HTML Forms free WordPress plugin

With HTML Forms, you can easily add multi-purpose forms to your WordPress site. The idea behind HTML Forms is different than most other form builder plugins: You manage the form HTML. The plugin manages the PHP and a tiny bit of JavaScript. That’s right. No “intuitive” drag & drop interface. We believe that dynamic form builders can be great, but they also severely limit your options. Also, they’re slow and overly complicated from a technical point of view. HTML Forms aims to be simpler, faster and smarter. You define your form fields in HTML and the plugin takes care of submitting the form, saving the data and running a configurable set of form actions. 1. Define your form fields You can use anything that is valid HTML. Just ensure all input elements in your form have a name attribute to save the data entered in that field. 2. Configure your form actions By default, form submissions are automatically saved for you. You can configure several other actions to run when a form is submitted, like sending an email notification or subscribing to Mailchimp. 3. Show the form somewhere on your site Show your form by using the [hf_form] shortcode in your WordPress posts, pages or widget areas. HTML Forms features Full control over the HTML for the form fields. If you want, we’ll help you in generating the field HTML though. Each form submission is automatically saved in your database and can be viewed in a simple table format. Configure an unlimited amount of actions to run when a form is successfully submitted. For example, sending out email notifications. Access form field values by referencing the field name, eg [NAME] or [EMAIL]. Hide form or redirect to URL after a successful submission. Configurable & translatable form messages. Field validation. Developer friendly. HTML Forms comes with a myriad of JavaScript events and WordPress hooks that allow you to modify or extend the plugin’s default behavior. Who is this for?
