AI Forms

AI Forms builds contact and lead forms inside WordPress - fields, notifications, entries, and spam defenses - without an external form SaaS.

What it does

Section titled “What it does”
  • Admin hub WP PowerSuite -> AI Forms with Forms, Entries, and Settings.
  • Create forms from templates or the builder; field types include text, email, textarea, number, phone, select, radio, checkbox, file, date/time, URL, hidden, and more.
  • Front-end shortcode [basic_form id="123"]; AJAX submit with success message (and Premium redirect / auto-reply options).
  • Stores submissions in a dedicated entries table; mark read/unread, bulk actions, file download for uploads.
  • Notification emails to admins; optional honeypot / timing checks on submit.
  • Settings: AI Assistant provider/model (keys under Settings -> AI Connections).
  • Premium (licensed): AI Form Builder, CAPTCHA providers (simple / Google / Turnstile), conditional logic, form design, auto-replies, redirects. Free plans keep core forms and field types.

When to use it

Section titled “When to use it”

Enable it if:

  • You need contact or lead forms without Gravity Forms / Formidable.
  • Entries should stay in WordPress for the site owner.
  • You want optional AI-assisted form generation when licensed.

How to enable it

Section titled “How to enable it”
  1. Go to WP PowerSuite -> Modules and enable AI Forms.
  2. Open WP PowerSuite -> AI Forms.
  3. Add a form (template or blank), configure fields and notification settings, save.
  4. Copy [basic_form id="…"] from the form editor onto a page.
  5. For AI: activate a license, connect a provider under Settings -> AI Connections, enable AI Assistant on the Forms Settings tab.

How to test it

Section titled “How to test it”
  • Publish a page with [basic_form id="…"]; submit as a visitor.
  • ✅ Pass: success message; row appears under Entries.
  • Confirm the notification email arrives (pair with Email Delivery (SMTP) if needed).
  • ✅ Pass: inbox receives the submission mail.
  • With Premium + AI enabled, generate a form from a prompt.
  • ✅ Pass: new form fields are created in the editor.
  • ❌ Fail: check the form has fields, spam checks are not blocking you, and mail delivery works.

Troubleshooting

Section titled “Troubleshooting”
  • AI Form Builder premium message. Activate the license; enable AI Assistant and configure AI Connections.
  • File upload asks for CAPTCHA. Uploads can require a CAPTCHA provider on the form (Premium).
  • Too many submissions. Rate limiting is intentional - wait and retry.
  • Mail not sending. Configure Email Delivery (SMTP).
