Smart Edit with AI and WPForms Entry Importer

Introducing WPForms v1.10.1: Edit Forms With AI and Import Entries From Anywhere!

When we first built WPForms, the goal was simple.

Give every small business and website owner the easiest way to build powerful forms on WordPress.

Today over 6 million websites trust WPForms to power their forms every single day, and our core value towards laboring for simplicity is still the driving force behind all our decisions.

That’s why I’m thrilled to introduce WPForms v1.10.1, which ships two brand new features that extend what WPForms can already do while making your workflow even easier.

WPForms Now Integrates with Klaviyo Natively!

Did you know that email marketing delivers an average ROI of $42 for every $1 spent?

And, what if I told you that for most WordPress sites running Klaviyo, a meaningful chunk of that return is walking past every form on the site?

Don’t believe me? Check how many form submissions you’ve collected in the last 30 days.

Now ask yourself: how many of those contacts are actually inside Klaviyo, enrolled in your welcome sequences, and receiving your emails?

Every form submission that doesn’t reach Klaviyo is a lead that never enters your marketing funnel. And every day that gap stays open, you’re losing revenue.

WPForms Surveys & Polls Just Got a Massive Upgrade – Here’s What’s New

Survey data is only as powerful as your ability to understand it.

And here’s the hard truth: if you’re staring at rows of raw responses trying to make sense of what your audience is actually telling you, you’re wasting time you DON’T have.

That’s exactly why we built the original Surveys & Polls addon. And today, we’re making it dramatically better, so you can get better insights, faster!

How to Auto-Delete Old Form Entries for GDPR Compliance

Privacy laws like the GDPR say you can only keep personal data for as long as you genuinely need it, so letting old form entries sit there forever puts you at risk.

Deleting them by hand is tedious, and honestly, most people forget, so the data just keeps growing. The fix is to delete old entries automatically on a schedule you set one time.

WPForms gives you two ways to do that, one built into every paid plan and one more capable option for sites that take compliance seriously. I’ll walk you through both, then help you decide which one fits your situation.

Google Drive vs Dropbox: Which WordPress Form File Storage Is Better?

You’ve added a file upload to a WordPress form, and now those files are stacking up somewhere you don’t love. Every submission either lands on your web server or buries itself inside an email notification.

Neither spot is built for storing real files and two of the most popular fixes for such issues are Google Drive and Dropbox. Both can catch every file your form collects and tuck it into a cloud folder for you automatically.

Both Google Drive and Dropbox connect to WPForms as addons, and both lean on the same File Upload field to do their work. That makes for a clean comparison, as you can point the exact same form at either service and watch how each one stores what comes in.

8 Best Contact Form 7 Alternatives for WordPress (2026)

At WordCamp Asia 2026, Contact Form 7’s creator Takayuki Miyoshi announced that version 6.2 will be the final feature release. The plugin enters maintenance mode going forward, which means security patches and bug fixes only and no new features.

A successor project called Contactable.io is in the works, but it’s not expected until at least 2028. If you’ve been running Contact Form 7 on your site, that news probably changes the calculation. The good news is the WordPress form plugin market is crowded with strong alternatives.

This article walks through the best Contact Form 7 alternatives, ranked by overall fit for the kind of site that runs (or used to run) CF7. For each, I cover what the plugin actually does, what I liked, what it costs, and where it fits best.

How to Collect Photo ID Verification on WordPress Forms

If you run a WordPress site that needs to verify who someone is before letting them in, you’ve got a real problem to solve.

Contests, age-restricted shops, member sign-ups, and freelancer onboarding, they all need ID collection, but none of them need a $300/month KYC platform to pull it off.

The good news is that WPForms has a clean way to do this through a regular form. This guide walks through exactly how to build that form.
