Stay in touch with your visitors very easily. Pirate Contact Forms offers you a great and friendly contact form for your website.
This is an easy-to-use WordPress contact form with captcha plugin. To create a contact form you just need to use the [pirate_forms] shortcode or use the WordPress contact form widget.
Time-saving features available in the FULL WPForms version:
- Unlimited Forms
- Email Marketing Integrations (MailChimp, AWeber, Constant Contact, and more)

Why use our responsive WordPress Contact Form:
This Contact Form 7 or any form builder alternative is very easy to set up. You can quickly create an engaging contact form by using a shortcode and copying it where you want it to appear.
This WordPress Contact Form plugin allows you to customize everything you want. You can change the field labels and decide what message to tell your visitors when an error shows up. You can also decide which fields are required and which are not.
Avoid spam messages and make sure the e-mails you receive are entirely addressed to you.
Pirate Form comes with basic SMTP options, so you won’t miss any email from your visitors. The messages will be safely delivered from the source to your personal e-mail address.
However for a more reliable SMTP solution, we recommend using WP Mail SMTP by WPForms which is the most popular WordPress SMTP solution being used by over 1 million websites.
You can keep all the contacts in an archive by saving their e-mail addresses. Pirate Contact Form allows you to do that by providing contact databases.
A simple to use contact form plugin for creating a clean contact form using the [pirate_forms] shortcode or the ‘Pirate Forms’ form widget.
Standard contact forms work just fine, but you can make them nicer by using AJAX to submit the form data in the background.
Pirate Forms allows you to take advantage of this great feature using the [pirate_forms ajax=”yes”] shortcode or the ‘Submit form using Ajax’ option in the Pirate Forms widget.
This is not a form maker or drag & drop builder plugin nor “the best contact form plugin”. You cannot add new fields or create multiple forms (subscription forms, payment, order, feedback or quote) with Pirate Forms.
This is why we recommend using WPForms which is the most beginner friendly drag & drop WordPress form builder in the market.
