10.1 Contact Form 7

Bundled with the theme comes Contact Form 7: it can manage multiple contact forms, plus you can customize the form and the mail contents flexibly with simple markup. The form supports Ajax-powered submitting, CAPTCHA, Akismet spam filtering and so on.

Html formatting

In order to achieve a nice design result, there are 4 important things to do:

  1. Follow the HTML structure provided below
  2. For multi-column rows, follow the containers structure as in the example
  3. Be sure to delete the default “for” attribute of the label fields (as invalidates the HTML w3c standards)
  4. Add the button classes to the submit (attention, the order where you put them is important!)
    Example: [submit class:firwl-btn__full "Send message"]
<label>Your Message</label>[textarea msg] 
    <div class="firwl-row">
        <div class="firwl-col firwl-m6">
            <label> Your Name (required)</label>
            [text* your-nm] 
        </div>
        <div class="firwl-col firwl-m6">
            <label> Your Email (required)</label>
            [email* your-ml] 
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="firwl-row">
        <div class="firwl-col firwl-m6">
            <label> Phone Number (required)</label>
            [email* your-pn] 
        </div>
        <div class="firwl-col firwl-m6">
        <label>&nbsp;</label>
        [submit class:firwl-btn__full "Send message"]
        </div>
    </div>

How to add a contact form to your page using Page Builder

You can add a contact form to your page using WP Bakery Page Builder.
When editing a page, make sure you are using the Backend Editor (if not active yet).

Then add to your page the Contact Form 7 shortcode.

After this, you can edit the shortcode and choose a previously created contact form.

How to add a contact form with raw shortcode

You can also add a Contact Form 7 without its shortcode.
Go to Contact -> Contact Forms.

Each Contact Form has its own shortcode.

You can copy and paste it wherever you want whether is a post, page or sidebar.
