Entries For CF7

The Entries For CF7 plugin saves submissions from Contact Form 7 directly into the WordPress database and provides a convenient admin interface to view and manage those submissions.

No, this plugin requires the Contact Form 7 plugin to be installed and active. If Contact Form 7 is not active, the plugin will deactivate itself.

You can view the submissions by navigating to the “Entries” tab in the Contact Form 7 editor for each form. This tab displays the submissions in a searchable and sortable table.

Currently, the plugin focuses on displaying the data in the admin interface. Future updates may include an export feature. For now, you can manually query the database table (wp_cf7_entries) to extract the data.

If no submissions are found for a form, the plugin will display the message “No submission data found” in the Entries tab.

The plugin creates a custom database table named wp_cf7_entries (or your table prefix if different). Each submission is stored as a JSON object in the entry column, alongside the form_id.

The plugin uses WordPress object caching (wp_cache_get and wp_cache_set) to reduce database queries and improve performance, especially for frequently accessed forms.

Yes, the plugin sanitizes all inputs and uses prepared statements for database interactions to prevent SQL injection and other vulnerabilities.

Deactivating the plugin will stop its functionality. If you want to completely remove it, delete the plugin from the Plugins page. During deactivation, the database table (wp_cf7_entries) is dropped to clean up the database.

Yes, the plugin code is open source and available on GitHub. Developers can customize it as needed.
