Free WordPress Form Builder for Contact, Newsletter and Quote Forms

Pipeline Forms is a free WordPress form builder that’s simple and fast. Build a form in minutes from a template, drop it on any page with a shortcode or block, and see every submission in your dashboard.

It’s complete on its own. Nothing is locked, no account is needed and there’s no tracking.

Why keep form entries in WordPress

Email notifications get lost in busy inboxes and spam folders. Pipeline Forms saves every submission in your own database, so you can search, review and export your leads whenever you need them. That means a missed email never means a missed customer, and you always have a full history of who contacted you and what they asked for.

Who Pipeline Forms is for

• Service businesses collecting quote requests
• Bloggers and creators running a contact page
• Small teams that want leads stored in one place

What’s included in the free version

• Drag-and-drop builder with up and down controls for keyboard users.
• 12 field types: text, paragraph, dropdown, multiple choice, checkboxes, number, hidden, name, email, phone, website and GDPR consent.
• Field settings: required, labels, placeholders, descriptions and CSS classes.
• Templates: Simple Contact Form, Newsletter Signup and Quote Request.
• Shortcode and block: [pipeline_form id="123"] or the Gutenberg block.
• AJAX submission with a full fallback when JavaScript is off.
• Stored entries with list, detail view, search, delete and CSV export.
• Admin email notifications with merge tags and Reply-To.
• Confirmation message or redirect after submit.
• Spam protection: honeypot, time trap and rate limiting, plus optional Google reCAPTCHA v2 or hCaptcha.

Tips for getting the most from Pipeline Forms

Start from the template closest to what you need and remove fields you don’t need, because shorter forms get more submissions. Add a consent field if you plan to email people later. Turn on email notifications with Reply-To set to the visitor’s email so you can answer with one click. Use the redirect option to send people to a thank-you page, which is also an easy place to track conversions.
