Custom Contact Forms for WordPress Plugin Directory

New: build a form by describing it. Tell Custom Contact Forms what you need — “a booking form for a dog grooming appointment with the owner’s details and their preferred date” — and it builds it, fields, labels and all, ready to edit. It uses the AI provider already connected to your site under Settings > Connectors, so there is no API key to enter here and nothing is sent anywhere else. Requires WordPress 7.0 or later; the option stays hidden otherwise.

Custom Contact Forms lets you build forms and manage submissions entirely within WordPress. The drag-and-drop builder lives inside the media manager — no separate admin pages, no learning a new interface. Live previews update as you build, and forms can be inserted via Gutenberg block, shortcode, widget, or PHP function.

Start from a prebuilt template — contact, quote request, newsletter, event registration, or feedback — and have a working form in seconds. Or build your own from scratch with text, email, phone, address, dropdowns, checkboxes, file uploads, and more. Style it with included form themes and per-field width controls, or add your own custom CSS.

Powering thousands of active websites, with over 1.3 million all-time downloads. Originally created by Taylor Lovett, Custom Contact Forms is now actively maintained by Dmitry Alexander — rebuilt for modern WordPress with a hardened, PHP 8+ codebase, a refreshed builder, and new features added regularly.

What You Can Build

Contact forms, quote requests, support forms, event registrations, newsletter signups

Text, paragraph, email (with optional confirmation), name, phone, website, address (US + international), date/time, dropdowns, checkboxes, radio buttons, file uploads, hidden fields, and HTML blocks

Conditional fields and sections — show/hide fields based on other field values

Multiple email notifications per form — customize recipients, subject, from name, reply-to, and body with field mapping

Post creation on submission — map form fields to post fields, meta, and taxonomies
