How to Create a Simple Contact Form in WordPress (Easily)
WPForms offers the easiest solution for adding a contact form to your WordPress site. The Simple Contact Form template is ready to use, and you can have it up and running in just a few steps:
- Select the Simple Contact Form template
- Customize your contact form

You can add our Simple Contact Form template to your site as-is and have it ready to collect submissions in minutes. However, if you want to add more fields to you contact form or customize the ones it already includes, you can easily do so in the drag-and-drop form builder.
Just click on any field to open its options panel and change its label and description. You can also change the Submit button text, layout, and more, all from the form builder.
Some popular contact form customizations include:
- Adding a Multiple Choice field so users can select a reason for contact
- Including a File Upload field so customers can include an image related to their inquiry
- Using the Phone and Address fields to collect additional contact information from the user so that you can get in touch with them
WPForms can store contact form entries so you can view them in your dashboard, but if you want to be notified every time someone submits your form, visit the Settings tab to create an email notification.
You can also create a confirmation message to let users know the form has submitted successfully and to provide them with more information. This is a good place to include your average response time so they know when to expect to hear from you.
The last step is to add your new contact form to your WordPress site. The WPForms block lets you embed your form in any post, page, or widget area using a simple dropdown menu.
