After activation of the plugin, you’ll find **Flamingo** on the WordPress admin screen menu. All messages through contact forms are listed there and are searchable. With Flamingo, you no longer need to worry about losing important messages due to mail server issues or misconfiguration in mail setup. For more detailed information, please refer to the [Contact Form 7 documentation page](https://contactform7.com/save-submitted-messages-with-flamingo/). #### Privacy Notices This plugin stores submission data collected through contact forms, which may include the submitters’ personal information, in the database on the server that hosts the website. ## Rakibaad 1. Upload the entire `flamingo` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress. ## Dibu-eegisyo ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/759fac34a454f7537fa04abf4503f426697f5a3ff98151b7ab2e0b5ee9217a83? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works well](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-well-3178/)󠁿 [dougy99](https://profiles.wordpress.org/dougy99/) 25 Juunyo, 2026 it’s simple but good when you don’t have an email system setup yet ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/819a6183ab003a4eb1452c7cc36a53b7b4b21440e64633a0d51fd26b65204468? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[It does its job](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-does-its-job-21/)󠁿 [WPRavix](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wpravix/) 26 Maajo, 2026 This plugin fulfills its purpose of capturing messages sent through the contact form. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/15fb84635c304663ee27a6654ad79fe11052aaa916919870cf4b4fc63f886db3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Doing it’s job well](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doing-its-job-well/)󠁿 [Quentin Le Duff (–Q–)](https://profiles.wordpress.org/quentinldd/) 23 Abriil, 2026 Doing it’s job well 🙂 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/00655133aac26f5bf75c73c0e19b965aea6a8758fe43d0899a529bb25c9a6d08? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works Really Well](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-really-well-283/)󠁿 [nolanrichardson](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nolanrichardson/) 2 Oktoobar, 2025 Its a great addition to contact form 7 and much needed if you don’t have your email server setup yet. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d5d85d79f79baba4f5b9a619c51000a67c90c4a228473a9b3d30773859ec200e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Only works with PHP sendmail, not external SMTP](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/only-works-with-php-sendmail-not-external-smtp/)󠁿 [Skylabb](https://profiles.wordpress.org/skylabb/) 5 Janaayo, 2025 5 replies This plugin only works with contact forms using PHP mail. It doesn’t seem to work with an external SMTP mail server. I tested it out and there were no messages collected in DB. Also there’s no option to add more email addresses under Contact Book tab which shows only the users already registered in your WP site. So this feature is useless. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a0b24aa6e6580160bf6190cdad98fc1049647f85d230e5585f88e19e5efe47f3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great! (But has a minor bug)](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-but-has-a-minor-bug/)󠁿 [allamehw](https://profiles.wordpress.org/allamehw/) 8 Nofeembar, 2024 This is a great tool, especially with its integration into the Contact Form 7 plugin. However, there’s a minor bug when exporting non-Latin characters, such as Persian. It seems the encoding is set to Western by default. Switching to UTF-8 encoding should resolve the issue. Thanks!
