Add Template for Contact Form 7

Description

This plugin adds a template function to “Contact Form 7” using a template file.
This is useful for theme developers to smoothly check the display of CF7 tags.
Create an atcf7 directory in the theme folder and place the template file (.php) in that directory.
You can use PHP, WordPress functions / objects, ACF functions (excluding some) in the template file.
However, it is not possible to show / hide form tags and add / remove required mark(*) using PHP.
This plug-in requires Contact Form 7 ver5.5.3 or above.

Example [theme_path/atcf7/***.php]

<?php
if (!defined('ABSPATH')) {
  exit;
}
/*
* Template Name: Distinguishing Name
*/
?>

<h2>
<?php
// Example of using WP function
the_title();
?>
</h2>

<table>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
        <th><label for="your-category" onclick="">Category</label></th>
        <td>
          <?php
            // Example of using get_field of ACF with checkbox
            $cats = "'".get_field("cat1")."'";
            $cats .= " '".get_field("cat2")."'";
            $cats .= " '".get_field("cat3")."'";
          ?>
          [checkbox your-category id:your-category class:atcf7-form-radio-label exclusive use_label_element <?php echo $cats; ?>]
        </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th><label for="your-name" onclick="">Name</label></th>
      <td>
        [text* your-name id:your-name]
      </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th><label for="your-email" onclick="">Mail Address</label></th>
      <td>
        <div>
          [email* your-email id:your-email ]
        </div>
      </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th><label for="your-content" onclick="">Contents</label></th>
      <td>
        [textarea* your-content x5 id:your-content ]
      </td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
<div>[submit "Submit"]</div>

For the theme developer to make the confirmation smooth, create the atcf7 directory in the theme folder and place the template file (.php) in that directory.

Reviews

Finally a plugin to support developers with cf7

yoche2001 September 27, 2023

I’ve been looking for this functionality for quite some time – and finally I’ve discovered ATCF7. It drastically improves any form development and allows to manage your cf7-Templates in a repository. There may be some lacking features but this is really a great base!
