The plugin will add a button to the Visual Editor – just highlight the text you want tweetable, and click the twitter icon in the editor's toolbar. You will be shown some customization options, and once you hit ‘OK' a shortcode will be wrapped around the selected content. You will need to view or preview the post to see the styles applied.

Save Contact Form 7 is totally free and has plenty of features. It keeps track of all the forms created through Contact Form 7, and also allows a beautiful dropdown to chose from. You can select any form and data gets populated itself. We have made sure that you see the data in a perfect tabular format. Unlike CFDB, the plugin itself is very smart and creates column name from your Contact Form 7 Field names. Hence, all the entries can be scanned at a single glance. Here are some of the coolest features we are providing with the plugin, which no other plugin provided in a single package.
