How to Submit an Idea or Issue

Last Updated on March 29, 2018 by Neil Murray

If you think of an improvement, idea, or encounter an issue with CF7 Skins, you should record it where others can see it.

If you want, you can message others on the CF7 Skins Team to discuss the idea/issue first.

To submit it to the team follow the steps below.

  1. Create a Bitbucket issue at:
    https://bitbucket.org/cf7skins/cf7skins-dev-cf7skins-visual/issues/
  2. Create a Dropbox Folder in Dropbox\Support\Development Issues.
    • Folder Name Format – Date bitbucketissue# bitbucket title
      • Example: 2018-04-01 – #200 – Duplicate a CF7 Tag
  3. Inside the Dropbox folder:
    • Add any screenshots
    • Add .txt version of your issue submission
      • Include the link to the Bitbucket issue and any other helpful links related to the idea/issue
