I’m a big fan of the Divi theme, but the out of the box contact form is pretty lackluster. Here are some general limitations:
Requirements:
- Does not connect with Flamingo (storing messages)
- Does not integrate well with ReCaptcha
- Formatting and extended functionality (like image uploading) is limited in comparison to Contact Form 7
So, how do you get around this? Contact Form 7 out of the box looks horrible…So here’s what you do
- Install Contact Form 7
- Install Flaimingo (if you want records of your messages and contact’s email addresses)
- Install Invisible ReCaptcha (CF7 integration is buggy with ReCaptcha and Flamingo) (make sure to set up ReCaptcha keys)
- Add the code below to your custom CSS file
CSS Code
Add this to your custom CSS stylesheet.
