Rayo Contact Form Notifications for Slack

Rayo Contact Form Notifications for Slack connects your WordPress site to Slack so your team is notified instantly when a new lead is submitted through any of these form plugins:

• Formidable Forms
• Contact Form 7
• WPForms
• Gravity Forms
• Ninja Forms

You only need one of these installed for the plugin to work — install more than one and you can route forms from each of them to Slack side by side (a Formidable form and a WPForms form can both notify Slack independently, even to different channels).

When a visitor submits a mapped form, the plugin builds a polished Slack message using Block Kit and posts it to your chosen channel. No Zapier or third-party middleware required.

This plugin is an independent, third-party integration and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Slack Technologies, LLC, or by the makers of Formidable Forms, Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms, or Ninja Forms. “Slack” is a trademark of Slack Technologies, LLC. “Formidable Forms,” “Contact Form 7,” “WPForms,” “Gravity Forms,” and “Ninja Forms” are trademarks of their respective owners, used here only to describe compatibility.

Features

• Multi-plugin support – Formidable Forms, Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms, and Ninja Forms are all supported. Only plugins actually active on your site appear as options.
• Multiple form → channel mappings – Add a mapping per form, each with its own Form Plugin, Form, and (optionally) its own Slack channel. Mix forms from different plugins freely.
• Default Channel ID – Set one fallback channel for every mapping; only override it per-mapping when a specific form needs to go somewhere else.
• Dynamic field mapping – Pick real fields from the selected form (fetched live from that plugin) and assign each one a custom label shown in Slack — no manual field-ID guessing.
• Drag-to-reorder fields – Reorder a mapping’s field list by dragging, so the Slack message shows fields in the order that makes sense.
• Email & Message roles – Flag one field as the reply email (powers a one-click “Reply via Email” button) and one as the main message body — everything else renders as label:value detail rows.
• Slack Block Kit messages – Header, alert text, structured lead fields, customer message, and the reply button, all customisable.
• Bot token encrypted at rest – The Slack Bot Token is encrypted before being stored in the database.
• Full admin settings UI – Configure credentials, mappings, and message copy from the WordPress admin, with a live Slack message preview.
• Verify Connection & Send Test Message – Confirm your Bot Token and channel work, and preview real Slack delivery, before going live.
• Activity log – Review the last 50 send attempts with plugin, form ID, HTTP status, and Slack response details.
• Optional @channel mention – Alert the whole channel on every new lead.
• Customisable copy – Override header, alert, and footer text or use smart defaults based on your site name.

• WordPress 5.8 or later
• PHP 7.4 or later
