About this plugin
BBForms is a high-performance, code-based WordPress form builder designed for speed, flexibility, and absolute control.
By using shortcode-style BBCode syntax, BBForms eliminates heavy drag-and-drop bloat while giving complete control to build complex forms, handle custom actions, and generate fully functional forms in seconds with natural language AI.
Whether you need a simple contact form, multi-column survey, or advanced lead capture system, BBForms loads only when needed with an ultra-light footprint.
