      How do you find Contact 7? I have been using that but I've had several people contact me and tell me they try and email me through the Contact 7 form but it doesn't go through. It actually does go through and I usually receive 6 or 7 emails because they keep on trying, but on their end it looks like it doesn't go through.

      I have just switched to a different one for one of my sites to test it and see if it's any better.

    I can't believe how often this post comes up...

    If you go here (sticky at the top of this forum) :
    allinone - WarriorForum - Internet Marketing Forums - Threads Tagged with allinone

    you will find this here :

    http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...fications.html


    I'm probably wasting my time because every other time this thread gets started, my suggestion of using the all in one gets completely ignored and everyone just continues answering the OP...

    Does contact 7 have a confirmation when a message has been sent? This could be the problem if the form isn't informing... Hey, your message has been sent!

    I'm all about that bass.

      I don't know, can you do that with Contact 7? I know the contact form plugin that I'm using now does give a confirmation message.

    I have a copy and paste list of plugins that I have added automatically through "Plugin Central" every time I set up and new WP site, plus one extra I install manually. Here's my process:

    1. In the "Add New" section of plugin admin, search for and install "Plugin Central". Activate it.

    2. Paste this list into Plugin Central - it will automatically download and install each plugin:
    HTML Code:
    http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/secure-wordpress.zip
    http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/askapache-password-protect.4.6.5.3.zip
    http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/vipers-video-quicktags.zip
    http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/google-sitemap-generator.3.2.4.zip
    http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/all-in-one-seo-pack.zip
    http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/stats.1.7.3.zip
    http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/si-contact-form.zip
    http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/robots-meta.3.3.1.zi
    3. Manually install UP Smart Update Pinger (regulates pinging and prevents you being marked a ping spammer) - download this after opt in here: Ultimate Plugins Smart Update Pinger [Ultimate Plugins]


    I then activate all the plugins at once and go through their settings.

    There are all the essentials I need in there for SEO, security, video embedding, contact forms and stats tracking. With those in place I'm good to go.

    All that takes about 2 minutes.

    It depends on our blogs' niches, one blog uses a plugin that other blog does not need.

    These best blog plugins are essential plugins that can enpower wordpress blog SEO, interlinking, social media, comments, spams, and security, including advertisement in wordpress.
