No previous message | Next message →

Hi,

I am looking for an accessible form plugin for WordPress for a local
non-profit who would use this to allow people to sign up for membership.
The form would, once filled out, be sent to the org's dedicated email
account by pressing the submit button.

Through my research, I found this plugin by Mike Cherim but do not know
how up-to-date it is and if it has the "sent to an email account"
functionality. Is anyone familiar with this plugin ? Or does anyone have
other suggestions ?

Thanks,


Catherine

I'm using this one as it is fairly accessible:
http://www.fastsecurecontactform.com/

It does have a CAPTCHA but that can be turned off. There is a lot of
flexibility/customizability which is done in the settings. The coding for
IDs for input boxes is a little sloppy and could be re-written to be more
user friendly. But at least it is coded.

Hey everyone,

I rarely post here, but something caught my attention regarding captchas being turned on and off... Can you turn captchas on and off??? Captchas are my #1 "PET PEEVE"! It seems that most survey sites or contest sites have captchas; some of them are audible and others are almost inaudible. Any suggestion of ways to get around the captcha situation?

Hi Catherine,

I use Mike Cherim's GBCF-v3 contact form script. It's quite good and
accessible, I think. I've modified it a bit, e.g., to include some
"required" and "aria-required" attributes on input elements, and some other
changes, but these were easy enough to do.

You can see how I've implemented it at
http://www.accessibleculture.org/contact/.

Feel free to play with it and send some messages if you want.

Jason

To throw another name into the pile, check out Contact Form 7,
http://contactform7.com/. I looked at it months ago for another list,
I want to say it set up labels correctly on its own.

Thanks to Ryan and Giovanni for your suggestions as well.

Strangely, I did not see your messages go by on the list but found them in
the WebAim list archive. Anyway, thanks again.

Best,


Catherine
