About this 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. It’s the ideal plugin solution for developers looking for a simple way to create a contact form or other HTML form.
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.
