Overview
Formstack's WordPress form plugin is designed to empower users to embed a variety of forms, such as contact forms, lead generation forms, and payment forms, seamlessly onto their WordPress blogs and websites. Utilizing a user-friendly drag-and-drop interface, the plugin allows for the creation of customized online forms within seconds. It integrates with over 40 third-party apps, including prominent services like Salesforce, MailChimp, and PayPal. The plugin comprises two main components: the Formstack Widget and the Formstack Plugin. The widget effortlessly embeds forms into sidebars, automatically optimizing their CSS for a seamless look, while the plugin adds a button to the TinyMCE editor, enabling easy shortcode insertion and form rendering.

For a system that asks a lot of money for their service, you would think they would keep their features up to date. Nope. Can’t use this plugin, it just errors out. Can’t even use their embed javascript because you get a 403 server error.

It seem like you guys are trying to do too many things, but nothing works properly.
Signed up with Formstack, your Drupal extension doesn’t work, this WordPress extension doesn’t work either. It sends people to Formstack for confirmation instead of staying on the same page.
This plugin hasn’t been updated for 2 years.
.. wtf!
The only thing I’m stuck with are iFrames. These suck, but at least work.
Get a grip guys. You charge a lot of money for your service.

The previous plugin worked fine. This won’t authenticate and won’t allow me access to my forms.
When saving new API and client ID it gives me this:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home2/ogom/public_html/wp-content/plugins/formstack/plugin.php on line 288

Form cache can be refreshed immediately to pull in new forms rather than wait an unknown period for the new form to appear in your list. With 300+ forms the old plugin was quite slow, this one loads the forms from a cache, thus loads relatively immediately compared to the APIv1.
Overall huge improvement. I would have given it 4/5 stars because the forms aren’t ordered, but Michael who made the plugin is amazing and provided a workaround via the support thread. Quite easy fix with roughly 4 lines of code (not sure why they haven’t pushed the changes as 2.0.2).
Formstack is a great product overall, integrating with major players. If I had to give a cost to formstack in general (not the plugin) higher than average cost would be the biggest drawback for most small businesses.
Ignore the 1 star reviews, this plugin works just fine if you can handle 5 minutes of setup.

From Formstack’s own website… “compatible with up to WordPress 4.0”
It wants you to use Formstack’s API v1 which is now deprecated and discouraged BY FORMSTACK!
Do not install this plugin!
