This plugin is designed to work with other plugins: <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/contact-form-7\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Contact Form 7<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/si-contact-form\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fast Secure Contact Form<\/a>. Those plugins enable you to create forms on web pages. When a form is submitted, they send you email. If you get a lot of form submissions, then you have a lot of email to sort through. What the CFDB Plugin does, is it intercepts the form submission and saves a copy of the data in the database used by your WordPress installation. An administration panel allows you to see the form submissions and export the data into various file formats. This plugin also provides shortcodes that you can use to place submitted data on your own pages and posts. <strong>Installation<\/strong> Since this plugin works with <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/contact-form-7\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Contact Form 7<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/si-contact-form\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fast Secure Contact Form<\/a> plugins, you should install one or both for this plugin to do anything.
