Excellent product!

So much easier than Gravity Forms
by Jen6566·5 days ago·1 reply

I’ve been a long-time Gravity Forms user, but Formidable forms could do more out-of-the-box for what this client needed. Now that I’ve used Formidable, I’ll be using it again for new clients. Great support, too.

Best Form Plugin for WordPress

Definitely the most robust form plugin for WordPress, hands down, mic drop! It has everything you need and more, and the support is top shelf.

One of the Best Plugins EVER
by innovatedmedia·2 weeks ago·1 reply

I have been using Formidable Pro for like 15 years, and I refuse to use any other plugin for creating web-based forms. Formidable has pretty much any integration you can think of already available to setup. They have worked very hard over the years to make their plugin even better.

Best money I’ve ever spent on a WordPress plugin, hands down.

We love Formidable!
by Ben Bishop·3 weeks ago·1 reply

Formidable is the most streamlined yet feature-rich WordPress plugin on the market. I have tried all of the form builders, and Formidable Forms is truly the only one that provides the level of customization I need for complicated forms, while also keeping the workflow simple enough to make simple form building quick. I also love how most niche features are not bundled with the main plugin, and are enabled via add-ons instead. The templates are a great starting point for most of the forms I create.

Changelog

  • New: Additional validation has been added to prevent people from manipulating amount values when making Stripe payments.
  • Fix: When updating the Stripe processing message global setting with strings contained backslashes, extra backslashes would get added with each time the global settings were updated.
  • Fix: Usage tracking code would trigger a str_contains(): Argument 1 must be string, stdClass given warning.
  • Fix: Credit card fields would appear blank in some previews, like when previewing a Gutenberg block.
