What people says

Check some reviews from wordpress.org members

After struggling with Contact Form 7 for years, I switched to BBForms.

The experience has been night and day. BBForms is lightweight, intuitive, and far superior.

Flavia Bernardez flabernardez.com

I had my first contact form live in just a few minutes with just a few clicks, thanks to its editor, which includes predefined field templates.

I’ve been impressed with BBForms!

Joan Boluda
boluda.com

What impressed me most was how quickly I could learn BBForms.

The syntax is intuitive, similar to shortcodes, and the editor makes form creation almost instant.

Frequently asked questions

Why code forms instead of a visual builder?

Coding your forms brings greater flexibility, control, and scalability compared to relying on a visual builder.

While visual builders may seem easier at first, they quickly reveal their limitations, becoming less flexible and slower to use.

Defining your forms in text gives you complete control over their content. You can insert custom elements wherever you need, copy and paste only the parts you want, and easily share your form code with others.

By contrast, visual builders force you to work within a graphical interface and restrict you to the actions they support. As a result, even a simple task like duplicating one or multiple fields depends on whether the editor includes a specific control for it.

In short, a text-based editor offers a level of freedom and efficiency that visual builders simply cannot match.

What types of forms can I build with BBForms?

BBForms is designed to build multipurpose forms, which means that you can build almost any kind of form you need. Here are some types of WordPress forms you can create:

Contact Forms
Job Application Forms
File Upload Forms
Quiz Forms
Lead Forms
Feedback Forms
Polling & Survey Forms
Appointment Forms
Booking Forms
Event Registration Forms
RSVP Forms
Newsletter Signup Forms
CRM Forms
Email Forms
Support Ticket Forms
Request Forms
Sales Forms
Questionnaire Forms
Export or Delete Data Request Forms

With our premium add-ons you can build even more advanced forms:

Calculation Forms
Multi-Step Forms
Signature Contract Forms
Conditional Forms
Repeatable Fields Forms
Address Autocomplete Forms
Payment Calculator Forms
Quote & Cost Calculator Forms
Health & Fitness Calculator Forms

… and many more!

Can I connect BBForms with other plugins and platforms?

Yes. We are the authors of AutomatorWP, an automation plugin that can connect your forms with +200 plugins & platforms like OpenAI, HubSpot, Learndash & WooCommerce.

In addition, you can create custom workflows like:

Enroll in a LifterLMS course after submit a form
Update a Google Sheets with the submitted data
Register as contact in WPFusion after submit a form
Send a webhook to Zapier with the submitted data
Register as affiliate in AffiliateWP after submit a form

The possibilities are unlimited!

Is BBForms compatible with any theme?

We have tested BBForms with the most popular WordPress themes and since it uses HTML5 inputs, almost all themes should display them correctly.

If your theme does not display a field correctly, just let us know to fix it as soon as possible.

Does BBForms include spam protection?

Yes, BBForms includes anti-bot & anti-spam protection through honeypot which is enabled on all forms by default in the form options.

Additionally, there are premium integrations with Google reCaptcha (v2 & v3), hCaptcha, & Cloudflare Turnstile.

Lastly, you can add a custom Captcha using the Quiz field to create math or question-based captcha for your forms.

Will BBForms slow down my website?

Absolutely not. BBForms was built carefully with performance in mind to make BBForms run smoothly & fast with just 4kb CSS & 9kb JS.

In addition, BBForms only loads styles & scripts in the pages where you place a form.

Is BBForms translation ready?

Is BBForms GDPR compliant?

Yes. All user submitted data is stored locally on your server only, unless you expressly configure BBForms to send it elsewhere, for example via an email action.
