Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

The plugin allows you to add a feedback form or booking form to the page. The data is sent to the server via AJAX ( this can be disabled using the settings and the form will be submitted as usual, with a page reload… but why do you need it? ).

You can flexibly personalize the form and its fields.

The form is added to a page using the Gutenberg Custom Blocks – with these blocks, the possibilities for customizing your form are greatly increased.

You can also add a form to a page using the shortcode [zu-contact] or [zu-booking].
