Really rubbish

Hi @alexandresta,

Thank you for the honest feedback!

Entries in WPForms Lite are not stored by default. However, enabling the Lite Connect option will back up the entries submitted through your forms. This means that if you decide to upgrade to WPForms Pro, you can restore your entries and have instant access to reports. Please check this guide for more details about this feature.

Please also know that you should be able to set up form notification emails in WPForms Lite so that you will receive the entries submitted by your users. Here’s the tutorial with all the details. In Lite, you’re able to set up one notification email — however, you can send this one notification to as many different email addresses as you’d like.

If you are not receiving the email notifications, I’ll recommend you to check that your form notification settings are configured correctly by following our tutorial.

If your notification settings are correct, the issue is likely because the emails sent from WordPress are not authenticated (unlike emails sent directly from dedicated email service providers). As a result, they are likely to be filtered by the receiving mail server.
To resolve email delivery issues like this, you can configure an SMTP plugin on your site so that emails are sent as authenticated. We have an article with a list of recommended SMTP options and links to their setup tutorials.

And if you’d like more help with the email delivery issue or using WPForms Lite in general, please feel welcome to post in our WPForms Lite support forum.

Thanks!

They tricked you too @alexandresta.
This tool is not free, they hold your data hostage till you pay.

Hi @patrickttt,

I apologize if this created any confusion.

As I shared above, entries in WPForms Lite are not stored by default. We do mention this on our entries page as well.

If you have any suggestions on how we can better clarify this, please let me know and I’ll share those with our team. Here’s a screenshot with our current wording from the Lite Entries page and the option to enable Lite Connect.

Again, I’m so sorry that the experience was not up to par, and if you have any additional questions or thoughts that could help us with improving this, be sure to let us know.

Thanks!
