Adding contact form in WordPress blogs are pretty much is easier than in Blogger . Though there are so many WordPress contact form plugins ,here in my blog I use a plugin called Contact form 7 .The advantage of Contact form 7 is that here we can add options to include captcha ,allow users to upload files ,add quiz , radio buttons ,text etc . WordPress 2.8 users can install contact from 7 via plugin installer . After installation ,move on to form settings ( Click on Contact from bottom left side) . There will be a form ,contact form1 created by default . Next step is to create new blog page . Create a new page and name it contact or whatever you want . Now copy the brown underlined code in contact form1 , paste it to the new page created and publish . You will see the new contact form on page refresh .Messages will be sent to the email address provided during WordPress installation . Further you can enhance the basic form by adding captcha security and option to upload files to blog administrator .
