Features

The free Perdita theme covers design, SEO, forms, caching, backups, and security. Pro adds twelve modules on top for sites that need more.

Free, forever Included in the theme

  • ✓ Open Graph and Twitter cards

A structured field builder that covers the core of Contact Form 7, plus entry storage CF7 lacks.

  • ✓ Email delivery with {field} placeholders and reply-to
  • ✓ Honeypot and nonce spam protection
