ACF Field For CF7 vs Advanced Custom Fields

Ever struggled with placing Contact Form 7 forms exactly where you want on your web site? Normally, to display a Contact Form 7 form, you need to copy a shortcode like [contact-form-7 id="123"] and paste it in the right place. One wrong character and the form breaks. If you have 10 pages with different forms, managing all those shortcodes becomes a headache. ACF Field for CF7 solves this. It adds a simple dropdown field with help of Advanced Custom Fields to your page editor that lists all your Contact Form 7 forms. Just pick the form you want and it’s done. It shows up on your page. No shortcodes to copy. No code to write. No mistakes. Before vs After This Plugin Without this plugin: 1. Create a form in Contact Form 7. 2. Copy the shortcode. 3.
