2
Install the Formcrier plugin
The plugin is waiting for its place in the WordPress.org directory. Until it's there, email [email protected] and we'll send it to you, or use the script, which works with the same form plugins.

Choose where alerts go
In Formcrier, connect WhatsApp by scanning a QR code, or add a mobile number, Telegram, a Slack or Teams channel, or an email address. Then press Send test alert.
How it works with Formidable Forms
- Only valid entries
- Formcrier waits for Formidable to accept the entry, whether it shows a message or redirects.
- Multi-page forms
- A multi-page form alerts you once, when it is finished.
- Nothing changes
- Your form actions and emails carry on as they are. Formcrier only listens.
Questions
No. The Formcrier plugin lists your forms and you switch on the ones you want.
Not with the plugin, which sends from your server. With the script alone, a form that reloads the page is still sent, and its page in your dashboard says the form's success wasn't confirmed.
