 * Hi,
    Sorry for my english, i’m french 😉 I would like to know if it’s possible
   to add a form name when i create a form with Contact Form 7? For example, i have
   this code in my form : <form action=”###” method=”post” class=”wpcf7-form”> And
   i just want to add somehting like that : “<form name=”form_1″ action=”###” method
   =”post” class=”wpcf7-form”>
 * Can you tell me if it’s possible?
    Thx,
 * Antoine

 * Antoine,
 * When you create a new form (**Dashboard>Contact>Add New**), at the top of the
   screen, you will see **Untitled** in bold. Enter the name you want and continue
   designing the form.
 * If you want change the name of a existing form to something more meaningful to
   you, click Contact and Edit under the form in question. The form will enter in
   design mode. At the top of the screen, you will see something like this ‘[contact-
   form-7 id=”451″ title=”Event-Activity Form”]’ with a brown background. Simply
   click on the text following the ‘title=’ and enter the name you want.
 * Make sure you click the **Save** button.

 * You are looking at the html code of the form. That is NOT where you change the
   form name. You need to change from the WordPress dashboard as I indicated above.

 * antaspen, so you want to edit the `name` attribute of the `form` element, right?
   Contact Form 7 doesn’t provide a setting for that, but could you tell me the 
   reason why you need to edit it? What do you use it for?
