## Descrição

**MV Form Usage Finder for Contact Form 7** solves a common headache for anyone 
managing a site with many Contact Form 7 forms: knowing exactly _where_ a given 
form is actually embedded.

Instead of manually opening every page and post to check for a `[contact-form-7]`
shortcode, this plugin scans your content and reports every location a form is used,
complete with direct edit and view links.

#### Key Features

 * **Find by form or by ID** — pick a form from a dropdown of all your Contact Form
   7 forms, or type in a form ID manually.
 * **Page builder aware** — scans every postmeta value on a post, not just post_content,
   so it detects forms embedded via the classic editor, the block editor (including
   CF7’s own Gutenberg block), and any page builder — Elementor, Beaver Builder,
   SiteOrigin Page Builder, Bricks, Oxygen, Divi, WPBakery (including its base64-
   encoded Raw HTML element), and others — without needing a maintained list of 
   builder-specific fields.
 * **Works with hash-based shortcode IDs** — resolves and matches the SHA-1 hash
   identifiers Contact Form 7 5.8+ uses in shortcodes, as well as the classic numeric
   ID.
 * **Flexible content search** — choose exactly which content types to scan: Pages,
   Posts, Products, Testimonials, Jobs, Forms, Businesses, Events, Books, and Exhibitions.
 * **Clear results table** — see the post ID, title, publish status, content type,
   and quick Edit / View actions for every match.
 * **Result count at a glance** — instantly see how many locations a form was found
   in.
 * **Works with custom post types** — searches beyond core Pages and Posts to cover
   custom content registered by other plugins (WooCommerce Products, Testimonials,
   Jobs, Businesses, Events, Books, Exhibitions, and more).
 * **Fast, targeted scanning** — only searches the content types you select, keeping
   results relevant and searches quick.
 * **Simple, single-screen workflow** — no configuration required; open Contact  
   Form Finder and start searching.

#### Who is this for?

 * Site builders and freelancers auditing client sites with many CF7 forms.
 * Agencies maintaining large, multi-post-type WordPress sites.
 * Anyone who has ever asked “where is this form actually used?”

## Perguntas frequentes

### Does this plugin require Contact Form 7 to be installed?

Yes. This plugin is an add-on for Contact Form 7 and requires it to be installed
and active.

### Can I search custom post types?

Yes. Any registered post type that stores content in the standard WordPress content
field can be included in the **Search In** options, including custom post types 
added by other plugins.

### What happens if a form isn’t found anywhere?

The results panel will show a zero-result message, letting you know the selected
form isn’t currently embedded in any of the searched content types.

### Does this plugin modify my content?

No. This plugin is read-only — it scans and reports usage but never edits your pages,
posts, or forms.

### Will this slow down my site?

No. Scanning only runs when you actively use the Form Finder tool in the admin area;
it has no effect on your site’s front-end performance.
