<p>This is a basic emailer and shortcode, designed to display a mail form for a contact page. It will post a<br />
plaintext email to a provided email address.</p>
<h3>Shortcode</h3>
<p>The shortcode generated for your account will look like<br />
‘[plainmail header=”a header” mailto=”your_account_name”](introductory text)[/plainmail]’.</p>
<p>Place that shortcode into a page to generate an email form for the email you associated with that account. Between the [plainmail][/plainmail] tags you can put some introductory text for the form. Note that anything<br />
here will be escaped, so html will not render.</p>
<h3>Administration</h3>
<p>When a message is sent to you, you will see the email headers appear in the settings area. The body of the message itself is not saved. Headers are set by default to auto-delete after 24 hours but you can also delete headers manually. Only up to<br />
50 headers will be displayed.</p>


WordPress Plain Mail

Display an email form and send plaintext emails through a shortcode.

Contact Form 7

I recommend this plugin. It's easy to use, both technical and non-technical and, most importantly, works as expected.

Recommended.


Unlike version 5.6.4 [ prnt.sc/6jnDIye9Dva4 ], update 5.7.1 continues to wrap "p" markup inside "div" and "td" [ prnt.sc/N7I5StxLCtVy ]. 



It breaks the appearance of the forms.


Update 5.7.1 continues to wrap markup inside and

This has never failed


We've been using this plugin for years with many clients. What we like about it is that if things go awry, it's almost always not the plugin that's caused the issue but instead the mail sending setup on the Wordpress installation. We also like that the plugin sporadically asks the admin to check / validate the forms for any issues.


Our go-to form plugin


It's a must have tool. We use it all the time in our agency!


Must have


Unbelivable stupid ReCaptch integration, why you require to use only Invisible Recaptcha ??? I want to use the checkbox because with the invisible all messages are SPAM no matter what I write!!!!


ReCaptcha


For someone who develops web pages from scratch like me, this is definitely the best and most configurable solution. Everything works flawlessly and it's free!



Thanks to the developer for a great plugin!


The most flexible contact form!


I absolutely love Contact Form 7. As a professional developer with clients at every price point, I still prefer it over the premium plugins because of how simple and versatile it is. It embodies the concept of plugins in that it only provides the functionality you need and if you want more, there's a plugin for that! Absolutely versatile and I personally love making add-ons for CF7!


Best contact form plugin for WordPress


I do not use many plugins but this is one of 2-3 essentials


The best plugin for contact form


What a useless developer. Can not reply to support requests!!!support/topic/add-a-code-to-validation-class-please


Useless Support


This free plugin is very useful and has done what it was supposed to do for many years. However, there are a few issues that are very annoying and a total deal breaker, if not a show stopper:




Plugin creator did not comply with WordPress Codex regarding how translations are handled. Thus this plugin will eventually cause problems in a multilingual site.



Forum support by plugin creator is very poor. He replies, yes, but his replies are a joke. He simply doesn't care. He doesn't read properly nor does he do any testing, even after providing everything he asked for. He is a time stealer.




My personal resume: I will switch contact forms on all of my clients' sites. There are better alternatives out there. I am of course willing to pay for support. And this is my suggestion for @takayukister : provide paid support, if you think your time is too valuable, to give a useful reply or provide assistance with your free plugin. Or take that plugin offline or officially state that you won't provide support at all and refrain from stealing people's time by requesting non sense things and then ignoring them in return.


Translation issue and nightmare support.

All time best

Just another contact form plugin. Simple but flexible.
