Checked in WordPress
What I actually tried
- Test date
- 2026-10-09
- Plugin version
- 6.2.15
- WordPress
- 7.1.3
- PHP
- 8.5.3
Isolated local macOS PHP server; SQLite Database Integration; Chromium; free editions. Email sending disabled by a lab-only filter. No production accounts or site data.
Limits of this check
- Email sending was disabled, so notification deliverability is not established.
- Payments, Pro integrations, spam handling, high-volume behavior, and production MySQL compatibility were not tested.
Submit and retrieve
Submitted synthetic name, email, subject, and message fields. The public success message appeared; one database entry and its dashboard row were verified.

Research scope
Created a free contact-form template, embedded it on a published page, submitted synthetic fields, and verified dashboard retrieval. Documentation provides context for features outside that workflow.
Important: Form plugins handle personal data. Validate consent, retention, spam prevention, notification delivery, and the exact plan’s capabilities before publishing forms.
