## Description
Build drag-and-drop forms, manage entries, and connect optional email, AI, payments,
webhooks and Google Sheets—all free.
Ollicom Form Builder is a practical form builder by Ollicom. Start from 25 editable
templates, keep entries in your WordPress database, and enable the connections you
choose. Every Ollicom Form Builder feature is available without a paid plugin upgrade,
submission quota or Ollicom account.
#### Build a form and publish it
* Start with 25 ready-to-edit templates for contact, support, quote requests, bookings,
events, feedback, jobs, privacy requests and more.
* Arrange text, email, message, dropdown, checkbox, radio, number, date, phone
and website fields with drag and drop, touch controls or keyboard controls.
* Set required fields, edit success messages and preview the form while editing.
* Create as many forms as your WordPress site needs, each with its own `[ollicom_form
id="123"]` shortcode.
* Create a draft WordPress page containing a form shortcode from the form list.
* Delete a page, a form, or both together with separate confirmed actions.
* Keep the Ollicom identity visible in the WordPress admin. The optional public“
By Ollicom” credit is off by default.
#### Keep entries useful and under your control
* Save submissions in dedicated tables in your WordPress database.
* Email new entries to the address you choose. Configure SMTP and send a test email
without another mail plugin.
* Review local mail and integration-delivery logs. “Accepted” means WordPress handed
a message to its mail transport; it does not prove inbox delivery.
* Reply to a submission directly from the WordPress admin. Review the conversation
history and use the configured WordPress mail or SMTP transport.
* Ask OpenAI for an editable reply draft using the existing API key, saved knowledge
and website scan. The draft is never sent until an administrator reviews and
sends it.
* Export entries, payment references, AI answers and mail logs as CSV.
* Set automatic entry and mail-log retention, keep data on uninstall if you choose,
and use WordPress personal-data export and erasure tools.
* Reduce basic spam with a honeypot and submission throttling.
#### Accept one-time payments
* Connect your own Stripe account or PayPal Business account; keys are entered
in Ollicom Form Builder Integrations and used server-side.
* Enable a fixed one-time payment on a form. The amount and currency are stored
in the form configuration, never trusted from the visitor’s browser.
* Stripe Checkout creates a server-side session. On return, Ollicom Form Builder
checks the session, paid state, entry reference, amount and currency. An optional
signed Stripe webhook endpoint can confirm completed sessions if the visitor
closes the return page.
* PayPal uses its Orders API: Ollicom Form Builder creates an order, sends the
visitor to PayPal for approval, captures it server-side and verifies the completed
status, entry reference, amount and currency.
* Use Stripe test keys or the PayPal Sandbox to test before changing to live credentials.
Ollicom Form Builder does not handle card details. Stripe or PayPal transaction
fees and account terms apply. Review the [Stripe Services Agreement](https://stripe.com/legal/ssa),
[PayPal legal agreements](https://www.paypal.com/be/legalhub/home), [Stripe Checkout documentation](https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions)
and [PayPal Orders API documentation](https://developer.paypal.com/api/rest/integration/orders-api).
* Supported payment currencies in the editor: EUR, USD and GBP. Recurring payments
and variable-price products are not included in this release.
#### Send outbound events and spreadsheet rows
* Send successful form entries to one HTTPS webhook endpoint. Requests include
a timestamped HMAC-SHA256 signature (`X-OlliForms-Timestamp` and `X-OlliForms-
Signature`) and an idempotency key. Events are `entry.created` or `entry.paid`.
* Optionally append each successful entry to Google Sheets with a Google Apps Script
web app. The Integrations screen includes an example receiver and signature check.
The spreadsheet receives entry/form IDs, UTC timestamp, event, payment status
and the submitted values as JSON. Review the [Apps Script Content Service guide](https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/content)
and [Apps Script Additional Terms](https://developers.google.com/apps-script/terms).
* Inspect recent HTTP delivery results in the administrator-only integration log.
Ollicom Form Builder records status and safe diagnostics, not the submitted request
body.
* Webhook and Google Sheets delivery transfers form data to the endpoint or Google
account you configure. Enable these connections only after reviewing data access
and your privacy notice.
#### Optional AI tools
* Generate an editable draft form from a written brief and selected fields.
* Add business facts and response guidance, or scan up to 20 public pages on this
same website. Schedule a daily or weekly refresh.
* Enable AI replies per form and explicitly select which non-email answers may
be sent for processing. Visitors are shown a notice when AI replies are enabled.
* If the AI cannot find a reliable answer, or the AI reply email fails, Ollicom
Form Builder sends the submitter a standard receipt email and still notifies
the site administrator.
* Test the OpenAI API connection and inspect administrator-only diagnostics when
an AI request fails.
AI is optional and forms work without an API key. The site owner supplies an OpenAI
API key and pays OpenAI directly for API usage. Form generation sends the administrator’s
brief and field choices to OpenAI. An enabled AI reply sends only the fields selected
by the administrator (email fields are excluded), plus configured knowledge, instructions
and scanned website text. This content is sent to OpenAI for processing; it is not
sent to Ollicom. Ollicom Form Builder uses the knowledge as answer context and does
not fine-tune a model. See OpenAI’s [API data controls](https://openai.com/policies/api-data-usage-policies/)
and [Business Terms](https://openai.com/policies/business-terms/).
#### Integrate with WordPress
The authenticated, read-only REST API exposes forms and entries at `/wp-json/olliforms/
v1/forms` and `/wp-json/olliforms/v1/entries`. Requests require a WordPress user
with the `manage_options` capability. Use HTTPS and a WordPress Application Password;
entry responses can contain personal data.
### Privacy
Ollicom Form Builder stores form responses, administrator-written replies, and mail
and integration-delivery log records in the site’s WordPress database. The administrator
controls retention and whether saved entries and replies are preserved on uninstall.
Payment records include the provider reference, payment status, amount, currency
and form submission; Ollicom Form Builder does not collect card details. The plugin
does not collect IP addresses or browser fingerprints. SMTP credentials, payment
API credentials and shared webhook secrets are stored on the site and used server-
side. Optional OpenAI requests transfer only the administrator-selected information
described above to OpenAI. AI reply drafts are sent only when an administrator requests
a draft, and are not sent automatically. Enabling Stripe, PayPal, a webhook, or
Google Sheets sends relevant payment or form data to that provider or endpoint.
Update the site’s privacy policy to identify enabled services, purposes, retention
and lawful basis.

## Installation
1. Upload the `ollicom-form-builder` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or upload the
plugin ZIP through Plugins Add New Upload Plugin.
2. Activate Ollicom Form Builder.
3. Open Ollicom Form Builder Forms, choose a template or start from scratch, arrange
the fields and save.
4. Publish the form and copy its shortcode, for example `[ollicom_form id="123"]`,
into a page or post.
5. Set an email destination and send a test email. Configure SMTP under Ollicom Form
Builder Settings if your host’s default mail setup is unreliable.
6. To accept payments, configure Stripe or PayPal credentials under Ollicom Form Builder
Integrations, then enable a fixed one-time payment in the form editor. Start with
Stripe test mode or PayPal Sandbox.
7. To send entries to another service, configure the signed HTTPS webhook or Google
Apps Script receiver under Integrations. Review the included setup example and
update the site’s privacy notice.
8. To use AI, add an API key and test the connection. Review the privacy notice, selected
AI fields, answer knowledge and website crawl schedule before enabling AI auto-
replies.
## FAQ
### Is Ollicom Form Builder free?
Yes. Form creation, 25 templates, entries, CSV exports, mail logging, SMTP settings,
the REST API, payment integrations, webhook delivery, Google Sheets delivery and
AI tools do not require an Ollicom Form Builder paid upgrade. Stripe, PayPal and
OpenAI may charge for their own services or transactions.
### Where are form submissions stored?
In dedicated database tables on this WordPress site. Ollicom Form Builder does not
send submissions to Ollicom. If you enable email, OpenAI, a webhook or Google Sheets,
the corresponding data is sent to the service configured by the site owner.
### Does Ollicom Form Builder store payment-card details?
No. Visitors pay on Stripe Checkout or PayPal. Ollicom Form Builder stores a provider
reference, payment status, amount and currency alongside the form entry. The site
owner is responsible for the payment account, refund handling, tax configuration
and provider terms.
### How do I test payments safely?
Use Stripe test API keys and its test-mode webhook secret, or set PayPal to Sandbox
and enter Sandbox app credentials. Submit the form with the provider’s test payment
method and confirm the entry status and integration log. Switch to live credentials
only when your payment page and account are ready.
### What is the Stripe webhook endpoint?
The Integrations page shows the exact site-specific endpoint at `/wp-json/olliforms/
v1/stripe-webhook`. Add it in Stripe’s developer dashboard, copy its signing secret
into Ollicom Form Builder, and subscribe to `checkout.session.completed`; add `checkout.
session.async_payment_succeeded` if you enable delayed payment methods. Ollicom
Form Builder verifies the provider signature and matches the session to the saved
entry before processing it.
### How are outbound webhook requests signed?
Ollicom Form Builder sends JSON over HTTPS with an `X-OlliForms-Timestamp`, an `
X-OlliForms-Signature` in the form `sha256=`, and an `Idempotency-Key`.
The signature is HMAC-SHA256 of `.` using the shared
secret. Reject stale timestamps and compare signatures before processing; use the
idempotency key to avoid duplicate work.
### How do I connect Google Sheets?
Create a spreadsheet, open Extensions Apps Script, and use the example code on
Ollicom Form Builder Integrations. Set a long random shared secret, deploy the
script as a web app that executes as you, and paste its deployment URL and the same
secret into Ollicom Form Builder. Google Apps Script Content Service may redirect
its response; Ollicom Form Builder follows a small number of redirects. Restrict
access to the sheet and script deployment as appropriate for your data.
### What data is sent to OpenAI?
Form generation sends the administrator’s prompt and chosen field options. AI auto-
replies send only the fields the administrator selected for AI processing (never
the email field), the answer knowledge and instructions, and any scanned website
text. AI is opt-in per form. The visitor-facing form displays a notice when enabled.
Do not select sensitive fields unless you have a lawful basis and have explained
the processing in your privacy notice.
### Does “training” fine-tune the AI model?
No. The knowledge base, website scan and response instructions are supplied as context
for each answer request. They do not fine-tune a model.
### What happens if the AI cannot answer?
Ollicom Form Builder sends the submitter a standard “we received your message” email,
records the fallback status and reason for administrators, and sends the normal
submission notification to the administrator. If the fallback email also fails,
that failure is recorded in the mail log.
### Can I reply to a submission from WordPress?
Yes. Open Ollicom Form Builder Entries and choose Reply beside a submission. Ollicom
Form Builder shows the original entry and previous replies, then sends your message
through the configured WordPress mail or SMTP transport. You can ask OpenAI to draft
a response using your saved knowledge and website scan. The draft is editable and
is sent only after you click Send reply. Only fields explicitly marked “Share with
AI” are included in the AI request.
### How do I connect OpenAI?
Save an OpenAI API key under Ollicom Form Builder Settings and use “Test API connection”.
The key remains on this WordPress site and is used server-side. You can also define`
OLLIFORMS_OPENAI_API_KEY` in `wp-config.php`. OpenAI API charges are separate from
any ChatGPT subscription.
### How do I access the REST API?
Authenticate as a WordPress user with the `manage_options` capability, preferably
with an Application Password over HTTPS. Use `GET /wp-json/olliforms/v1/forms` to
list forms and `GET /wp-json/olliforms/v1/entries?page=1&per_page=20&form_id=123`
to read submissions. Entry data can contain personal information; do not expose
credentials or responses publicly.
### Can I make more than one form?
Yes. Create as many forms as your WordPress site needs. Each form has its own numeric
shortcode.
### Can I remove the “By Ollicom” credit?
The public credit is optional and off by default. The Ollicom brand remains visible
in the WordPress admin and plugin identity.
### Which SMTP provider should I use?
Ollicom Form Builder works with standard SMTP providers. Enter the host, port, encryption
and provider-issued credentials under Settings. Free plan limits and configuration
can change; check the current provider documentation before relying on a quota.
A successful test means the transport accepted the message, not that inbox delivery
is guaranteed.
