Build WordPress forms with drag-and-drop layouts, reusable fields, conditional logic, and a fully themable presentation layer.

griffinforms

GriffinForms is a full-featured WordPress form builder — no upsells, no hidden costs. From simple contact forms to advanced multi-step surveys, GriffinForms gives you every tool you need right out of the box. Recent updates add a smart Phone field with live flag detection, a comprehensive Address field with component-level validations, a polished Terms & Conditions consent field with modal support, a secure Password field with strength meter, confirmation, and optional encryption, a glowing Conditional Logic workspace — and now a full Theme Designer with 40+ handcrafted presets.
Build visually with an intuitive drag-and-drop editor, organize with pages, rows, and columns, and add smart validations to keep entries clean. Securely accept file uploads with per-field limits, validation rules, and storage controls — all built in.
Design every pixel with the new Theme Designer — browse 46 ready-made looks, preview them live inside the builder, and craft your own with JSON-driven controls for colors, typography, spacing, borders, states, and even per-theme CSS and JavaScript. Themes automatically load Google Fonts on both the admin and frontend, adapt layouts to cramped widget areas, and can be imported/exported as portable JSON files for sharing across sites.
Responsive overrides now watch each form’s rendered width and apply lightweight <code>gf-xs / gf-sm / gf-md / gf-lg</code> classes, so columns, button groups, checkbox grids, and address fields reflow intelligently inside narrow sidebars, popups, or mobile screens without relying on global media queries.
As a full WordPress form builder, GriffinForms includes everything: conditional logic, multi-page layouts, reusable fields, and strong spam protection — all without premium tiers.
GriffinForms is built for speed, flexibility, and ease of use. You’ll enjoy: 
– Multi-page forms that make long forms engaging and easy to complete 
– Reusable fields you can update once and use anywhere 
– Smart phone capture with live country flags, min/max digit rules, and country-code validation 
– Address field with editable sub-labels, smart country filters, and automatic state/province dropdowns for many countries (US, CA, GB, IN, FR, DE, IT, ES, CH, AU, NZ, ZA, SA, AE, BR, JP, CN) 
– Branded emails with your own headers, footers, and reliable delivery through SMTP or SendGrid 
– Strong spam protection with reCAPTCHA, honeypot, and keyword filtering 
– Rate limiting and file storage management for peace of mind at scale
<blockquote>
All functionality ships in the base plugin; no paid upgrades or gated features.

GriffinForms also includes a logging system so you always know what’s happening, and a sleek Attachments view where you can browse every uploaded file with icons, filters, and direct links to submissions.
Whether you’re replacing a bloated premium plugin or building your first form, GriffinForms is designed to just work — fast, clean, and powerful.
