About this plugin
CodeMoksha Forms is a free, lightweight contact form plugin for WordPress. Build contact forms, quote requests, job applications, newsletter sign-ups, and event registration forms in minutes, protect them from spam, and send every submission straight to your inbox.
Already using Contact Form 7? The built-in one-click Contact Form 7 importer moves all of your forms over — fields, mail settings, messages, and integration keys — and rewrites your shortcodes, so nothing has to be rebuilt by hand.
Every feature is available in the free plugin. No field types, integrations, or settings are locked.
Why choose CodeMoksha Forms?
- Simple, flexible form builder — write forms with easy form-tags, or insert fields with one click. Full control over your HTML and labels.
- All the field types you need — text, email, URL, phone, textarea, number, range, date, drop-down menu, checkboxes, radio buttons, acceptance (consent) checkbox, quiz, hidden fields, character counter, and file uploads.
- Powerful email notifications — mail-tags, a second mail template for auto-replies to the sender, custom headers, HTML email, and file attachments.
- Built-in spam protection — Google reCAPTCHA v3, Akismet, a quiz field, and disallowed-list filtering.
- Accept payments — collect payments through your forms with the Stripe integration.
- Grow your email list — send new contacts to Brevo (formerly Sendinblue) automatically.
- Instant validation — client-side and server-side validation, with inline error messages and a configuration validator that catches mail problems before your visitors do.
- Block editor ready — add a form with the CodeMoksha Forms block, or paste the shortcode into any page, post, widget, or page builder.
- Lightweight and privacy-friendly — no bloat, and no external requests unless you turn an integration on.
- Translation-ready and RTL-compatible.
Switch from Contact Form 7 in one click
CodeMoksha Forms is a Contact Form 7 alternative built on a compatible form engine. Your existing form templates, mail-tags, and form IDs keep working. There is no new syntax to learn and nothing to rebuild.
- Install and activate CodeMoksha Forms.
- Go to CodeMoksha Forms → CF7 Importer.
- Select the forms you want and click Import Selected Forms.
The importer copies every form with its fields, mail and auto-reply settings, messages, and additional settings. It can also copy your reCAPTCHA, Stripe, and Brevo credentials and rewrite every [contact-form-7] shortcode on your site to [codemoksha-forms]. Imported forms keep their original hash IDs, so rewritten shortcodes point to the same forms.
Your Contact Form 7 data is never modified or deleted.
Perfect for
- Contact forms and “Get in touch” pages
- Quote and estimate requests
- Job applications with résumé upload
- Newsletter and mailing-list sign-ups
- Event registration and booking enquiries
- Payment and donation forms with Stripe
- Feedback and support request forms
Spam protection that works
