Thank You Page Feature When a contact form is set to use the Thank You Page and the user submits the form, it will send the Contact Form 7 email as usual, then redirect the user to the Thank You Page. This Thank You Page is not an actual “page” on your site, meaning form-specific data can be shown on this page without being visible to other users or indexed by search engines. URL Redirect Feature When a contact form is set to redirect to a URL and the user submits the form, it will send the Contact Form 7 email as usual, then redirect the user to the specified URL. PayPal & Stripe Payments Accept one-time payments through PayPal or Stripe directly from your contact forms. When a user submits a form with payments enabled, the email is sent as usual, then the user is redirected to complete payment. All payments are tracked in a dedicated admin area where you can view transaction status, amounts, and payment details. Google reCAPTCHA v2 Protect your forms from spam with Google reCAPTCHA v2 verification. When enabled for a form, users must complete the reCAPTCHA challenge before submitting. Configure your site key and secret key in the settings, then enable reCAPTCHA on individual forms. Customize the theme (light or dark) and position (above or below submit button). Country & Phone Fields Add country dropdown and international phone number fields to your forms. The country field displays a searchable dropdown with country flags. The phone field includes a dial code selector that automatically formats phone numbers with the correct international prefix. Configure default countries, include/exclude specific countries, and set preferred countries to appear at the top of the list. Database Submissions Store all form submissions in your WordPress database for easy access and management. View submissions organized by form, search through entries, and export data to CSV. Each submission captures all form fields along with the submission date. Delete individual entries or export entire datasets for reporting. Bookings & Appointments Add date and time picker fields to your forms for appointment scheduling. Configure available days and hours, set slot durations, and define minimum advance booking time. The system prevents double-bookings by tracking confirmed appointments. Set unavailable dates for holidays or closures. Material Design Theme Apply beautiful Material Design styling to your Contact Form 7 forms. Enable per-form and customize the primary color, background color, and vertical spacing. Optional floating labels provide a modern input experience. The styling is applied via CSS classes so it won’t conflict with your theme.

Easy Booking Calendar for WooCommerce adds date-based bookings to your product pages. Customers select their dates, and the plugin calculates the booking price using your product price and the number of days or nights. Use it for room stays, equipment rentals, or other products booked by date. Configure your calendar under Products > Booking Calendar, then enable Bookable on each product you want to offer for booking. Each booking appears as one line item, with its dates and duration shown separately from quantity. Dates are reserved when an order reaches Processing or Completed and released when that order is cancelled, unless double bookings are enabled. Free features Add a booking calendar to your products. Calculate prices by day or night. Choose available dates and how far ahead customers can book. Block booked dates, or allow multiple bookings on the same dates. View booked dates and their orders in the product editor. Show booking dates and duration in the cart, checkout, and orders. Choose calendar colors, themes, language, and date format. Show the calendar only to logged-in customers if needed. Customize the calendar heading and booking button text. Easy Booking Calendar Pro Need weekend prices or different available dates for each product? The paid Pro version adds: Raise or lower prices by a fixed amount for selected dates or date ranges. Set different prices for weekends or other weekdays. Drag pricing rules to choose which takes priority. Set available dates separately for each product. Reopen individual booked dates without cancelling the whole booking. Show customers their booking total before adding to cart. Show a price breakdown when booked dates have different prices. Allow single-date bookings and choose Monday or Sunday as the start of the week. For example, charge more on summer weekends or offer a lower price on quieter dates. Pro is optional; the free version supports date-range bookings without a paid license. Explore Easy Booking Calendar Pro and pricing →.
