## Description

Use any of your Contact Form 7 Forms in your sidebars. You can even style it from
the widget options. This will also work with any other shortcodes that only work
in posts. Just insert the shortcode (ie [contact-form 1 “Contact form 1”]) in the‘
Contact Form 7 tag’ text field. Leave styling options blank in order to style from
your theme’s css.

note: rounded corners do not work in Internet Explorer… Surprise! Get a different
browser!
 another note: Use 6 digit hex colors for better results

Thankyou so much for this awesome widget! I was trying for weeks to get a contact
form working properly in the footer area of my site, tried various other plugins
and code but none could fix the spacing and padding issues. This plugin works flawlessly,
thankyou so much!

This plugin is really impressive. It is 7 years old, still version 1.0, with only
one review and 20.000+ downloads!?! And it is working perfectly. I don’t know what
to say, except good work.
