Open Form Builder

A CF7-style form builder with 5 starter templates, multi-step wizards, conditional logic, image-card choice fields, a capacity-aware session picker, two pricing models (sessions or priced options/quantities), per-form branding, Stripe Checkout, date/time fields, conditional emails, Mailchimp/MailerLite sync, Google Sheet export and CF7 import. Forms are declarative JSON schemas.

Description

Open Form Builder stores each form as a clean, declarative JSON schema rendered to front-end HTML by a render engine. Drop a form anywhere with the shortcode:

[open_form id="123"]

Features:

• React admin builder using @wordpress/components (matches Gutenberg).
• Multi-step (wizard) forms with drag-and-drop fields.
• 5 starter templates (Contact, Lesson & Session Booking, Course & Certification Enrolment, Service Booking, Quote / Estimate Calculator) — pick one to prefill a working, on-brand form; every field, price and colour stays editable.
• Field types: text, email, tel, number, date, time, textarea, select, dropdown, radio, checkbox, HTML content block, and a capacity-aware session picker.
• Radio/checkbox fields can render as an image-card grid (with a WP media-library picker) instead of a plain list — for courses, services or products.
• Per-form branding: accent colour, text colour, background and corner radius, applied everywhere on the front end (buttons, active steps, selected cards).
• Per-field conditional show/hide.
• Personalisation tags ({field_name}) in confirmation content and emails.
• Two pricing models:
  • By sessions — base price + tiers with per-block discounts in $ or %.
  • By selected options — a base fee plus per-option prices (courses, services, add-ons) and number fields with a unit price (e.g. rooms x $30). Ideal for bookings, service quotes and course sign-ups.
• Stripe Checkout; session slots deplete on payment success only (first-pay-wins).
• Confirmation + receipt emails via wp_mail with CF7-style conditional routing.
• Mailchimp / MailerLite audience sync on completed submissions.
• Google Sheet export via a Google Apps Script web app (no OAuth).
• Import CF7 form fields + mail templates.

Changelog

0.4.0

• 5 built-in starter templates covering the most common use cases: contact, lesson/session booking, course & certification enrolment, service booking, and a no-payment quote calculator. Pick one from the "Add new form" screen.
• Image-card layout for radio/checkbox fields (with a WP media picker per option) — built for course, product and service pickers.
• Per-form branding: accent/text/background colour and corner radius, set on the Settings tab and applied across the whole front-end form via CSS custom properties, with a live preview in the builder.
• General front-end visual pass: the form now renders as a shadowed surface card; refined buttons, chips, progress steps and pricing summary.

0.3.0

• New "priced options" pricing model: per-option prices on select/radio/checkbox fields, plus number x unit-price, with a live total and Stripe charge. Unlocks course sign-ups, service bookings and quote calculators.
• New field types: date and time.
• Mailchimp / MailerLite subscriber sync on completed submissions.
• Fixed a front-end error that broke live totals when a session picker had a maximum set.

0.2.1

• Stripe Checkout, conditional emails, Google Sheet export and CF7 import.
• Capacity-aware session picker and pricing-rules engine.

0.1.0

• Initial build.
