but most useful form plugin. Does exactly what it should, no extra clutter. Thanks to Takayuki Miyoshi. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/36ea9fa7ad9adb3e3872134e51ae2089b9e1237df346dfcbc7a21b2799e6aef4? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Easy to set-up formular plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/easy-to-set-up-formular-plugin/)󠁿 [J-C Berthon](https://profiles.wordpress.org/huygens-25/) July 22, 2026 I really enjoyed that plugin. I needed last year to build a contact-us form for a WordPress website. I installed that plugin, and a few minutes later I add the contact form up and running, and it was just a matter of some more minutes (ok perhaps an hour, because I like reading documentation and testing 😉 ) so I add customised it to me liking. Great plugin, does what it’s supposed to do, and does it well and easy. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/b00e2d4f0a82270275d522957fbb3c3d095583d590d391abafc952bd773adad2? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[best cf7](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-cf7/)󠁿 [zuzo](https://profiles.wordpress.org/zuzo/) July 5, 2026 very nice ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/40bb3140f088e7a5df31fbbfaf953a58698492941ef330b60f617aea292d1c2a? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Handles Multiple Forms Well](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/handles-multiple-forms-well/)󠁿 [garvin89](https://profiles.wordpress.org/garvin89/) June 1, 2026 been running 3 diff forms on my site w this inquiry, booking & feedback. all working fine w no conflicts. shortcode system is a bit old school bt once u get it, its actually flexible. happy w it overall ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/5774e9237df2d682251b5bb68ce3c0d0e676757b184baaf77ae287f7d8fd4122? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Old School But Works](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/old-school-but-works/)󠁿 [alenaalan](https://profiles.wordpress.org/alenaalan/) May 25, 2026 Looks outdated ngl bt does exactly wht u need.
