An Enduring Classic – True Open Source Samurai Spirit

By hefin on June 13, 2025

Contact Form 7 has been a mainstay on millions of WordPress sites for good reason. It’s a remarkably capable and reliable contact form plugin—virtually bulletproof in performance.

What truly deserves recognition is the developer's commitment to keeping it free and open. Over the years, it has evolved with powerful features and deep integrations with other plugins, all while staying true to the open-source ethos of WordPress.

In a world where many would have monetized a user base of this scale—through premium add-ons, ads, or feature restrictions—the creator of Contact Form 7 has consistently chosen integrity over profit.

Massive respect to Takayuki Miyoshi, the brilliant Japanese developer behind this plugin. The craftsmanship, transparency, and dedication he continues to show is rare in today’s plugin ecosystem. I, for one, bow in appreciation.

easy simple but open to spam...

By amiens80 on May 15, 2025

hi,

i use contact form 7 6.0.6 free, preinstalled with my template on WP6 php 8.3.

Ok it is very basic and easy to use it and make a quick form.

But, since i installed the WP SMTP plugin, i can track and discover the SPAM and i see that a lot of spams was send from the forms build with CT7 ...

We also installed and try another form generator (the one with bear logo, to not say the brand), and no spam go out from there. So only CT7 is a opendoor to spam...

Also there is important missing feature : we cannot disabled a form in the interface, we need to erase it from the page where it is integrated (or comment it). It would be glade to have a enable/disable checkbox in the interface where all the forms are listed..

Best regards

CF7 is the best

Being a developer, I always use this plugin.

Nice Plugin for form submissions.

Nice Plugin for form submission. It is easy to use and customizable.

It's a shame about the poor support and the few solutions and updates.

By sergirogg on May 6, 2025

It's a shame that this plugin, which I've been using forever, doesn't have adequate support or offer real, lasting solutions to the changes that occur in environments like Google reCaptcha.

Simple form that is really useful

By meyadam11 on April 23, 2025

I love simple form like this. Doesn't really mind the UI because I feel like it gives us a lot of power to edit, and that's matter for me. Doesn't take me a lot of time to explore the functionality since I don't need to navigate around settings much. It's actually easy to add any field since they provide form-tag generator. The FAQs and Docs also help.

Thank you.

Just the best contact form ever

Awesome Form Plugin

By Quotes Ninja (quotesninja) on March 29, 2025

I think this plugin does not need any recognition because every wordpress developer used this plugin in their form projects once.

Sadly, no emails received (due to the rigid rules)

By TKO (Taka-shi) on February 17, 2025

I noticed no email has been sent for these years. I spent a lot of time tweaking the Mail Setting due to the rigid rules that won't accept email addresses with different URLs, but nothing worked. I have switched to Ninja Forms. While my website using this plugin is not my primary one, I am so sad that I haven't received any emails because of this plugin.
