About 99Forms
From the official readme · v1.0.0Description
99Forms is a lightweight, Gutenberg-native contact form builder built for WordPress 6.8+. Every form field is a proper block — drag, drop, and configure directly inside the editor. No shortcodes, no page builders required.
Why 99Forms?
Most form plugins were built before the block editor existed. They bolt on Gutenberg support as an afterthought — a single shortcode block wrapping a separate form builder UI. 99Forms is built block-first from day one.
Available Field Blocks
- Text, Email, Password, Number, Hidden input
- Textarea
- Checkbox
- Radio buttons
- Select dropdown
- Country picker (with phone code)
- File upload
- reCAPTCHA v2
Form Features
- Honeypot spam protection (built-in, no config needed)
- Google reCAPTCHA v2 support
- Configurable success and error messages
- Post-submission redirect URL
- Hide form after successful submission
- Server-side file upload validation (type + size)
Admin Features
- Submissions table with per-form filtering

- Global field width control

External Services
This plugin optionally uses Google reCAPTCHA v2 to protect forms from spam.
When the reCAPTCHA field is added to a form, the Google reCAPTCHA script is
loaded from Google’s servers and the user’s response token is sent to Google
for verification on form submission.
Service: Google reCAPTCHA
Data sent: CAPTCHA response token, IP address (handled by Google)
Condition: Only when a form with the reCAPTCHA block is submitted
Terms of Service: https://policies.google.com/terms

Frequently asked questions
Does this work with the classic editor?
No. 99Forms is built exclusively for the Gutenberg block editor (WordPress 6.8+). It has no shortcode or classic editor support by design.
Where are form submissions stored?
Submissions are stored in a custom database table (wp_nnforms_submissions) created on plugin activation. View them under 99Forms → Submissions in the admin.
How do I filter submissions by form?
On the Submissions page, use the “Choose a form” dropdown at the top and click Filter.
Is the honeypot spam protection always active?
Honeypot is enabled by default on each form. You can disable it per-form from the Form block settings in the editor sidebar.
Can I have multiple forms on the same page?
Yes. Each Form block gets a unique ID automatically.
What file types are allowed for file upload fields?
Currently: JPEG, PNG, and PDF. Maximum file size is 2MB per upload.
