Lavender Form is a drag-and-drop form builder for WordPress. Build a form visually, embed it anywhere with a shortcode or your favorite page builder, and see every submission land in your dashboard -- no coding required.<\/p>\n\n
Build forms visually<\/strong><\/p>\n\n A real drag-and-drop editor: drag fields onto your form, reorder them, and configure each one's label, name, and required status from a live settings panel. Nine field types are included free -- Single Line Text, Email, Phone, Number, Paragraph Text, Dropdown, Checkboxes, Multiple Choice, and Hidden -- with more advanced field types (Signature, Date\/Time, Address, Number Slider, File Upload, and more) visible in the builder as a preview of what Lavender Form Pro unlocks.<\/p>\n\n Real email notifications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Modeled on the notification pattern millions of WordPress users already know from Contact Form 7: an admin notification and an optional auto-reply to whoever filled out the form, both using Embed anywhere<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Every form gets a Track your submissions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n The Entries screen shows every submission in a clean inbox-style list -- unread ones stand out, click one to see every field that was submitted, mark it read or unread, or delete it. Two built-in charts show submissions over time and a breakdown of answers for your Dropdown\/Checkboxes\/Multiple Choice fields, so you can see response patterns at a glance without exporting anything.<\/p>\n\n Accessible by default<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Every rendered form uses proper labels (including Lavender Form's core -- everything described above -- is free, forever, on WordPress.org, including unlimited entry storage with no retention window. Lavender Form Pro<\/strong> (sold separately, not on WordPress.org) adds advanced charts with date-range filtering and period comparison, CSV\/PDF export, premium field types (Signature, Date & Time picker, Address autocomplete, Number Slider, File Upload, Payment\/UPI QR), conditional logic, and marketing integrations. Every Pro field type is visible in the free builder with a clearly-marked \"Pro\" badge -- nothing is hidden, and nothing free ever stops working if you don't upgrade.<\/p>\n\n\n No. Every feature described above works fully in the free version. Pro only adds the items listed in \"Free vs. Pro.\"<\/p><\/dd>\n There's no limit -- every submission to every form is kept indefinitely in the free version.<\/p><\/dd>\n Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, and WPBakery each get a native widget\/module\/element. Every other page builder and every classic theme can use the A honeypot field and per-IP rate limiting are built in and active by default. reCAPTCHA\/hCaptcha support requires your own site key from Google or hCaptcha and is planned for a future release.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes -- every form has a built-in \"Notify me\" notification (to your admin email by default, customizable) and an optional auto-reply to the person who submitted the form.<\/p><\/dd>\n By far the most common cause is not the plugin itself but how your WordPress host sends mail. WordPress' built-in Rendered forms use semantic labels and fieldsets, announce errors to screen readers, and support full keyboard navigation. The admin form builder is also fully keyboard-operable. See the plugin's changelog for ongoing accessibility work.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n{tag}<\/code> placeholders ({full_name}<\/code>, {email}<\/code>, {all_fields}<\/code>, and any of your own field names) to pull submitted values into the subject and message. Insert a tag by dragging it straight into the field, or click it -- no memorizing tag syntax.<\/p>\n\n[lavender_form id=\"123\"]<\/code> shortcode. If you build pages with Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, or WPBakery, Lavender Form adds a native widget\/module\/element to each one -- pick your form from a dropdown, no shortcodes needed. Every embed method renders through the exact same code path, so a form looks and behaves identically no matter how it's placed.<\/p>\n\n<fieldset><\/code>\/<legend><\/code> grouping for Multiple Choice and Checkboxes fields), announces validation errors to screen readers, and moves keyboard focus to the first invalid field on a failed submission. The admin builder is fully keyboard-operable, not just mouse\/drag-driven.<\/p>\n\nFree vs. Pro<\/h4>\n\n

I'm not receiving notification emails at all -- what's wrong?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
wp_mail()<\/code> function falls back to PHP's raw mail()<\/code> when no SMTP plugin is configured, and a lot of hosts either don't wire that up to a real outgoing mail server at all, or send it in a way that Gmail\/Outlook flag as spam or reject outright (no SPF\/DKIM alignment with your sending domain). If notifications aren't arriving, first check your Settings -> Notifications \"Send to\" address is correct and current, then install a free SMTP plugin (such as WP Mail SMTP) and connect it to a real mail provider (your own Gmail\/Google Workspace account, or a transactional service like SendGrid, Mailgun, or Brevo) -- that's the standard, reliable fix on any WordPress site, not something specific to Lavender Form.<\/p><\/dd>\nIs this plugin accessible?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
