FormsDB – Save Elementor Forms to Google Sheets & Post Type
FormsDB is a useful addon for Elementor Forms that lets you connect Elementor forms with Google Sheets to sync form entries or save form submissions into any WordPress post type.
FormsDB works with both Elementor Pro and Hello Plus forms. It helps you store Hello Plus form submissions in WordPress and also send form data to Google Sheets or use Elementor forms as frontend post submission forms for creating posts, pages, or custom post types.

Important Notice: From version 2.0.0, this plugin has been acquired, fully rebuilt, and rebranded as FormsDB by Cool Plugins. It has been redesigned with new features like Google Sheets sync and frontend post submission, as its earlier functionality is now available within Elementor Pro. If you were using older versions, you can export previous entries from the FormsDB → Old Submissions tab.
