Multiple configurable services, custom field mapping. Provides hooks and filters for pre/post processing of results. Allows you to send separate emails, or attach additional results to existing emails. Comes with a couple examples of hooks for common CRMs (listrak, mailchimp, salesforce). Check out the FAQ section for add-on plugins that extend this functionality, like sending XML/SOAP posts, setting headers, and dynamic fields.
The plugin essentially makes a remote request (POST) to a service URL, passing along remapped form submission values.

<h3>Hooks</h3>
Please note that this documentation is in flux, and may not be accurate for latest rewrite 1.4.0
<ol>
<li><code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_a#', $response, $param_ref);</code>
<ul>
<li>hook for each service, indicated by the <code>#</code> – this is given in the ‘Hooks’ section of each service</li>
<li>provide a function which takes <code>$response, &$results</code> as arguments</li>
<li>allows you to perform further processing on the service response, and directly alter the processing results, provided as <code>array('success'=>false, 'errors'=>false, 'attach'=>'', 'message' => '');</code>
<ul>
<li>success = <code>true</code> or <code>false</code> – change whether the service request is treated as “correct” or not</li>
<li>errors = an array of error messages to return to the form</li>
<li>attach = text to attach to the end of the email body</li>
<li>message = the message notification shown (from CF7 ajax response) below the form</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>note that the basic “success condition” may be augmented here by post processing</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service', $response, $param_ref, $sid);</code>
<ul>
<li>same as previous hook, but not tied to a specific service</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_post_#, ...</code>
<ul>
<li>hook for each service, indicated by the <code>#</code> – this is given in the ‘Hooks’ section of each service</li>
<li>allows you to programmatically alter the request parameters sent to the service</li>
<li>should return updated <code>$post</code> array</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_post', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 4);</code>
<ul>
<li>in addition to service-specific with suffix <code>_a#</code>; accepts params <code>$post</code>, <code>$service</code>, <code>$form</code>, <code>$sid</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_args', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 3);</code>
<ul>
<li>alter the <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_remote_post#Parameters" rel="nofollow ugc">args array</a> sent to <code>wp_remote_post</code></li>
<li>allows you to add headers or override the existing settings (timeout, body)</li>
<li>if you return an array containing the key <code>response_bypass</code>, it will skip the normal POST and instead use that value as the 3rdparty response; note that it must match the format of a regular <code>wp_remote_post</code> response.</li>
<li>Note: if using <code>response_bypass</code> you should consider including the original arguments in the callback result for debugging purposes.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_remote_failure', 'mycf7_fail', 10, 5);</code>
<ul>
<li>
hook to modify the Form (CF7 or GF) object if service failure of any kind occurs — use like:
function mycf7_fail(&$cf7, $debug, $service, $post, $response) { 
 $cf7->skip_mail = true; // stop email from being sent 
 // hijack message to notify user 
 ///TODO: how to modify the “mail_sent” variable so the message isn’t green? on_sent_ok hack? 
 $cf7->messages[‘mail_sent_ok’] = ‘Could not complete mail request:** ‘ . $response[‘safe_message’]; 
}
</li>
<li>
needs some way to alter the <code>mail_sent</code> return variable in CF7 to better indicate an error – no way currently to access it directly.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_settings', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 3)</code>
<ul>
<li>accepts params <code>$eid</code>, <code>$P</code>, <code>$entity</code> corresponding to the index of each service entity and this plugin’s namespace, and the <code>$entity</code> settings array</li>
<li>allows you to add a section to each service admin settings</li>
<li>name form fields with plugin namespace to automatically save: <code>$P[$eid][YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]</code> $rarr; <code>Forms3rdPartyIntegration[0][YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_metabox', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 2)</code>
<ul>
<li>accepts params <code>$P</code>, <code>$entity</code> corresponding to the index of each service entity and this plugin’s namespace, and the <code>$options</code> settings array (representing the full plugin settings)</li>
<li>allows you to append a metabox (or anything else) to the plugin admin settings page</li>
<li>name form fields with plugin namespace to automatically save: <code>$P[YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]</code> $rarr; <code>Forms3rdPartyIntegration[YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_debug_message', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 5);</code>
<ul>
<li>bypass/alternate debug logging</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_plugin_hooks', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 1);</code>
<ul>
<li>Accepts an array of contact form plugin hooks to attach F3p to, and returns that array. Modify result to attach to additional plugin hooks, like GF edit.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_url', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 2);</code>
<ul>
<li>hook a function that takes the <code>$service_url, $post_args</code> and returns the endpoint <code>$url</code></li>
<li>used to modify the submission url based on mappings or other information</li>
<li><code>$post_args</code> contains the <code>body</code> and other <code>wp_remote_post</code> details</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
Basic examples provided for service hooks directly on plugin Admin page (collapsed box “Examples of callback hooks”). Code samples for common CRMS included in the <code>/3rd-parties</code> plugin folder.

 We work to earn the right to be a trusted partner. One that you can turn to for professional help in strategizing, developing, executing, and maintaining your Internet presence. 
 We take a holistic view. Even if a project is small, our work should integrate into the big picture. We craft web architecture and designs that become winning websites that are easy to use and to share. We custom build social network footprints on sites like linkedin, facebook, twitter, youtube, flickr, yelp!, and google places and integrate them into your website to leverage social marketing. We help you set up and execute email campaigns, with search engine marketing, with photography, with site copy and content and anything else that you need in order to have a successful Internet presence. 
 Through this holistic approach, we work with clients to grow their sales, improve their brand recognition, and manage their online reputation.

Forms: 3rd-Party Integration

I've used this plugin on several occasions to tie both CF7 and Gravity Form implementations with LassoCRM among several other services that don't have an official integration.

Definitely a must-have w/ CF7 or GravityForms

I have tested with Salesforce and it works fine.

Thanks.

Great

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.
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.
Works with Divi 4 & 5, the WordPress block editor, Elementor, and Bricks.
<a href="https://cf7mate.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Product site</a> · <a href="https://cf7mate.com/docs" rel="nofollow ugc">Documentation</a> · <a href="https://cf7mate.com/pricing" rel="nofollow ugc">Pricing</a> · <a href="https://github.com/plugpressco/cf7-styler-for-divi" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub</a>
<h4>AI Form Generator (free)</h4>
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.
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.
Useful for contact forms, booking forms, surveys, NPS questionnaires, quote requests, job applications, and anything else you’d normally build by hand.
<h4>Visual styling that lives in your builder</h4>
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.
The integrations are real builder modules, not generic shortcode wrappers, so they pick up your theme’s global colors, presets, and breakpoints automatically.
<h4>Extra field types CF7 doesn’t ship</h4>
<ul>
<li>Star rating for reviews, feedback, and CSAT-style questions.</li>
<li>Range slider for budgets, quantities, and quote calculators.</li>
<li>International phone number with a country flag picker and dial-code prefixing.</li>
<li>Heading, separator, image, and icon decorative elements to break up long forms.</li>
</ul>
Each one is registered as a real CF7 form tag — the values land in your notification emails like any built-in field.
<h4>Grid layout for CF7</h4>
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.
<h4>Pro features</h4>
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:
<ul>
<li>Multi-step forms — split long forms into a guided wizard so visitors don’t bounce.</li>
<li>Conditional logic — show, hide, or skip fields and steps based on what the user enters.</li>
<li>Form entries — save every submission to your own WordPress database with search, filter, and CSV export. Never lose a lead to a missed email.</li>
<li>Form analytics — per-form views, submissions, and conversion rate, stored locally, no third-party tracker.</li>
<li>Form scheduling — open and close any form on a date/time window with a custom closed-state message.</li>
<li>Conditional email routing — send notifications to different recipients based on what the user picked.</li>
<li>Save and continue later — let visitors resume long forms from an email link.</li>
<li>Style presets — save a styled form as a reusable preset and apply it to other forms in one click.</li>
<li>White label (Agency plan) — replace CF7 Mate branding with your own for client sites.</li>
</ul>
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.
<h4>Who this is for</h4>
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.
<h4>Privacy</h4>
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.
<h4>Source</h4>
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.
