Neural Forms

Neural Forms is a WordPress form plugin with a built-in lead inbox. Build forms with drag and drop, manage submissions in an email-style inbox, and let AI analyze every entry and draft your replies.

Most form plugins stop at collecting submissions. Neural Forms starts there. Every submission lands in your lead inbox with a status, a star, and (optionally) an AI-generated summary, category, priority score, and a draft reply ready to send.

External Services

This plugin connects to external third-party services. Most connections require explicit opt-in (entering an API key or selecting a service). One service (the template library) is contacted when you open the Templates screen to fetch the list of available form templates. The disclosures below describe each service, what data is sent, when, and why.

Neural Forms API

When you enable AI features and enter a Neural Forms API key in Settings, the plugin sends form submission content (the text your visitors enter) and form field metadata to the Neural Forms API at api.neuralforms.ai for AI analysis. This includes generating submission summaries, categories, priority scores, and draft replies. No data is sent unless you have enabled AI and provided an API key. The plugin never sends IP addresses, WordPress admin credentials, or WordPress core data to this service.

Neural Forms Template Library

When you open the Templates screen in Neural Forms, the plugin connects to the template library at templates.neuralforms.ai to fetch the catalog of available form templates. When you click to import a specific template, the plugin fetches that template’s content from the same host. The plugin sends the template ID and the builder type (block-editor) with each request. No form submission data, no visitor data, no WordPress admin information, and no API keys are sent. The catalog is cached locally for 6 hours to reduce remote requests. The host is fixed to templates.neuralforms.ai by default and validated against an allowlist before every request.

Cloudflare Turnstile

When you select Cloudflare Turnstile as your CAPTCHA provider and configure your site and secret keys, the plugin loads the Turnstile challenge script on pages with forms and verifies visitor responses server-side via the Cloudflare API. This service is used only when Turnstile is selected as the CAPTCHA provider in Settings.

Google reCAPTCHA v2

When you select Google reCAPTCHA v2 as your CAPTCHA provider and configure your site and secret keys, the plugin loads the reCAPTCHA challenge script on pages with forms and verifies visitor responses server-side via the Google API. This service is used only when reCAPTCHA v2 is selected as the CAPTCHA provider in Settings.

Source Code and Build Instructions

Neural Forms ships pre-built JavaScript and CSS files in modules/admin/build/ so the plugin works on a clean WordPress install without a Node toolchain. The compiled/generated files are:

• modules/admin/build/index.js: admin React SPA (Forms, Entries, Stats, Settings)
• modules/admin/build/index.css and modules/admin/build/index-rtl.css: admin styles
• modules/admin/build/block.js: Gutenberg block (neural-forms/form) editor script
• modules/admin/build/index.asset.php and modules/admin/build/block.asset.php: auto-generated WordPress dependency manifests

The complete, human-readable source for every generated file above is included inside this plugin package under:

• modules/admin/src/: React + CSS source (admin SPA entry, block entry, screens, components, styles)
• modules/admin/package.json: npm dependency list and build scripts
• modules/admin/package-lock.json: exact dependency versions (lockfile)

• modules/admin/webpack.config.js: webpack configuration (extends @wordpress/scripts)

  modules/admin/build/index.js is built from modules/admin/src/index.js and the modules it imports. modules/admin/build/block.js is built from modules/admin/src/block-index.js. Both are bundled by @wordpress/scripts (webpack + Babel) using the entry points declared in modules/admin/webpack.config.js. No obfuscation, packing, or encoding step is applied.

To rebuild the generated assets from source:

1. Install Node.js 18 or newer and npm.
2. Open a terminal in the plugin directory.

3. Run:

   cd modules/admin
   npm install
   npm run build

This regenerates the files in modules/admin/build/ from modules/admin/src/.
