If you want to add a simple and easy to use contact form to your blog, easy-contact is the choice for you.
Thanks to easy-contact and shortcodes you just have to type “[easy-contact]” (without quotes) anywhere in your posts/pages to display the contact form.

Easy-contact is not very sofisticated and lacks some features other similar plugins have (multilanguage support for example) but it will
be the right choice if you don’t need any advanced features from you contact form.

Installing the easy-contact plugin is, as WordPress customary, very easy: just put the plugin files into the plugins directory of
you WordPress installation and activate the plugin from the admin panel.

An option page named “Contact” will be added under the Settings menu allowing you to set some basic preferences.

To display the form you will have to put the shortcode “[easy-contact]” (without quotes) inside the page/post where you want it to be displayed.

Remember that you may need some css work to make the displayed form suit your theme because it comes with no particular styles embedded.

Enjoy
