<p>There are many contact form plugins available for WordPress. These plugins tend to be highly configurable in order to produce complex forms. They typically require substantial effort to configure even for the simplest contact form. These plugins cater to a large user base with infinite data collection needs.</p>
<p>This is the opposite of those plugins.</p>
<p>The <strong>Micro Contact Form</strong> plugin for WordPress is a lightweight and simple contact form plugin that requires no configuration and produces a four-field form allowing a user to submit a message to the blog administrator directly through the website. The form only collects the most basic information needed for a message. When the form is submitted, the information is e-mailed through the website to the blog administrator’s e-mail address.</p>
<p>Simply add the shortcode <strong>[micro_contact_form]</strong> to a new or existing page or post. The contact form is displayed on the page or post and any message submissions are sent to the blog administrator’s e-mail address as specified in the WordPress site settings. The look and feel of the contact form can be adjusted by adding custom CSS styles to your theme.</p>
<p>The <strong>Micro Contact Form</strong> plugin works well as a way for your readers to connect with you without providing your own e-mail address directly on the site.</p>
<p>Features include:</p>
<ul>
<li>No configuration required.</li>
<li>E-mails are sent using wp-mail (SMTP); compatible with other SMTP bypass plugins.</li>
<li>No database tables are created by the plugin.</li>
<li>Compatible with the <strong>Analytical Spam Filter</strong> plugin to block spam messages.</li>
</ul>
<p>Micro Contact Form collects:</p>
<ul>
<li>Message subject</li>
<li>Message content</li>
<li>From Name</li>
<li>Return e-mail address</li>
</ul>
<p>Options include:<br />
* Change the displayed labels for the name, e-mail, subject and message fields as well as the submit button.<br />
* Change the required field indicator.<br />
* Change the e-mail address receiving the form submissions.<br />
* Add information to the form submission subject.</p>

<p>The lightweight plugin “Add infos to the events calendar” provides a shortcode block (image copyright, button with link to events with a special category, link to the website of the organizer) to single events for The Events Calendar Free Plugin (by MODERN TRIBE)<br />
The path to The Events Calendar (TEC) categories is automatically suggested during installation. To be on the safe side, however, you should check this by going to the relevant event after using the shortcut and checking that the links are executed correctly.<br />
As a rule, the short code (description and examples see below) should be one of the last lines of a single event. However, the short code can also be used in principle in posts. In this case, you should usually not use the option “vl”, because this option refers to events, unless you want to link to a specific category in a contribution on events, for example.<br />
Automatically displays the text from “Caption” (see Media, image details) in italics by default for an event or a post. A copyright notice should be entered in this field.</p>
<h4>Attention</h4>
<p>If the plugin is deleted, the shortcode remains in the posts and events. In this case use a plugin to delete the shortcodes, e.g. Shortcode Cleaner Lite (see wordpress.org). However, there is no guarantee that all shortcodes will be deleted correctly.</p>
<h4>Shortcode – Options</h4>
<ol>
<li>link = link e.g. to organizer</li>
<li>vl   = list of events</li>
<li>il   = e.g. used for internal link</li>
</ol>
<h4>Call Examples</h4>
<ul>
<li>[fuss link=”https://externer_link.de” vl=””] –> always shows picture credits, then more info with the link to external website and at vl=”” the link to “more events”.</li>
<li>[fuss vl=””] –> always shows picture credits, but no link to external website and at vl=”” the link to “more events”.</li>
<li>[fuss] –> always shows picture credits, but no link to external website.</li>
<li>[fuss link=”https://externer_link.de” vl=”nature”] –> always shows picture credits, then more info with the link to external website and at vl=”Nature” the link to “more events: nature”.<br />
(of course the category must exist in The Events Calendar (this is checked by a function). If the category does not exist, the event list will be shown.)</li>
<li>[fuss vl=”” il=”http://internal_link.de/example”] –> always shows picture credits, but no link to external website and at vl=”” the link to “more events” and at il=”http://internal_link.de/example” the link to another external or internal webesite.</li>
</ul>
