Spread the love

Create a custom WordPress plugin to Saving Contact Form 7 Data. Creating a WordPress plugin to display Contact Form 7 submissions in the WordPress dashboard involves a few steps. Here’s a simplified example to get you started:

Create a new folder for your plugin: In your WordPress plugins directory (usually wp-content/plugins/), create a new folder. Let’s name it cf7-submissions-dashboard.
Create the main plugin file: Inside the cf7-submissions-dashboard folder, create a PHP file. Let’s name it cf7-submissions-dashboard.php.
