Contact form for WordPress

A WordPress contact form without a plugin

Skip Contact Form 7 and the SMTP plugins. Drop a plain HTML form into a Custom HTML block and Formpit handles delivery, spam and storage.

How to set it up

Create a form in Formpit and copy the endpoint URL.
In the WordPress editor, add a Custom HTML block (or a Code block in Elementor/Divi) and paste the snippet below with your endpoint.
Publish the page and send a test submission.

Paste into a Custom HTML block

<form action="https://formpit.com/f/YOUR_FORM_ID" method="POST">
  <input type="text"  name="name"  placeholder="Your name" required>
  <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Your email" required>
  <textarea name="message" placeholder="Message" required></textarea>
  <input type="text" name="_gotcha" style="display:none" tabindex="-1" autocomplete="off">
  <button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>

Replace YOUR_FORM_ID with the endpoint from your form's Setup tab.

Good to know

Works on WordPress.com (Business plan or higher, which allows custom HTML) and on any self-hosted site.
Style the inputs with your theme's CSS or inline styles; Formpit only needs the action.
For the thank-you page, create a WordPress page and set its URL as the form's redirect in Formpit.
