Interesting and subtle approach!
It might just be the form you have always been looking for. I like it. It is subtle, not overwhelmingly complicated and it integrates pretty well in any design!

Impressive work & easy to extend
Dear @michelegiorgi, thank you for this cool plugin. I really enjoy using it and it is and was a pleasure to extend all forms to my needs. Thanks to your documentation in the gist ;)

Best free form I've tried
Thank you for this excellent form. I will be donating. I also don't mind paying for a full lifetime version (please NO subscriptions) for features such as form validation of phone number, emails, etc.. Great job.

This is just LOVE <3
Have a nice day, everybody, this is the best form plugin <3. If there will be a PRO version, I will be the first paying customer. You won't find a better plugin for forms. Wonderful. Great job, Michele. Have a nice day.
