Devex Hub Smart Lead Engine

Devex Hub Smart Lead Engine is more than a contact form — it’s a full lead management system built into WordPress. Most contact form plugins just send you an email and forget the submission. Smart Lead Engine saves every enquiry as a lead in your dashboard, lets your team manage and convert it, and optionally syncs it to a Google Sheet automatically.

No monthly fees. No SaaS subscriptions. No data leaving your server unless you choose to sync it.

Just add [dhle_form] to any page and every contact enquiry becomes a trackable, manageable lead.

Perfect for:

• Small businesses replacing Contact Form 7 or WPForms who want to actually track their enquiries
• Agencies and freelancers who receive client enquiries through their website
• Teams who want to assign, follow up, and convert website contacts without a paid CRM
• Anyone who wants every contact form submission saved automatically to Google Sheets

✅ What Makes It Different From a Normal Contact Form

Most contact form plugins (Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms) send you an email — and that’s it. If you miss the email, the lead is gone. Smart Lead Engine works differently:

• Every submission is permanently saved in your WordPress database as a lead
• You get an admin dashboard showing all leads, their status, and conversion stats
• You can assign leads to team members, add notes, and track progress
• You get a visual Kanban pipeline to move leads from New → Contacted → Converted
• Every submission can be automatically synced to Google Sheets for reporting or sharing

✅ Key Features

• Contact Form — Add [dhle_form] to any page or post. Captures name, email, phone, and message. Works with any theme.
• Leads Dashboard — Every form submission appears as a lead in your admin. Search, filter, assign, and update — all from one screen.
• Visual Kanban Pipeline — Drag-and-drop leads across New / Contacted / Converted columns. See your pipeline at a glance.
• Google Sheets Sync — Every new lead is automatically appended as a row in your own Google Sheet. Full setup guide and the Apps Script code are built right into the Settings page — no external tools needed.
• Email Notifications — Customisable admin notification and lead confirmation emails with {name}, {email}, {phone}, {message} placeholder support.
• Team Assignment — Assign leads to specific admins, agents, or managers.
• Internal Notes — Add private follow-up notes to any lead, shown as a threaded timeline.
• CSV Export — Export all leads to a spreadsheet with one click.
• Custom User Roles — Includes Lead Agent and Lead Manager roles with scoped permissions.
• Spam Protection — Honeypot field blocks bots silently, no CAPTCHA needed.
• AJAX Submission — Form submits without page reload. Instant feedback for visitors.
• Dark Mode Ready — Form adapts to the visitor’s OS colour preference automatically.
• Clean Uninstall — Removes all data, tables, roles, and settings on deletion.

Additional Information

External Services

This plugin optionally connects to Google Apps Script, a free service provided by Google LLC.

• When is it used? Only when you enter a Google Apps Script Web App URL in Lead Engine → Settings. When configured, the plugin sends lead data (name, email, phone, message, submission date, and your site URL) to that URL each time a form is submitted.
• Who controls the script and data? You do. You create and own the Google Apps Script yourself using your own Google account. The plugin does not connect to any Devexhub-owned server or any third-party service.
• Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• Google Apps Script Terms of Service: https://developers.google.com/terms

No data is sent to any external service if you leave the Google Apps Script URL field empty in Settings.
