Migrate Contact Form 7 (CF7) forms to Gravity Forms (GF) — fields, notifications, confirmations, and entries from CF7DB.

Description

CF7 to GF Migrator helps you seamlessly move from Contact Form 7 (CF7) to Gravity Forms (GF) without losing your data.

What gets migrated

  • Form fields — Text, email, phone, textarea, select, checkbox, radio, file upload, date, number, hidden, and more.
  • Admin Notifications — Recipient, subject, reply-to (mapped to correct Gravity Forms merge tags).
  • Autoresponder (Mail 2) — If active, migrated as a second GF notification.
  • Confirmations — Custom message or page redirect (including redirects set by cf7-grid-layout plugin).
  • Form entries (optional) — Requires the CF7 to Database Extension plugin.

Features

  • Batch migration — migrate all forms at once with a single click.
  • Safe re-migration — re-migrating an existing form updates it without creating duplicates.
  • "Used On" column in the CF7 admin list — see which pages/posts use each form.
  • Entry migration from CF7DB with skip-already-migrated support.

Requirements

Installation

  1. Upload the cf7-to-gf-migrator folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress.
  3. Make sure both Contact Form 7 and Gravity Forms are installed and active.
  4. Go to Forms → CF7 Migrator in your WordPress admin.
  5. Select the forms you want to migrate and click Migrate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this plugin work without Gravity Forms?

No. Gravity Forms is a required dependency. The plugin will show an admin notice if Gravity Forms is not active.

Will re-migrating overwrite my existing Gravity Forms?

Yes. Re-migrating an already-migrated form will update the existing GF form (fields, notifications, confirmations). It will not create duplicate forms.

Can I migrate form entries?

Yes, if you have the CF7 to Database Extension plugin installed. The entry migrator will skip already-migrated entries by default.

What happens to page redirects configured in cf7-grid-layout?

Page redirects set via the cf7-grid-layout plugin (_cf7sg_page_redirect meta) are automatically detected and migrated as GF "page" confirmations.

Are all CF7 field types supported?

Most standard CF7 field types are supported: text, email, tel, textarea, select, checkbox, radio, file, url, number, date, hidden, acceptance, password. Custom/third-party CF7 field types will fall back to a text field.
