To build a memorable brand, your communications with your users and customers must be more than just words on a screen.
The emails you send out are an opportunity to strengthen your brand identity and reflect the unique personality and style of your organization.
But styling options for form notification emails sent from your website are often limited.
That’s why we’re thrilled today to announce the latest WPForms update, which includes professionally designed email templates and customization options!
With this update, we’re excited to offer you more flexibility and the freedom to be creative with the email notifications sent from your forms.
Your brand is unique, and it’s time your emails reflected that.
Customizable Email Notification Templates
With the latest WPForms update, we’re giving you the choice of six pre-built email template styles.
Choose from Plain Text, Classic, Compact, Modern, Elegant, or Tech to showcase your brand’s distinct identity.
To personalize your email notifications and make them stand out in the inbox, you can also add a logo or header image of your choice, adjust its size, change the typography style, and choose a unique color scheme.
All our email templates have been carefully crafted and tested to ensure they look great at any screen size and in any email client, so you’ll always present a professional image.
And that’s not all!
We’ve also improved our support for dark mode to ensure users enjoy a seamless reading experience tailored to their individual preferences.
We can’t wait for you to try out the new templates and experiment with the styling options. Do you gravitate towards a modern aesthetic or prefer a classic style? The choice is yours!
To give all WPForms users a chance to try out these new templates, we’ve made the Plain Text, Classic, and Compact templates available to all license levels.
Pro users can access an additional three templates, plus color scheme and typography customization.
Easily Add Code Snippets to Your Forms
We love the innovative spirit of the WPForms community!
Every day we hear about a new use case for WPForms or a unique way of creating a form that we haven’t come across before.
By adding custom code snippets to WPForms, you can expand on what’s possible with the core plugin and addons. You’re limited only by your imagination when it comes to what you can build!
But we have to be honest – integrating custom code snippets wasn’t as simple as we would have liked it to be.
Now all that has changed! We’re delighted to let you know that we’ve built WPCode integration right into the WPForms plugin.
When you have both WPForms and WPCode installed on your site, you’ll be able to access a library of pre-made WPForms code snippets, all ready to use at the click of a button!
From changing the submit button color to setting a default date for the date picker, we’ve preloaded WPCode with over 30 of our most requested code snippets for customizing form appearance and functionality.
You can search, install, and edit code snippets quickly and easily. And if you want to use a code snippet you wrote yourself or found online, you can easily add this to WPCode for effortless implementation too.
Enhanced Form Data Exports
We’ve also made some improvements to the way form entries are exported to CSV and XLS files.
We’ve heard your feedback on the functionality of this feature, and we wanted to make sure your form data exports are formatted in the most usable and efficient way possible.
Multi-input fields for names and addresses are now exported as separate columns, and multiple-choice fields such as checkboxes will be exported to separate cells.
The Export Entries page has been adjusted to make it easier for you to export only the data you need, and we’ve added a new section for payment fields.
The Best Is Yet to Come
As always, this new release is just one small milestone on our journey to creating the best form builder for WordPress.
We’re already working on some exciting things for our next release, and we can’t wait to share them with you when they’re ready.
Make sure to try out the email templates and other new features of WPForms 1.8.5, and keep sending us your feedback and feature requests!
Remember, our support team is happy to answer any questions you may have and help your website and business grow and succeed. So don’t hesitate to reach out!

It would help if the form setup for who gets an email notification that a form was filled out. E.G. I would like to get a notification sent to me with the info I want and the client getting the confirmation of registering on the form and their next actions to expect.
PS I am a Pro version user.
Hey Dan – Thanks for sharing the feedback, and I’ll share with the team. In the meantime, you can take a look at our notification and user confirmation documentation.
