Contact Form 7 Designer

Are you looking to add a touch of style and uniqueness to your website’s contact forms but worried about your lack of coding skills? Well, worry no more! With Spectra’s Contact Form 7 Designer Block, you can easily style forms created with the popular Contact Form 7 plugin without writing a single line of code. Let’s dive into what this amazing block has to offer and how it can transform your forms into eye-catching masterpieces.

Customization Made Easy:

Spectra’s Contact Form 7 Designer Block empowers you to fully customize the design of your Contact Form 7 plugin’s forms. Say goodbye to plain and mundane forms that look like everyone else’s. Now, you can effortlessly change form colors, shapes, shadows, backgrounds, and more, all within your browser. No need to mess around with additional code – just create your desired style using the intuitive form output editor.

The Problem with Regular Forms:

You might wonder why you need this feature in the first place. Well, think about it: when all your forms look the same, they lack individuality, and visitors might not find them appealing. This can result in fewer form submissions, leading to missed opportunities for valuable contacts and potential sales.

Until now, styling forms meant diving into CSS codes or using CSS plugins to add custom styles to each page with Contact Form 7. Not only is this time-consuming, but it also requires a fair amount of CSS knowledge. Spectra’s Contact Form 7 Designer Block eliminates all of these issues, providing an elegant solution for form customization that’s accessible to everyone. And the best part is that you do not have to download any additional plugins. All of this is within the Spectra plugin.

Field Space: This option lets you create space between each field of the form. Check out the video to see it in action.

Label & Inputs: Labels provide essential information to users, guiding them on what type of data they should input in a specific field.
