Overview

About this plugin

Neural Forms is a WordPress form plugin with a built-in lead inbox. Build forms with drag and drop, manage submissions in an email-style inbox, and let AI analyze every entry and draft your replies.

Most form plugins stop at collecting submissions. Neural Forms starts there. Every submission lands in your lead inbox with a status, a star, and (optionally) an AI-generated summary, category, priority score, and a draft reply ready to send.

AI Analysis for Your Submissions

100 free AI credits included on signup. Connect your free Neural Forms API key, open any entry in the inbox and click “Analyze with Neural AI” to get:

  • An AI-assigned category (inquiry, support, sales, and more)
  • A priority score (0 to 100)
  • A drafted reply ready to review and send

In the free plugin each entry can be analyzed once, on demand. Automatic analysis of every new submission, re-analysis, and regenerated or polished drafts are part of Neural Forms Pro.

Source Code and Build Instructions

Neural Forms ships pre-built JavaScript and CSS files in modules/admin/build/ so the plugin works on a clean WordPress install without a Node toolchain. The compiled/generated files are:

  • modules/admin/build/index.js: admin React SPA (Forms, Entries, Stats, Settings)
  • modules/admin/build/index.css and modules/admin/build/index-rtl.css: admin styles
  • modules/admin/build/block.js: Gutenberg block ( neural-forms/form ) editor script
  • modules/admin/build/index.asset.php and modules/admin/build/block.asset.php: auto-generated WordPress dependency manifests

The complete, human-readable source for every generated file above is included inside this plugin package under:

  • modules/admin/src/: React + CSS source (admin SPA entry, block entry, screens, components, styles)
  • modules/admin/package.json: npm dependency list and build scripts
  • modules/admin/package-lock.json: exact dependency versions (lockfile)

-

js: webpack configuration (extends @wordpress/scripts )

js and the modules it imports. js. js.

No obfuscation, packing, or encoding step is applied.

To rebuild the generated assets from source:

  • Install Node.js 18 or newer and npm.
  • Open a terminal in the plugin directory.

Run:

cd modules/admin

npm install

npm run build

This regenerates the files in modules/admin/build/ from modules/admin/src/.
