Go to Echozat Leads > Add New Form in the WordPress admin. Give your form a title, then click the field-type buttons (Text, Email, Textarea, etc.) to insert shortcodes into the editor. Add any surrounding HTML labels or copy as needed, then click Save . A ready-to-use embed shortcode will appear on the form page.

How do I embed a form on a page?

After saving a form, copy the shortcode displayed on the form detail page (e.g. [echozat_leads_capture id="abc123xyz"] ) and paste it into any page, post, block, or widget where shortcodes are supported.

How do I make a field required?

Append an asterisk ( * ) directly after the field type tag, with no space. For example:

[text* your-name] [email* your-email]

Fields without an asterisk are optional.

Can I use multiple forms on the same page?

Yes. Each form is identified by a unique hash, and all field IDs and name attributes are prefixed with that hash, so multiple forms on the same page will not conflict.

How do I add Google reCAPTCHA to a form?

• [form-id] — the internal form ID
• [submission-id] — the response row ID

How do I duplicate a form?

On the All Forms list, click the Duplicate action link next to any form. A copy of the form is created with all settings intact; existing responses are not copied.

Is the form compatible with page caching plugins?

The form is submitted via a standard HTML POST, so cached pages work normally. The nonce token embedded in the form will expire after the default WordPress nonce lifetime (24 hours). For very long cache TTLs, consider configuring your caching plugin to exclude pages that contain the form shortcode, or regenerate nonces via AJAX.

Does the plugin delete my data when deactivated?

No. Deactivating the plugin preserves all stored forms and responses. Data is only removed when the plugin is fully uninstalled (deleted) through Plugins > Installed Plugins > Delete .

What PHP and WordPress versions are required?

PHP 7.4 or higher and WordPress 6.0 or higher.
