How to add "contact form" in wordpress

[sanusense]

Hello, I got an outdated version of Wordpress in which "Add Form" tab isn't directly available on my editor box.

So I gotta need some responsive shortcodes for creating a custom form.

I tried this but didn't happen for me -
[contact-form]
[contact-field label="Name" type="name" required="true" /]
[contact-field label="Email" type="email" required="true" /]
[contact-field label="Website" type="url" /]
[contact-field label="Comment" type="textarea" required="true" /]
[/contact-form]


Any other leads you would like to mention

I sure you are using a plugin for that code? which plugin are you using? and why don't use contactform7 for more customizations and features. It's easy to add to pages that we want.

I'm not using any plugins just tried to add through editor box, sure I think I should try some plugins.

[/contact-form]

This code is wrong and you should install a plugin for it, add [URLnf="http://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/"]this plugin[/URLnf] from wordpress, after installed, make any changes and add code to your page you want to show form on. It's all you need to do.

Contact Form 7 is your friend.

Easy to use and customise through CSS, pretty lightweight for a WP plugin

For contact form I always prefer to use plugin. In fact I add plugin for one of my recent blog. I am using contact form 7 plugins.

There are many plugins out there to help you create a contact form easily. I often use easy contact form or contact form 7.
