StickEasy Protected Contact Form

Descripción

StickEasy Protected Contact Form is the fastest way to get a functional contact form on your WordPress site. This plugin is focused on simplicity and speed, allowing you to create a minimal contact form by simply placing a shortcode on any page.

There’s no complex setup or field builder. Just install, place the shortcode, and start receiving messages.

As an added benefit, the form includes built-in basic spam protection (honeypot, submission time check, and badwords filter) to keep most automated bots away without the need for CAPTCHAs or third-party services.

Usage

1. Simple Setup (Shortcode)

To instantly add the contact form, insert the following shortcode into any post or page:

[spcf_form]

2. Basic Customization

You can adjust the basic form behavior from Settings StickEasy Contact.
The following options are available:

Contact Form Settings

  • Edit Form Labels

    • Customize the visible labels for each field (Name, Email, Message) to match your website’s tone or language.
      NOTE: Basic HTML such as <strong> or <br> can be used for emphasis or formatting.
  • Toggle the Name field on or off with a single checkbox. Useful when you prefer a shorter form or want to accept anonymous messages.

  • Specify the recipient email address for messages.
    By default, messages are sent to the Administration Email Address set in your WordPress settings (“Settings” “General”).

  • Custom Success Message

    • Edit the message shown after the form is successfully submitted.
      You can also use simple HTML formatting, such as <br>for line breaks.
      Example: “Thank you!<br>We will get back to you within 2 business days.”

Spam Protection Settings

  • Enable or disable all built-in spam protection features at once.
    Included protections: Honeypot, Submission Time Check, and Forbidden Word Filter.

  • Minimum Submission Time
    Set the minimum number of seconds a visitor must remain on the page before submitting.
    A value between 3 and 10 seconds is generally recommended.

  • Forbidden Word Filter
    Add blocked words, domains, email patterns, or IP addresses to prevent spam submissions.
    Note:
    The Forbidden Word Filter list also applies to the visitor’s email address and IP address, not just the message body.
    Examples:
     viagra
     bit.ly
     visitor@email.com
     123.45.67.89

FAQ

Q. Can I customize the styles for labels, input fields, and buttons?

A. Yes, you can.
Each element has its own CSS class assigned:

  • Label: spcf-label
  • Input fields: spcf-input (name and email fields), spcf-textarea (message textarea)
  • Submit button: spcf-button
  • Messages: spcf-success-message for successful submissions, spcf-error-message for error messages

By modifying the CSS for these classes, you can freely customize the appearance to match your preferred design.
