Message Bridge for Contact Form 7 and VK sends Contact Form 7 submissions to VKontakte users through a connected VK community. The number of VK recipients is not limited by the plugin: users subscribe to messages from the connected community, and the community acts as the notification bridge. To set up delivery: Create a VK community that will send the notifications. In the VK community settings, open Community management > Messages and enable community messages. Open Advanced > API usage, go to the LongPoll API tab, enable LongPoll API, and select API version 5.199 from the dropdown. Switch to Event types and enable Incoming messages. Open the Access keys tab and create a community access token with permission to use community messages. Open the Callback API tab and copy the group_id value. In the plugin interface, click Create Bot. Enter the Group ID, save the access token, or use the Copy PHP const controls to keep these values in PHP constants. Then wait for the bot status to become online. Configured and working bots are shown in blue. Ask each VK recipient to open the community messages and send start to the community. Approve or reject each subscription request in the plugin interface. Create a channel in the plugin interface to connect specific Contact Form 7 forms with the VK bot/community that should send their notifications.

External Services VK API This plugin connects to the VK API to verify the configured community, request Bots Long Poll bootstrap data, load user and conversation details for connected dialogs, and send Contact Form 7 notifications to VK dialogs. When an administrator verifies or syncs a connection, the plugin sends the configured community ID, community access token, API version, and the identifiers required for the requested VK API call, such as peer IDs, conversation message IDs, and user IDs. When a Contact Form 7 submission is delivered, the plugin sends the destination dialog peer ID and the formatted notification text. That notification text can include the form title, mail subject, and submitted field values.

When an administrator runs dialog sync, the plugin sends the current Long Poll server key and timestamp issued by VK. VK returns new community message events and related dialog metadata, which can include peer IDs, sender IDs, conversation message IDs, message text, and chat titles.
