Explain to users why they should use Fieldsets in their forms and how to do that using CF7 Skins.

The grouping and labelling of thematically related controls within a form is an important aspect of providing semantic information so users can understand and complete a form successfully.
The HTML 4.1 specification introduced a method for grouping and labeling related form controls.
The fieldset element allows authors to group thematically related controls and labels. Grouping controls makes it easier for users to understand their purpose while simultaneously facilitating tabbing navigation for visual user agents and speech navigation for speech-oriented user agents. The proper use of this element makes documents more accessible.
The legend element allows authors to assign a caption to a fieldset. The legend improves accessibility when the fieldset is rendered non-visually.

My experience is that the submission storage plugins are very robust and rarely fail to save a CF7 form submit.
They are not however always a good indication of CF7 sending emails. The green “Your message was sent successfully” message is a much clearer indicator that CF7 is sending the email.
The submission storage plugins appear to save a CF7 form submit even if the email is not sent due to a Javascript Conflict or unallowed From: email address.
This is partly why I think they are so often used by experienced WP users – they provide a robust record of all form submissions even when things go a little wrong.

Contact Form 7 is an excellent WordPress plugin, and the CF7 DTX Plugin makes it even more awesome by adding dynamic content capabilities. While default values in Contact Form 7 are static. CF7 DTX lets you create pre-populated fields based on other values. Some examples might include:
Auto-filling a URL
Auto-filling a Post ID, title, or slug
Pre-populating a Product Number
Referencing other content on the site
Populating with post info
Populating with user info
Populating with custom fields
Any value you can write a shortcode for
There are many more case-specific examples. I searched for a solution, and there are some decent hacks out there. Many of them are explored in this forum topic: Contact Form 7 Input Fields Values as PHP Get-Viarables. However, they all involved hacking the current Contact Form 7 code, which means next time the plugin is updated their edits will be overwritten. That’s bad.
This Dynamic Text Extension plugin provides a more elegant solution that leaves the Contact Form 7 Plugin intact.
