Frequently Asked Questions

Does it works for emails sent out of CF7?

No. The intention here is to improve CF7 functionality.
We’ll create another version to all WordPress emails or add an option to extend this plugin, but not in this version.

I don’t like the new editor. How to disable it?

You can add the following code to your functions.php file:

add_filter( 'cf7hete-disable-ace-editor', '__return_true' );
