TimAddons – Submission Log & Automation for Contact Form 7

by Tim Developer

Save and manage Contact Form 7 submissions directly in WordPress.

Contact Form 7 is a powerful and popular WordPress form plugin, but it does not store submitted form entries in the WordPress database by default. If an email notification is delayed, filtered as spam, or fails to arrive, valuable leads and form submissions can be difficult to recover.

Submission Log & Automation for Contact Form 7 automatically saves Contact Form 7 submissions to a dedicated custom MySQL database table, giving you a reliable submission history directly inside your WordPress dashboard.

Search, filter, sort, view, export, and manage your Contact Form 7 submissions from an easy-to-use admin interface. The plugin uses efficient database queries and server-side pagination so you can manage your submissions without loading the entire database at once.

Whether you receive a few submissions or manage a large number of Contact Form 7 entries, TimAddons provides a centralized place to store and manage your form submissions instead of relying only on email notifications.

This plugin is an independent extension for Contact Form 7 and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Contact Form 7 project.

Why Save Contact Form 7 Submissions?

Email notifications are useful, but email should not be the only place where your form submissions exist.

By automatically saving Contact Form 7 submissions to your WordPress database, you can:

  • Keep a history of submitted forms.
  • Search for previous submissions.
  • Filter submissions by form or date.
  • Review submitted information from your WordPress dashboard.
  • Access uploaded attachments.
  • Track which submissions have been reviewed.
  • Add internal notes for follow-up.
  • Export selected submissions when needed.

TimAddons gives you a dedicated place to manage your Contact Form 7 entries without relying solely on email delivery.

Built for Efficient Submission Management

TimAddons stores Contact Form 7 submissions in a dedicated custom database table rather than using WordPress posts or post meta for submission storage.

The submission listing uses efficient database queries and server-side pagination, so only the records required for the current page are loaded. This makes the submission management interface practical for websites that need to manage a growing number of Contact Form 7 submissions.
