77 Quality Score

Active Installs

16/30

With only 3,000 active installs and a single-digit rating count, this is a niche utility that has not seen broad adoption despite its long listing history.

Update Freshness

25/25

The plugin was updated on 2026-06-21 and explicitly tested against WordPress 7.0, which is the strongest signal in the dataset and earns a perfect maintenance score.

User Rating

14/15

The 92 out of 100 rating from 5 reviewers is positive, but the sample size is too small to treat as a reliable indicator of widespread satisfaction.

Support Health

8/15

Only one support thread exists and it is resolved, which is good, but the volume is far too low to confidently judge responsiveness under real load.

WP Compatibility

15/15

It requires PHP 7.4 and WordPress 6.2 or higher, and it is tested up to WordPress 7.0, giving it a clean compatibility profile on modern stacks.

What It Does

Add Password Field for Contact Form 7 registers a new password input type that can be dropped into any CF7 form via a form-tag generator. When the form is submitted, the entered password is sent through CF7's standard mail pipeline like any other field, with no hashing or user account creation bundled in. In practice, it is a UI addition for form builders, not a full registration or authentication solution.

Who It's For

This plugin fits site owners who already rely on Contact Form 7 and need a quick, native-looking password field for simple intake forms such as consultation bookings, event registrations, or membership enquiries where a password is collected by hand. It is best suited to small sites where passwords are passed to a human operator or external system rather than used to log users in directly.

Who Should Skip It

Anyone who actually wants automatic WordPress user account creation, hashed credential storage, or email-based login should skip this plugin, since it does not create accounts or integrate with wp_users. Teams needing strong form features like conditional logic, multi-page layouts, or payment collection should also look at a fuller form builder instead.

The Bottom Line

Add Password Field for Contact Form 7 is a small, well-maintained utility that does exactly one thing: it adds a password field to CF7 forms. With an overall quality score of 76.87 out of 100, it is functional but limited, and most users needing real account creation or richer forms will be better served by WPForms, Forminator, or Fluent Forms.

Pick Akismet if your main problem is spam submissions, not adding password fields.

WPForms Lite 97/100

Pick WPForms when you need a full drag-and-drop form builder with user registration, payment, and conditional logic add-ons.

Forminator Forms 94/100

Pick Forminator if you want built-in user registration and payment forms without paying for a premium add-on suite.

Fluent Forms 88/100

Pick Fluent Forms when you need advanced features like conversational forms, quizzes, and user registration on a generous free tier.

Contact Form 7 88/100

Stay with Contact Form 7 alone if your forms are basic and you do not actually need a password field, since the core plugin has 10 million installs and far more third-party support.
