Wordpress Form Processing

Question

I need to add the base page of a form on a website that works as part of WordPress.

I have ready-made raw materials: Client side: html form layout, css and jquery validation code. On the server side: the php function of the form handler processes the $ _POST [] data.

My problem is integrating this code into a Wordpress environment.

I looked at some plugins, but they do much more than I would like, and they also have their own check, which is cumbersome to change.

Can anyone suggest a good form plugin that only allows frameworks? Or should I write a plugin myself.

Thanks.

You can create a page template in the theme folder that you are using that can handle this. Just add your own PHP and xHTML code for this form. When you configure the action of the form, all you need to do is set it up for publication, and the page will publish for itself. This may require you to add additional logic to check if $ _POST vases are installed and process them if they are, but this is easy, clean, and also allows you to provide the user with a status message if you do any validation actions success / failure.

Alternatively, you can use the following plugins that do this cinch:

• Cforms ii
• Contact Form 7
• Gravity forms (Premium Plugin)
