Contact Form 7

Rubenz is compatible with the popular plugin Contact Form 7 (opens new window) for sending messages through your website.

TIP

This plugin is recommended by the Rubenz theme, so you are likely to already have it installed. If not, just search for it and install it from the WordPress Plugins directory in Plugins → Add Plugin.

Let’s set up the plugin.

▶️ Step 1.

From the admin panel, go to Contact → Contact Forms. If you have correctly imported the demo data, you should see a form with a shortcode here.

Click on that form Rubenz Contact Form Column and open the Mail tab. Here you can configure where your messages from the contact form will be sent.

After you're done, click the Save button

▶️ Step 2.

Copy the form shortcode. This is just an example. The ID and title can be different, and that's okay.

[contact-form-7 id="6" title="Rubenz Contact Form Column"]

Now edit a page with Elementor where you want to place your contact form. Use the standard Shortcode Elementor widget.

Paste your shortcode in that field and click Apply

▶️ Step 3.

Your contact form is ready now, and you can test if it works. If you'd like to change labels for the fields, button, or heading, you can do this by going back to the admin panel to Contact → Contact Forms → Rubenz Contact Form Column.

Missing the form shortcode?

In case you don’t see an imported shortcode (which ships together with the demo content), you can create a new one manually. Just add a new contact form in Contact → Contact Forms and paste this HTML code in the Form tab:

<div class="row form__header">
  <div class="col form__col">
    <h2>Write Us Some Words</h2>
  </div>
</div>
<div class="row form__row">
  <div class="col form__col">
    <label class="input-float js-input-float">
      [text* your-name class:input-float__input]
      <span class="input-float__label">Your Name</span>
    </label>
  </div>
</div>
<div class="row form__row">
  <div class="col form__col">
    <label class="input-float js-input-float">
      [email* your-email class:input-float__input]
      <span class="input-float__label">Your Email</span>
    </label>
  </div>
</div>
<div class="row form__row">
  <div class="col form__col">
    <label class="input-float js-input-float">
      [textarea your-message class:input-float__input class:input-float__input_textarea rows:3]
      <span class="input-float__label">Your Message</span>
    </label>
  </div>
</div>
<div class="row form__row">
  <div class="col form__col form__col_submit">
    <button class="button button_fullwidth button_black button_solid wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-submit" type="submit"><span>Send Message</span></button>
  </div>
</div>
