FrontElf Fields Bridge for Contact Form 7
FrontElf Fields Bridge for Contact Form 7 provides an ACF and SCF integration for Contact Form 7. It adds ACF field groups directly to each Contact Form 7 form editor.
The plugin adds the Contact Form 7 form post type to the ACF location rules. Field groups assigned to that post type are shown in a dedicated tab in the Contact Form 7 editor and saved together with the form. This allows developers to store editable metadata and settings for each form.
The plugin supports Advanced Custom Fields and Secure Custom Fields. Contact Form 7 and one of those field plugins must be installed and active.
