10 Awesome WordPress Contact Form Plugins

Posted in Tools | On 11th December 2009 | 12 Comments

When designing or running a site its important that users have some way of contacting the site owner, you can just use the mailto: option but using a form is so much easier for users and looks more professional.

A major concern for site owners is the quantity of spam that contact forms can generate, to combat this a captcha is always something you should look at implementing and of course Askimet is a must for any blog.

I have listed 10 awesome contact form plugins for Wordpress below, there are a few of the more common ones listed such as cformsII and Contact Form 7, but there are a few others you might not have heard of that are equally as effective.

    Nice but would be even nicer if you would have written something about pros and cons or at least a brief description of the various plugins.

    Agree with Michael Oeser. The article topic is interesting, but just listing the alternatives without comments was a disappointment for me.

    Sorry folks I was almost certain I added a brief description with each, I was forced to publish from my iPhone this morning as I was travelling. :(

    Agree with Lars and Michael. By the way Michael, any plans for a new wordpress theme in the future?

    Hi McBonio,

    I think that it would be good if you’d include information about TDO Mini Forms. Along with the functionalities you referred above included in the other plug-ins, TDO offers a full range of features, including the ability of sending a form directly as a post entry (in a moderation list). It has lots and lots of configurable options.

    Bye and thanks for the post.
    Regards
    Antonio
