Mailto Link Form lets you build contact forms that continue in the visitor’s email app. Key features: * Create and manage multiple forms in wp-admin. * Configure To, Subject, and Body Template per form. * Map values into body placeholders such as {{your_field_key}}. * Embed forms anywhere with a shortcode. This plugin does not send email directly from your server. It generates a mailto: URL and opens the user’s default email app. Usage Go to Mailto Forms and create a form. Configure recipient email, subject, body template, and select fields. Place shortcode like [mailto_link_form id="123"] into a page.
