Design your cf7 emails without any code for free with Elemailer Lite
Contact Form 7 is one of the most widely used plugins out there in WordPress. It’s also 100% free. It does a pretty good job at creating a contact form on your site and sending an email on it’s own.
But it doesn’t have a very good email layout unless you edit the email content in the form’s mail & mail2 boxes with custom HTML.
