About
This is a fork of cformsII, a highly customizable, flexible and powerful form builder plugin, covering a variety of use cases and features.
Security History
What It Does
cformsII is a WordPress form builder that lets site owners create contact forms, surveys, multi-step applications, and event registrations through a customizable interface. As a fork of the original cformsII plugin, it retains the flexible form construction tools while continuing development on a separate codebase. It supports a wide range of use cases from lead generation to appointment booking.
Who It's For
This plugin is best suited for site owners who need a free, flexible form builder and are comfortable with a community-maintained fork rather than a commercially supported product. It fits small to mid-sized WordPress sites that want multi-step forms, sidebar widgets, and detailed customization without paying for a premium add-on stack.
Who Should Skip It
If you need reliable, responsive developer support or a polished onboarding experience, skip this plugin, since it has zero resolved support threads on record. Sites handling high-volume transactional forms or anyone wanting integration with major CRMs and email marketing platforms should look at a more actively supported alternative.
The Bottom Line
cformsII delivers a strong maintenance and compatibility story on paper, with a recent update and current WordPress testing, but the absence of any resolved support threads and a small install base make it a risky choice for business-critical forms. It is worth considering if you specifically want this fork's feature set and accept working without formal support. For most users, a more widely adopted form plugin will be the safer bet.
