  • Happy Forms - Happy User, but...

    I have had Happy Forms for a long time, but I just recently started using it. The main feature in Pro is Logic Conditions. The integration with different email providers is good.First of all, Senditblue does not exist anymore under this name and should be renamed to BREVO. The form itself has limitations when it comes to fonts and spaces (it's all or nothing), CSS did not do the job in my case. Spaces are the same. It is default, wide or narrow, but nothing in between. For example, I add checkboxes. It is impossible to adjust the distance between Lebel name and checkboxes. I had to add another checkboxes with different Lebel name because I needed. Again, everything is now kind of stuck together and very close. You can only adjust the default, wide or narrow.I prefer closer in this case then far apart, which makes the form longer. First of all not welcome on mobile view. Please add more options or make very clear tutorial how to adjust using CSS. Please add hCapture which is more privacy friendly for EU customers.Please integrate with Elementor if possible. I would like to add popup information on submission. Redirection to another page takes a long time. Redirect information is only in English. Can this be changed?The button color set in the style does not change on the website. It just shows black background and white text. (I suspect interference from another plugin, but not sure yet. I cleared the cache and cookies, but no luck. It stays black and white.UPDATE 2026-08-29luck of support and improvements. No new features as requested.

  • Unverschämt!

    Nicht nur, dass das Plugin nicht auf den neuesten WP Stand gebracht wird, es ist wohl eins der teuersten Plguins ever - wenn man bedenkt, dass man noch nicht mal eine reCapthca Integration ohne kostenpflichtiges Update machen kann. Einfach nur Abzocke - weg mit dem Ding! Eine Unverschämtheit Sollche Programmierer sollte man nicht unterstützen!
