## Description

**Thenameda Partial Form Recovery for WPForms** helps you capture incomplete form
submissions when visitors start filling out a WPForms form but leave before submitting.

The plugin integrates directly with the WPForms form builder. Enable tracking per
form, choose which fields to store, and pick the email field used to identify each
abandoned visitor.

#### Why use this plugin?

 * **Recover lost leads** — Turn incomplete visits into follow-up opportunities.
 * **Per-form control** — Enable tracking only on the forms that matter.
 * **Privacy-conscious defaults** — Sensitive field types such as file uploads, 
   payments, and signatures are not captured.
 * **No coding required** — Configure everything from the WPForms builder and WordPress
   admin.

#### Key features

 * **Per-form tracking toggle** in WPForms  Settings  Abandoned Forms
 * **Email field selection** to identify abandoned users
 * **Field allowlist** so you choose exactly which inputs are stored
 * **Automatic capture** when visitors change fields and leave the page
 * **Abandoned Users admin list** with email, IP address, and submission date
 * **Manual recovery emails** with a customizable global template
 * **Secure recovery links** with token-based URLs that pre-fill saved field values
 * **CSV export** filtered by form
 * **Automatic cleanup** when a visitor completes and submits the form

#### How it works

 1. A visitor starts filling out a WPForms form on your site.
 2. As they type, partial data is saved in the background.
 3. If they leave without submitting, an abandoned entry is stored in WordPress.
 4. You can review the entry, export it, or email the visitor a recovery link.
 5. When they return via the link, their previous answers are pre-filled.
 6. After a successful submission, the abandoned entry is removed automatically.

#### Compatibility

 * WordPress 6.2 or later (tested up to 7.0)
 * PHP 7.2 or later
 * [WPForms Lite](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpforms-lite/) 1.8.0 or later (tested
   up to 1.10.2)
 * WPForms Pro
 * Classic and modern WPForms front-end markup
 * Multipage forms

#### Privacy note

This plugin stores partial form submissions that may include personal data (such
as names and email addresses). Make sure your privacy policy explains that incomplete
form data may be collected, and only enable tracking on forms where you have a lawful
basis to do so.

## FAQ

### Does this work with WPForms Lite?

Yes. The plugin works with both WPForms Lite and WPForms Pro.

### Do I need WPForms Pro?

No. WPForms Lite is sufficient. The plugin uses its own storage for abandoned entries
and does not require the WPForms entries feature.

### Which fields are not tracked?

For security and privacy, the plugin does not capture file uploads, payment fields,
credit card fields, signatures, CAPTCHA values, or similar sensitive inputs.

### When is an entry considered abandoned?

An entry is saved when a visitor interacts with the form and then leaves the page—
for example by navigating away, closing the tab, or moving the mouse off the page—
before submitting successfully.

### Can I send recovery emails automatically?

Version 1.0.0 supports manual recovery emails from the admin. You can customize 
the default email subject and body under **Abandoned Forms  Mail Notification Settings**.

### What placeholders can I use in recovery emails?

 * `{email}` — the visitor’s email address
 * `{contact_form}` — the form title
 * `{link}` — a secure recovery URL that pre-fills saved field values

### Are recovery links secure?

Yes. Recovery URLs include a unique token. The token is verified on the server before
any data is loaded or updated.

### Can I export abandoned entries?

Yes. On the **Abandoned Forms** list screen, choose a form from the filter dropdown
and click **Export CSV**.

### Does the plugin delete entries after submission?

Yes. When a visitor successfully submits the form, the matching abandoned entry 
is removed automatically.

### Will this slow down my site?

The front-end script loads on public pages and throttles save requests to avoid 
excessive AJAX traffic.
