FormLedger saves every successful Contact Form 7 submission to your site’s own database, so a submission is never lost when an email fails to arrive. Entries are managed from a native WordPress admin screen under Contact → CF7 Entries.
The plugin works entirely inside your WordPress site. It does not send submission data to any external service, it contains no tracking or telemetry, and there are no limits on the number of forms or entries.
Requires Contact Form 7. FormLedger is an add-on for Contact Form 7, which must be installed and active. WordPress will ask you to install Contact Form 7 first if it is missing.
This is an independent plugin. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Contact Form 7 project.
