Contact Form 7 Styler Free

How to set up and style the Contact Form 7 Styler widget in Elementor.

Contact Form 7 Styler places one of your Contact Form 7 forms on the page and lets you style its labels, fields, submit button and messages with Elementor controls. Use it when you want a form to match your design without writing CSS.

Part of: Bright Addons (free). Before you start: The Contact Form 7 plugin, installed and active, with at least one form created.

Set it up

  1. Install and activate Contact Form 7 and create a form there.

  2. Drag the Contact Form 7 Styler widget onto the page.

  3. In Form, choose your form under Contact Form.

  4. Switch on Hide Label Text or Full Width Button if you want them.

  5. Open the Style tab and set up Fields: colors, border, radius, padding and Space Between Fields.

  6. Style the Submit Button section, then set the colors in Messages.

  7. Send a test entry on the live page to check the error and success messages.

Style options

These sections are in the Style tab.

  • Labels

    color and typography of the labels. This section is hidden when Hide Label Text is on.

  • Fields

    typography, text color, placeholder color, background, border color, focus border color, border width, border radius, padding, space between fields and message box height.

  • Submit Button

    typography, normal and hover colors for text, background and border, border width, border radius and padding.

  • Messages

    field error color, success message color and error message color.

Tips

  • Field styling applies to text type inputs, dropdowns and text areas. Checkboxes, radio buttons and file upload fields keep their own look.

  • Hide Label Text hides the text inside label elements and keeps the fields that sit inside them. It works with forms where each field is wrapped in its label, as in the default Contact Form 7 template.

  • The widget only changes how the form looks. Fields, mail settings and messages are still edited in Contact Form 7.

  • If no form is chosen, the editor shows a reminder and the live page shows nothing.
