Everest Forms: A Simpler Form Plugin Than Contact Form 7

There are many WordPress form plugins, and most people are familiar with Contact Form 7. However, today NaibabijiWebsite Building Notesrecommends another simpleform plugin, Everest Forms.

Advantages of Everest Forms

Everest Forms uses a drag-and-drop method to add form fields, which is very convenient, unlike Contact Form 7 which uses code snippets. At the same time,Everest Forms supports automatically sending emails to the administrator for new form submissions and saving form records in the Admin Dashboard.Previously, I also wrote two other articles about saving form submissions to the website database:

• 2 Plugins to Save WordPress Contact Form Information to the Website's Backend Database
• WordPress Gravity Forms Gravity Forms Automatically Records Inquiries_Email Notifications

Compared to the two articles mentioned above, Everest Forms has more obvious advantages:

1. It natively supports email notifications and saving form information to the database without requiring additional components;
2. The free version can use both of the above features;
3. It has paid extension components that enable more possibilities.

The complete features of the free version of Everest Forms are as follows:

• Create unlimited forms without any restrictions
• Drag and drop form fields
• Supports all commonly used form fields, including radio buttons, dropdown menus, checkboxes, date, etc.
• 100% responsive form templates

• Multiple email notifications
• Smart tags for dynamic emails, subjects, etc.

How to Use Everest Forms

After installing Everest Forms, enable it, click 'New Form', and an option will appear allowing you to choose to create a blank template or directly create a contact form.After selecting a blank template, you can drag and drop the content you need from the supported options on the left into the dashed box on the right.By default, the free version of Everest Forms supports fields for user first name, last name, single-line text, multi-line text, dropdown, multiple choice, radio button, number, email, URL, and time. Upgrading to the Pro version allows you to add more fields, and there are also third-party extensions to enhance its functionality.Each form item can have its own frontend display text and description set, so there's no need to worry about an English website displaying Chinese content.When publishing a Post, you can directly insert the form shortcode from the editor toolbar, making it very convenient to call. You can also copy the shortcode to other places on your website where you want it to appear, such as Widgets, footers, etc.
