This is a fork of cformsII, a highly customizable, flexible and powerful form builder plugin, covering a variety of use cases and features.

Oliver, the original author, discontinued developing the plugin. This fork is an effort to keep it up to date.

If you want to use plugin versions older than 14.6.3, you should rename the directory containing the plugin from “cforms2” to “cforms”. But bear in mind that old versions should not be used in public systems, because they contain known serious vulnerabilities that are exploited in the wild.

The current security baseline version is 15.0.5.

Localization

You can see the available languages and contribute via GlotPress. Only some of them that are almost completely translated are installed automatically.

If you want to install another language, please choose its cell in the Development column, export it as Machine Object Message Catalog (.mo) and put it in the wp-content/languages/plugins directory.

Roadmap

Some things are to be done:

  • add a Gutenberg equivalent of the editor plugin
  • filter user input better
  • rework multi-part forms to be independent from PHP sessions
  • refactoring with object oriented approach
  • long term: unit tests and continuous integration
