* There was a thread that was started two years ago, and closed without resolution
one year ago (with recent “me too” type posts still in it), asking if there would
be support added for HTML5 input types.
* I would like to reopen this conversation. Being able to use an email input type
for contact forms that are expected to be used on mobile platforms is important,
because it tips the OS off to provide a keyboard with the @ symbol available
on the top level. Etc.
* I’ve been using CF7 for quite a long time, but I’m searching around for alternatives
at this point. I don’t understand why this has languished for so long. I may
be missing something, but it seems like a pretty straightforward addition to
the code.
* What is the status of this request?

* I’ve seen those old threads too and agree that it would be great if HTML5 input
types were added to this fine plugin.

* Yay, yay, yay, yay! Looks like our wishes have been granted! I’ll be updating
and looking at the results later today. TYSM!
