How to show custom error messages in WordPress contact forms? In this WordPress tutorial we will have a look at custom validation error messages in WordPress. Contact Form 7 is the most used WordPress plugin to send emails but it does not offer WordPress forms error messages customization out of the box. We have contact form built with Contact Form 7 plugin and if I do not fill in details and hit submit button, It shows generic error messages. Each error message shows same statement: 'This field is required.' We can customize these WordPress form error messages to more meaningful error messages for a better WordPress user experience.
Go to plugins and search 'Custom Error Messages'. We are looking for 'CF7 Custom Error Messages ' plugin. Install it and then edit required contact form. This plugin detects required fields in WordPress and offers a way to add WordPress forms custom error messages.
Custom form validation error messages like:
Please provide your name
Please provide your email address
Please provide a valid email address
Please provide email subject
Please type your message
Instead of just: 'This field is required'!!!
And it also asks to fill in correct email address if provided email is not a valid email address. So the validation messages for WordPress contact forms are proper. Now we are looking at proper contact form 7 error messages that can help user in a better way to understand what went wrong if email was not sent. Use this plugin, it's a must have for a good WordPress website that uses Contact Form 7 plugin.
