Auto Form Builder is a powerful, fully free WordPress form plugin that gives you everything you need to create professional forms — without touching a single line of code.
Whether you're building a simple contact form, a multi-step feedback form, a file upload form, or a complex form with conditional logic, Auto Form Builder handles it all from an intuitive drag-and-drop interface.
Every feature listed below is included in the free plugin. No upsells hidden behind core functionality.
Why Auto Form Builder?
Most form plugins lock their best features behind expensive subscriptions. Auto Form Builder gives you conditional logic, form analytics, spam protection, submission management, webhooks, import/export, and full visual customization — all completely free.
Drag & Drop Form Builder
Building a form takes minutes. Open the builder, drag your fields onto the canvas, and you're done. The builder supports undo/redo, a live preview with desktop, tablet, and mobile views, and instant shortcode generation so you can embed your form anywhere on your site.
10+ Field Types
Every common field type is included:
- Text Input
- Textarea
- Phone
- Number
- Date & Time
- Checkbox
- Radio Buttons
- Dropdown
- Name Field
- Address
- File Upload
- Theme presets — Corporate, Minimal, Modern, Eco, Friendly, Luxury, Neutral, Creative, Feminine, Fresh, and more
- Header image / banner per form
- Background, colors, fonts, layout
- Field styling and button design
- Visual effects
- Google reCAPTCHA — industry-standard bot protection
- Cloudflare Turnstile — a privacy-first, user-friendly CAPTCHA alternative with a better experience for real visitors

更新日志:
1.2.3
- New: Inline validation for searchable dropdowns and pattern/format input rules — invalid fields now show an inline error message, are visually marked, block submission, and the form scrolls to and focuses the first invalid field. Errors clear automatically as the visitor corrects them.
- New: Opt-in, anonymous Usage Data — an optional, off-by-default setting (available in the onboarding screen and under Settings → General) that sends a one-time anonymous "install" event when you opt in and an "uninstall" event when the plugin is deleted, so we can measure the uninstall rate and prioritise improvements. Fully anonymous (random local site ID only), https-only, and never sends your site URL, email, IP, or any form/submission content. See the "External Services" section for the full disclosure.
- Improved: Refreshed compiled frontend bundle and build tooling for faster, more reliable form rendering.
- New: Email Branding — customize 3 colors (accent, heading/text, page background) for admin notification and user confirmation emails per form. Defaults match the original look, so existing forms render byte-for-byte identically.
- New: Optional hyperlink inside Single Checkbox (Yes/No) field text — embed a link to a privacy policy, terms page, or any URL directly inside the consent checkbox label, with optional "open in new tab".
- New: Email deliverability tip displayed inside form settings whenever an email feature is enabled — explains why messages may land in Spam without an SMTP plugin and how to fix it, without naming or recommending any third-party product.
- New: Opt-in, anonymous Deactivation Feedback dialog — appears only when an admin clicks Deactivate from the plugins screen, shows the exact payload before sending, and provides a clearly visible "Skip & Deactivate" option. No site URL, email, IP, or personal data is collected.
- Improved: Duplicate-submission protection — the submit button now visually locks after the first valid click and re-enables on validation errors or browser back navigation, while the server silently absorbs identical payloads received within a 10-second window. Prevents duplicate entries from rapid double-clicks, slow networks, or browser/service-worker replays.
- Improved: WordPress.org compliance — explicit "External Services" section added to the plugin readme covering the optional opt-in feedback endpoint.
- Fixed: Form submissions on pages with non-Latin URLs (Georgian, Arabic, Cyrillic, Chinese, Hebrew, Persian, Thai, etc.) no longer redirect to the WordPress admin login page after submit
- Fixed: Required field validation now works correctly when a file upload field is present on the form — Name, Email, and other required fields no longer falsely report as missing
- Fixed: Conditional logic now triggers on single-selection searchable dropdowns when an option is chosen
- Fixed: Multi-select dropdown chip remove icon now correctly deselects the option (previously did nothing)
- Fixed: Clicking directly on a checkbox inside a multi-select dropdown now properly toggles selection
- Fixed: Flash of unstyled content (FOUC) — fields hidden by conditional logic no longer briefly appear on page load before being hidden by JavaScript
- New: Move Up / Move Down buttons on each form field in the builder canvas — click-to-reorder alternative to drag-and-drop, with first/last fields automatically disabled
- New: Dedicated "Report a Bug" admin page with direct links to the online bug report form and email support, plus a prominent CTA banner on the Help & Documentation page
- Fixed: Date fields now display in the user-configured format (e.g. DD/MM/YYYY, MM/DD/YYYY) on the submission detail page in the dashboard
- Fixed: Date fields now display in the user-configured format in admin notification emails and user confirmation emails (subject, body, and {submission_data} table)
- Fixed: Date field placeholders in custom email templates (e.g. {birthday}, {start_date}) now respect the per-field date format setting
- Fixed: HTML formatting tags (e.g. <br>, <p>) are no longer stripped from the "Custom Message" field of the User Confirmation Email when saving form settings
- Fixed: HTML formatting tags are no longer stripped from the "Success Message" field when saving form settings
- Fixed: Required single checkboxes (e.g. consent, privacy, terms) now trigger the browser's inline "Please check this box" validation on submit, matching the behaviour of other required fields — prevents the full-form error banner and avoids losing typed data
- New: Optional "Show Date Preview" toggle for date fields — allows hiding the date preview chip below the date picker when not needed
- Fixed: Form container no longer remains visible as an empty box after successful AJAX submission
- Fixed: Email notifications now show field labels instead of numeric IDs for fields inside Row layouts
- Fixed: Multi-select dropdown validation entries no longer appear in email notifications
