Neutrope Lead Desk for Contact Form 7
·
Save Contact Form 7 submissions to your database and manage them as leads in the WordPress admin (list, detail, status, notes, CSV export).
Neutrope Lead Desk for Contact Form 7 captures every Contact Form 7 submission into a dedicated database table and provides a simple WordPress admin interface for managing those submissions as leads.
The free version is intentionally focused: it saves submissions reliably, gives you an admin list/detail UI, lets you change status, add internal notes, and export to CSV. It does this without pulling in external services, trackers, or upsell banners on unrelated screens.
Key features
- Automatic capture of every Contact Form 7 submission into a dedicated table (
{prefix}nldcf7_entries) - The full submission payload is always stored as JSON, so nothing you asked users to type is lost
- Mapped columns for name, email, phone, and company are extracted automatically using a configurable candidate list
- Admin list screen with filtering by keyword, status, form, and date range, plus bulk actions (status change, trash, mark spam)
- Detail screen with all submitted fields, submission metadata, status management, and internal team notes
- CSV export (UTF-8 with BOM, CRLF) with date/status/form/spam filters — streamed in chunks for large datasets
- Attachment metadata capture (file name, MIME type, size). The files themselves remain with Contact Form 7’s default handling
- Privacy-friendly defaults: IP capture is OFF by default
- Opt-in data deletion on uninstall (off by default so accidental deletes don’t nuke your leads)
- Extensibility via action/filter hooks:
nldcf7_after_entry_saved,nldcf7_after_note_added,nldcf7_after_status_changed,nldcf7_entry_data_before_insert,nldcf7_export_columns,nldcf7_export_row,nldcf7_statuses,nldcf7_required_capability
