Contact Form 7 3.0

Contact Form 7 3.0 stable release is now available. The greatest change is that it becomes to treat a contact form as Custom Post Type. Why is this great? Because you can customize it more flexibly. Also, the contact form data becomes more portable. Now you can export/import contact forms with WordPress Importer.


As Contact Form 7 3.0 also has many other great enhancements and fixes, I highly recommend you to upgrade soon.
