WP Inquiries
Contact Us or Contact Form is a basic need for every website. It is not built-in for WordPress. WP Inquiries allow you to have a basic contact form that you can put on any page or widget. It will send an email to admin and record them to the database.
My first plugin for WordPress. I built many websites. Some of them are using WordPress. I had a hard time when building a page of Contact Us. There is no plugin perfectly matched into this my basic standard. I installed some plugins then customized them to fit into the standard previously. That was a complex to-do list for simple stuff.
WP Inquiries is awesome. It is compact and perfectly fit our requirement. All you need for a page of Contact Us or Contact Form is there. All inquiries come from your websites will be sending into the admin email then will be recorded. What you need to do is just put the shortcode [wp-inquiries] to any page or widget that you wanted.
Make sure there are translations in your native language. Feel free to use WP Inquiries.
