Descripción
Almost everyone needs a contact form for their website. But you quickly realize that it is not that easy to find a suitable plugin.
Either you end up with huge form builders that are simply too bulky for a single contact form, or you find a small plugin that doesn’t meet your requirements.
Features
Minimal Contact Form is designed to address precisely this problem:
- It is a simple contact form without a lot of extras.
- All form fields are validated and sanitized.
- You can choose to whom the emails are sent.
- The form data is sent via AJAX.
- Sending with WP Mail (SMTP) or PHP Mail is selectable.
- No annoying captchas are used for spam detection, but the honeypot method.
- Predefined GDPR-compliant messages with or without checkbox will be displayed.
- Those messages are linked directly to the privacy policy.
- In case of consent, the recipient will be informed directly in the e-mail.
- The plugin is completely translatable (English, German, Spanisch, Italian, French and Russian already available).
Requirements
- Due to the new privacy options, this plugin requires WordPress 4.9.6 or up.
- You must setup a privacy policy page in WordPress.
Translations
If you want to translate this plugin into another language, you are welcome! English, German (informal & formal), Spanish, Italian, French and Russian are already there. I used the plugin Loco Translate, but I suppose that other ways should be compatible as well.
See room for improvement?
Great! There are several ways you can get involved to help make this plugin better:

Preguntas frecuentes
If you have any questions, please use the support forum. If there are frequently asked question I will sum them up here.
-
Can I have feature X?
-
Since Minimal Contact Form is designed for ease of use, I choose new features very carefully. Also, updates should always take into account existing web pages and should not include breaking changes. Nevertheless, you are welcome to submit requests for new features.
-
Where are the styling options?
-
Minimal Contact Form is configured in such a way that you can use it without much configuration. The look of the form is kept very neutral. However, if you want to customize it, you can use the Custom CSS field in the settings. Since version
0.10.0you can also use predefined CSS variables. You can find an overview of them in the help of the plugin. -
How do I use Minimal Contact Form in Gutenberg or a builder theme?
-
Currently you can only embed Minimal Contact Form with a shortcode. However, I am working on making the plugin available as a module in Gutenberg, Divi and Breakdance in version
1.0. Help is welcome for these builders as well as for others.
