Can you use this plugin without WordPress?

  • I enjoyed using Contact Form 7 for all my forms that I have used on websites before. Though I am coding my websites entirely by myself now and wondered if Contact Form 7 could be used with no WordPress involved. If you could integrate it into a website purely made of HTML/CSS/Javascript. Of course PHP would work to but I was wondering if anyone has done this or if it was a possibility.

    Thank you

  • hahaha, wonderful question. Simple answer is no it cannot. You’d need to rewrite the whole admin/front-end classes to ensure the form creation and submissions work as expected.

    WordPress builds a lot of website plumbing for you. Plugins hook into this plumbing using Filters and Actions. You would need to call the various CF7 functionality at the various points of your request process flow. However, seems like overkill. Just use WordPress!
