<h4>Display form submissions in dashboard</h4>
<p>Via the settings page you can activate form submissions being stored and displayed in your dashboard.</p>
<p>After activation go to menu item “Submissions”. Your form submissions will be listed here.</p>
<h4>SMTP</h4>
<p>SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is an internet standard for sending emails.</p>
<p>By default, WordPress uses the PHP <code>mail()</code> function for sending emails. But when using SMTP there’s less chance your form submissions are being marked as spam.</p>
<p>You must install an additional plugin for this, such as <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/" rel="ugc">WP mail SMTP</a>.</p>
<h4>Cache</h4>
<p>If you’re using a caching plugin and want to avoid conflicts with the contact form, exclude your contact page from caching. This can be done via the settings page of most caching plugins.</p>
<h4>Have a question?</h4>
<p>Please take a look at the FAQ section.</p>
<h4>Translation</h4>
<p>Translations are not included, but the plugin supports WordPress language packs.</p>
<p>More <a href="https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/very-simple-contact-form" rel="nofollow ugc">translations</a> are very welcome!</p>
<p>The translation folder inside this plugin is redundant, but kept for reference.</p>
<h4>Credits</h4>
<p>Without help and support from the WordPress community I was not able to develop this plugin, so thank you!</p>

<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>
