    It’s not possible. Just out of curiosity, in which admin page, and where on the page, do you want to place a contact form? And why?

    Well I’d first have to figure out how to add a new admin page to WordPress, but I found a nice tutorial for that. Basically I want back-end users to use the form to send pre-set emails to people.

    So I would configure a CF7 form with let’s say [name] [email], [A] and [B].

    Then the mail functionality would deliver a message to [email] with “Hello [name], I’d like to tell you that your request for [A] has been granted provided you agree with [B]. Please let us know. Thanks!”

    Because the admin is logged into the WP back-end anyway to do stuff I thought it’d be nice and accessible to have the reply-forms there as well, rather than having to manually copy-paste a template email and manually change the [merge] fields…
    And it’s sufficiently low-scale not to involve anything like MailChimp, but the volume still does warrant some streamlining of the process.

    My alternative is to put a page behind a password on the front-end, but somehow that seems like a lot more risky that nesting it on the safety and comfort of the wp-admin.
