<p>Many themes, as well as other plugins, provide shortcodes for layout options like multi-column-layouts, tabs, etc.</p>
<p>By default, Contact Form 7 forms can not include shortcodes provided by WordPress or third-party-plugins or -themes.<br />
It only processes its own shortcodes used to generate form elements.</p>
<p>This plugin enables the usage of external shortcodes inside Contact Form 7 Forms.</p>

<p>Contact Form 7 is rock-solid but plain. CF7 Mate fills in the parts most people end up writing CSS or shopping around for: a clean visual styler that lives inside your page builder, an AI generator that writes a working CF7 form from a one-sentence description, and a few extra field types CF7 doesn’t ship — star ratings, range sliders, an international phone field.</p>
<p>Nothing replaces CF7. You still build and manage forms in the regular CF7 editor. CF7 Mate just makes the result look the way you want and adds the things power users keep asking for.</p>
<p>Works with <strong>Divi 4 & 5</strong>, the <strong>WordPress block editor</strong>, <strong>Elementor</strong>, and <strong>Bricks</strong>.</p>

<h4>AI Form Generator (free)</h4>
<p>Describe the form you want in plain English — “a booking form with name, date, time slot, and a notes box” — and CF7 Mate writes the Contact Form 7 markup for you. The result is a normal CF7 form you can save, edit field-by-field, or extend with any other CF7 plugin. There’s no proprietary format and no lock-in.</p>
<p>You bring your own OpenAI (or compatible) API key. Generation costs a fraction of a cent per form, and your key is stored only in your own WordPress database.</p>
<p>Useful for contact forms, booking forms, surveys, NPS questionnaires, quote requests, job applications, and anything else you’d normally build by hand.</p>
<h4>Visual styling that lives in your builder</h4>
<p>Open a CF7 form inside Divi, Elementor, Bricks, or the WordPress block editor and you get the same point-and-click styling controls you already use for the rest of your page — colors, typography, spacing, focus states, responsive breakpoints. No CSS file to maintain, no shortcode to remember.</p>
<p>The integrations are real builder modules, not generic shortcode wrappers, so they pick up your theme’s global colors, presets, and breakpoints automatically.</p>
<h4>Extra field types CF7 doesn’t ship</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Star rating</strong> for reviews, feedback, and CSAT-style questions.</li>
<li><strong>Range slider</strong> for budgets, quantities, and quote calculators.</li>
<li><strong>International phone number</strong> with a country flag picker and dial-code prefixing.</li>
<li><strong>Heading</strong>, <strong>separator</strong>, <strong>image</strong>, and <strong>icon</strong> decorative elements to break up long forms.</li>
</ul>
<p>Each one is registered as a real CF7 form tag — the values land in your notification emails like any built-in field.</p>
<h4>Grid layout for CF7</h4>
<p>Arrange fields into responsive multi-column rows so your forms don’t look like a stack of inputs on desktop. Per-breakpoint column counts mean a 3-column lead form on desktop still stacks cleanly on phones.</p>
<h4>Pro features</h4>
<p>The Pro plan (<a href="https://cf7mate.com/pricing" rel="nofollow ugc">cf7mate.com/pricing</a>) adds the heavyweight features most form-building plugins charge extra for:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Multi-step forms</strong> — split long forms into a guided wizard so visitors don’t bounce.</li>
<li><strong>Conditional logic</strong> — show, hide, or skip fields and steps based on what the user enters.</li>
<li><strong>Form entries</strong> — save every submission to your own WordPress database with search, filter, and CSV export. Never lose a lead to a missed email.</li>
<li><strong>Form analytics</strong> — per-form views, submissions, and conversion rate, stored locally, no third-party tracker.</li>
<li><strong>Form scheduling</strong> — open and close any form on a date/time window with a custom closed-state message.</li>
<li><strong>Conditional email routing</strong> — send notifications to different recipients based on what the user picked.</li>
<li><strong>Save and continue later</strong> — let visitors resume long forms from an email link.</li>
<li><strong>Style presets</strong> — save a styled form as a reusable preset and apply it to other forms in one click.</li>
<li><strong>White label</strong> (Agency plan) — replace CF7 Mate branding with your own for client sites.</li>
</ul>
<p>Everything stays inside the standard CF7 workflow. Pro doesn’t fork CF7 or hide your data — entries live in your database, schedules in post meta, analytics in your database.</p>
<h4>Who this is for</h4>
<p>Anyone who uses Contact Form 7 and wants modern styling, smarter forms, or both. We hear most often from agencies and freelancers building branded forms for clients, service businesses capturing leads, and event organizers running registration windows.</p>
<h4>Privacy</h4>
<p>The free plugin sends nothing off your site. The AI generator sends only your design prompt (not user submissions) to the AI provider you configure. The Pro license check exchanges your license key with our licensing server — no form data, no submissions. Form Entries stores submissions only in your own database.</p>
<h4>Source</h4>
<p>The free plugin is open source: <a href="https://github.com/plugpressco/cf7-styler-for-divi" rel="nofollow ugc">github.com/plugpressco/cf7-styler-for-divi</a>. Issues and PRs welcome.</p>
