FAQ

Does this plugin require any other form plugins?

No. Lumo Forms is fully standalone.

How do I embed a form?

Each form automatically generates a shortcode like [lumoform id="1"]. You can also use the Lumo Forms Gutenberg block, or call do_shortcode('[lumoform id="1"]') in PHP templates.

Where are form submissions saved?

All submissions are saved in custom database tables (wp_lumo_forms, wp_lumo_submissions). You can view, filter, and export them from Lumo Forms Entries.

How do I accept payments?

Configure Stripe and/or PayPal under Settings Payments, then add Payment and Payment Gateway fields in the builder. Leave the gateway amount empty for variable totals from payment items or custom amounts.

Do you store credit card numbers?

No. Card data is entered in Stripe Elements and sent directly to Stripe. This plugin only stores payment metadata such as amount, currency, gateway name, and transaction ID.

Can I use PayPal?

Yes. Add your PayPal Client ID and Secret under Settings Payments, set Sandbox or Live mode, and select PayPal on the Payment Gateway field.

How do I test Stripe payments?

Use Stripe test keys (pk_test_… / sk_test_…) and test card 4242 4242 4242 4242 with any future expiry date and any 3-digit CVC.

Does the plugin support recurring subscriptions and refunds?

This release processes one-time charges. The Subscription field shows a plan-style amount and is charged once. Full recurring billing, refunds, and cancellations are planned for future versions. You can still issue refunds from your Stripe or PayPal dashboard.

How do integrations work?

Create a connection under Lumo Forms Integrations, enable it, then assign it on each form under Settings Integrations. After a successful form submit, Lumo sends the mapped data to the enabled services.

Which integrations are included for free?

Mailchimp, Brevo, and Slack.

Do I need field mapping for Slack?

No. Slack receives the form title and submitted field values. Map email and name only for Mailchimp and Brevo.

Where can I see if an integration ran?

Open Lumo Forms Reports (Form Health) for integration status and recent activity, or check the connected Mailchimp audience, Brevo list, or Slack channel.

Is this GDPR-compliant?

The plugin stores IP addresses and user agents with submissions, and payment metadata when a payment is collected. When integrations are enabled, mapped submitter data (such as email and name) is sent to those third-party services. Review your privacy policy and add consent fields where needed. See External services.

How do I enable captcha?

Go to Lumo Forms Settings Spam Protection, choose a provider and add API keys (not needed for Simple Math). Then open your form in the builder and enable Captcha under General Spam Protection.
