Send Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, or Ninja Forms Submissions to a 3rd-party Service, like a CRM. Multiple configurable services, custom field mapping. Provides hooks and filters for pre/post processing of results. Allows you to send separate emails, or attach additional results to existing emails. Comes with a couple examples of hooks for common CRMs (listrak, mailchimp, salesforce). Check out the FAQ section for add-on plugins that extend this functionality, like sending XML/SOAP posts, setting headers, and dynamic fields.
The plugin essentially makes a remote request (POST) to a service URL, passing along remapped form submission values.
Based on idea by Alex Hager “How to Integrate Salesforce in Contact Form 7“.
Original plugin, Contact Form 7: 3rdparty Integration developed with the assistance of AtlanticBT. Current plugin sponsored by Stephen P. Kane Consulting. Please submit bugs / support requests to GitHub issue tracker in addition to the WordPress Support Forums because the Forums do not send emails.
Hooks
Please note that this documentation is in flux, and may not be accurate for latest rewrite 1.4.0
add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_a#', $response, $param_ref);
- hook for each service, indicated by the
#
– this is given in the ‘Hooks’ section of each service - provide a function which takes
$response, &$results
as arguments - allows you to perform further processing on the service response, and directly alter the processing results, provided as
array('success'=>false, 'errors'=>false, 'attach'=>'', 'message' => '');
- success =
true
orfalse
– change whether the service request is treated as “correct” or not - errors = an array of error messages to return to the form
- attach = text to attach to the end of the email body
- message = the message notification shown (from CF7 ajax response) below the form
- success =
- note that the basic “success condition” may be augmented here by post processing
- hook for each service, indicated by the
add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service', $response, $param_ref, $sid);
- same as previous hook, but not tied to a specific service
add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_post_#, ...
- hook for each service, indicated by the
#
– this is given in the ‘Hooks’ section of each service - allows you to programmatically alter the request parameters sent to the service
- should return updated
$post
array
- hook for each service, indicated by the
add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_post', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 4);
- in addition to service-specific with suffix
_a#
; accepts params$post
,$service
,$form
,$sid
- in addition to service-specific with suffix
add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_args', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 3);
- alter the args array sent to
wp_remote_post
- allows you to add headers or override the existing settings (timeout, body)
- if you return an array containing the key
response_bypass
, it will skip the normal POST and instead use that value as the 3rdparty response; note that it must match the format of a regularwp_remote_post
response. - Note: if using
response_bypass
you should consider including the original arguments in the callback result for debugging purposes.
- alter the args array sent to
-
add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_remote_failure', 'mycf7_fail', 10, 5);
-
hook to modify the Form (CF7 or GF) object if service failure of any kind occurs — use like:
function mycf7_fail(&$cf7, $debug, $service, $post, $response) {
$cf7->skip_mail = true; // stop email from being sent
// hijack message to notify user
///TODO: how to modify the “mail_sent” variable so the message isn’t green? on_sent_ok hack?
$cf7->messages[‘mail_sent_ok’] = ‘Could not complete mail request:** ‘ . $response[‘safe_message’];
} -
needs some way to alter the
mail_sent
return variable in CF7 to better indicate an error – no way currently to access it directly.
-
add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_settings', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 3)
- accepts params
$eid
,$P
,$entity
corresponding to the index of each service entity and this plugin’s namespace, and the$entity
settings array - allows you to add a section to each service admin settings
- name form fields with plugin namespace to automatically save:
$P[$eid][YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]
$rarr;Forms3rdPartyIntegration[0][YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]
- accepts params
add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_metabox', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 2)
- accepts params
$P
,$entity
corresponding to the index of each service entity and this plugin’s namespace, and the$options
settings array (representing the full plugin settings) - allows you to append a metabox (or anything else) to the plugin admin settings page
- name form fields with plugin namespace to automatically save:
$P[YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]
$rarr;Forms3rdPartyIntegration[YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]
- accepts params
add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_debug_message', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 5);
- bypass/alternate debug logging
add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_plugin_hooks', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 1);
- Accepts an array of contact form plugin hooks to attach F3p to, and returns that array. Modify result to attach to additional plugin hooks, like GF edit.
add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_url', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 2);
- hook a function that takes the
$service_url, $post_args
and returns the endpoint$url
- used to modify the submission url based on mappings or other information
$post_args
contains thebody
and otherwp_remote_post
details
- hook a function that takes the

સ્થાપન
- Unzip, upload plugin folder to your plugins directory (
/wp-content/plugins/
) - Make sure at least one of Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, or Ninja Forms is installed
- Activate plugin
- Go to new admin subpage “3rdparty Services” under the CF7 “Contact” menu or Gravity Forms “Forms” menu and configure services + field mapping.
- Turn on ‘debug mode’ to get emailed a copy of the submission+response data, until you’re satisfied everything works, then turn it off
એફએક્યુ (FAQ)
- I need help / My form isn’t working
-
Turn on ‘debug mode’ from the admin page to send you an email with:
- the current plugin configuration, including field mappings
- the user submission (as provided by CF7/GF/Ninja)
- the post as sent to the service (applied mapping)
- the response sent back from the service, which hopefully includes error codes or explanations (often is the raw HTML of a success/failure page)
Submit an issue to the [GitHub issue tracker][] in addition to / instead of the WP Support Forums.
- How do I add / configure a service?
-
See [Screenshots][] for visual examples.
Essentially,
- Name your service.
- Enter the submission URL — if your “service” provides an HTML form, you would use the form action here.
- Choose which forms will submit to this service (“Attach to Forms”).
- Set the default “success condition”, or leave blank to ignore (or if using post processing, see [Hooks][] – this just looks for the provided text in the service response, and if present assumes “success”
- Set an optional “failure message” to show if the remote request fails. Can include the “nice explanation” as well as the original message provided by the contact form plugin.
- Allow hooks for further processing – unchecking it just saves minimal processing power, as it won’t try to execute filters.
- Map your form submission values (from the CF7/GF field tags) to expected fields for your service.
- 1:1 mapping given as the name (from the HTML input) of the CF7/GF field and the name of the 3rdparty field
- For GF and Ninja Forms, you may map either by the field name or the field label
- You can also provide static values by checking the “Is Value?” checkbox and providing the value in the “Form Submission Field” column.
- The “Label” column is optional, and just provided for administrative notes, i.e. so you can remind yourself what each mapping pertains to.
- Add, remove, and rearrange mapping – basically just for visual clarity.
- Use the provided hooks (as given in the bottom of the service block).
- Add new services as needed, drag/drop mappings and service boxes.
- How can I pre/post process the request/results?
-
See section Hooks. See plugin folder
/3rd-parties
for example code for some common CRMs, which you can either directly include or copy to your code. - I need to submit multiple values as…
-
- By default, if more than one value appears in the post request for the same field/key, they will be joined by the ‘separator’ value like
&post-values=a,b,c
. - However, if you use
[]
as the separator it will instead create multiple keys like&post-values[]=a&post-values[]=b&...
. - Use
[#]
to retain the numerical index:&post-values[0]=a&post-values[1]=b&...
- Use
[%]
to place the numerical index at desired location; specifically useful with nested fields via Xpost below (and issues #11 and #7).
If you instead need to combine/nest fields, check out Forms: 3rdparty Xpost.
- By default, if more than one value appears in the post request for the same field/key, they will be joined by the ‘separator’ value like
- How do I make a GET request instead of POST?
-
Since v1.7.6, it’s an admin setting for GET and POST, but for anything other than those two that you’d write a hook.
from https://wordpress.org/support/topic/method-get?replies=2#post-5996489
See ‘Hooks’ section, #5 of https://wordpress.org/plugins/forms-3rdparty-integration/other_notes/ and the source code.
You’ll need to perform
wp_remote_get
inside that filter and set$post_args['response_bypass']
with the response, something like:function my_3rdparty_get_override($post_args, $service, $form) { $post_args['response_bypass'] = wp_remote_get($service['url'], $post_args); return $post_args; }
- How do I dynamically change the URL?
-
Use the hook
Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_url
. (see “Hooks” section) - What about Hidden Fields?
-
Using hidden fields can provide an easier way to include arbitrary values on a per-form basis, rather than a single “Is Value?” in the Service mapping, as you can then put your form-specific value in the hidden field, and map the hidden field name generically.
For convenience, you can install the Contact Form 7 Modules: Hidden Fields. This plugin originally included the relevant code, but it was causing issues on install, so is no longer bundled with it.
- How do I export/import settings?
-
Use the “Forms 3rdparty Migration” plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/forms-3rdparty-migrate/, which lets you export and import the raw settings as JSON.
You can also export settings from the original plugin [Contact Form 7: 3rdparty Integration][] and “upgrade” them for this plugin (although > 1.6.1 you will need to reselect forms).
Also at https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-migrate - How do I map url parameters?
-
Use the “Dynamic Fields” plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/forms-3rdparty-dynamic-fields/
Also at https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-dynamicfields - How do I send XML/submit to SOAP?
-
For simple xml containers try the “Forms 3rdparty Xpost” plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/forms-3rd-party-xpost/
Also at https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-xpost - How do I set headers?
-
You can also set headers with “Forms 3rdparty Xpost” plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/forms-3rd-party-xpost/
Also at https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-xpost - How do I show a custom message on the confirmation screen?
-
The failure message is shown by default if the 3rdparty post did not succeed. You can add custom messaging to the plugin’s (GF, CF7, Ninja) email or success screen response with something like:
class MyPlugin { public function MyPlugin() { add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service', array(&$this, 'adjust_response'), 10, 2); } public function adjust_response($body, $refs) { // use 'attach' to inject to regular email // use 'message' to inject to page $refs['attach'] = 'custom message in email'; $refs['message'] = 'custom message on page'; } } new MyPlugin(); // attach hook
- How do I conditionally submit? (if field == …)
-
Use hook ‘…use_submission’ to check the form submission (pre-mapping), making sure to pick the appropriate scenario, like:
add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_use_submission', 'f3i_conditional_submit', 10, 3); function f3i_conditional_submit($use_this_form, $submission, $sid) { // if there was a specific value -- skip if(isset($submission['maybe-send']) && 'no' == $submission['maybe-send']) return false; // if there was a specific value -- use if(isset($submission['maybe-send']) && 'yes' == $submission['maybe-send']) return $use_this_form; // or true, i guess // if there was a value for it (e.g. for checkboxes) -- skip if(isset($submission['if-not-send'])) return false; // if there was a value for it (e.g. for checkboxes) -- use if(isset($submission['if-send']) && !empty($submission['if-send'])) return $use_this_form; // or true, i guess return $use_this_form; // or `false`, depending on your desired default }
If you want to check after the fields have been mapped, you can “reuse” the hook ‘…service_filter_args’ and return
false
to skip, rather than bypass:add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_args', 'f3i_conditional_post', 10, 3); function f3i_conditional_post($post_args, $service, $form) { // your skip scenarios, checking `body` subarray instead if(isset($post_args['body']['maybe-send']) && ...) return false; // regular behavior return $post_args; }
- How do I resend a service call?
-
Using public instance functions
send
andhandle_results
:$f3p = Forms3rdPartyIntegration::$instance; $debug = $f3p->get_settings(); // $sid - maybe get it from the current filter // $form - maybe get it from the current filter // $submission - probably save it somewhere, or rebuilt it from a database entry, etc // $service = $f3p->get_services()[$sid]; $sendResult = $f3p->send($submission, $form, $service, $sid, $debug); if($sendResult === Forms3rdPartyIntegration::RET_SEND_STOP || $sendResult === Forms3rdPartyIntegration::RET_SEND_SKIP) return; $response = $sendResult['response']; $post_args = $sendResult['post_args']; return $f3p->handle_results($submission, $response, $post_args, $form, $service, $sid, $debug);
- How do I include part of the response in another service call?
-
See “Forms: 3rdparty Post Again”
- Github https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-postagain
- WordPress https://wordpress.org/plugins/forms-3rdparty-post-again/
- How do I include part of the response the contact form results?
-
See “Forms: 3rdparty Inject Results”
- Github https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-inject-results
- WordPress https://wordpress.org/plugins/forms-3rdparty-inject-results/
However, currently only confirmed working with Gravity Forms.

ચેન્જલૉગ
1.8
- copy service button
- Ninja Forms are back! Can use Ninja Forms plugin v3.0+ again.
1.7.9
- debug message truncation with configure hooks
- use hook
...debug_truncation
to set field length limits for each section
1.7.8
- adding per-service delimiter, supports newlines
- ‘add new service’ button after metaboxes
- minor ui fixes
1.7.7

1.7.6
- exposing http method (get/post); result redirection
1.7.5
- late-bind GF confirmation for script tags
1.7.4
- another slight fix to make GF Resend do submission hooks too (so Reformat will work with it as well)
1.7.3
- slight refactor of
before_send
to make reposting GF submissions easier
1.7.2.1
- fix minor conflict between Inject Results and Post-Again
1.7.2
- added injection hooks for Forms: 3rdparty Inject Results — use via
$form = apply_filters(Forms3rdPartyIntegration::$instance->N('inject'), $form, $values_to_inject);
1.7
- refactored internal methods to make them reusable externally, specifically for ‘forms-3rdparty-postagain’ plugin
1.6.6.5
- added URL filter to allow customizing GET requests with post body arguments, or shortcodes
- filter added to fplugin_base to allow multiple attachments per github #62

- final bugfix to #55 (default options
mode
array) - tried to address Xpost issue #7, but not the right place for it
1.6.6.3
1.6.6.1
- debug logging hook
- fixed #52 – some hosting providers rejected arbitrary sender addresses
- more options for debug mail failure logging
1.6.6
- Can now map GF and Ninja Forms by field label as well as id per issue #35 (map by name)
1.6.5.1
- fix Github issue #43 (valid success response codes)
- fix Github issue #27 (admin label)

- defined upgrade path
Due to the new common form extension base, the way forms are identified in the settings has been changed.
Deactivating and reactivating the plugin (which happens automatically on upgrade, but not FTP or other direct file changes) should correct your existing settings.
Depending on how many services you have configured, the upgrade path may DESELECT your form selections in each service or otherwise break some configurations.
If you are concerned this may affect you, please export the settings so you can reapply your selections.
