Amazing

it works great

Really useful plugin
by biberkopf·2 years ago

This extension to CF7 opens for a whole variety of use cases and creative solutions. If you combine it with Conditional Fields for CF7 the possibilities are endless. Thanx for this solution.

Awesome plugin

Really Awesome plugin and solved my problem.

Thanks!

Fully recommended
by claumigue·4 years ago

Happy to have discovered this extremely useful plugin. You can, for example, automatically populate the labels in a dropdown field with the titles of a custom post type and get their values from a custom field created with ACF. Good job!

Useful plugin and high-quality support
by joshtab·5 years ago

This plugin fills a need that isn’t addressed by CF7 alone. And if for any reason you need extrahelp (like using hooks), you can ask for support.

Thanks to the author for his kind help 🙏
