Summary

In this article, you’ll learn how to create a form using WPForms and map it to Growmatik. In addition, you’ll learn how to filter contacts based on WPForms and create user segments for them. We’ll cover the following topics:


What is WPForms?

WPForms is a popular WordPress contact form plugin that allows you to build different types of forms for your website.


Plugin Integration

Integration is a process that combines different software components to work as a part of a unified system, thus enhancing software functionality. WPForms integration makes it possible to automatically map form attributes to Growmatik. It also creates new contacts in the Growmatik People section when a subscriber registers on your website using WPForms.


Creating/Mapping a form using WPForms plugin

1. Download, install and activate your preferred edition (Lite or Premium versions) .

  • Lite version: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpforms-lite/
