A contact page is an essential part of almost every website. It allows visitors to easily get in touch with you, which is key for business, blogging, or just maintaining communication with your followers. Wordpress offers several ways to create a contact page on your site, from using plugins to inserting form code directly into the page. In this article, we'll look at the easiest way to create a contact page using a plugin.

Step 1: Choose and Install a Contact Form Plugin

The first step is choosing a contact form plugin. Among the most popular are Contact Form 7, WPForms, and Ninja Forms. For this example, we'll use Contact Form 7, which is free and offers enough flexibility for most needs.

1. Log in to your WordPress dashboard.
2. Go to "Plugins" > "Add New".
3. Search for "Contact Form 7".
4. Click "Install" and then "Activate".

Step 2: Create a New Contact Form

After activating the plugin, a new item "Contact" will appear in the left menu. Click on it.

1. Click "Add New" to create a new form.
2. The plugin will offer a preset form that you can use, or you can customize your own as needed.
3. After finishing the form edits, click "Save".

Step 3: Inserting the Contact Form on a Page

Now that you have created the form, you need to insert it into a contact page.

1. Create a new page by going to "Pages" > "Add New".
2. Give your page a title, for example, "Contact".
3. In the page editor, click where you want to insert the form, and then click the "Add Block" button (plus icon).
4. Look for the "shortcode" block and select it.
5. Paste the shortcode of your contact form into the shortcode block, which you can find in the "Contact" section. It will look something like [contact-form-7 id="123" title="Contact form 1"].
6. Save or publish the page.

Step 4: Testing the Contact Form

After publishing the contact page, it's important to test if the form works correctly – if it sends messages to your email. Fill out the form and click send to make sure everything works as it should.

Creating a contact page in WordPress is an easy process that you can manage without advanced technical knowledge. Thanks to the wide range of available plugins, you can customize the form exactly to your specifications and needs. This makes it a breeze for your website visitors to get in touch with you
