# Version 0.2 of Contact Form 7 Controls

![Advanced controls for Contact Form 7](https://kaspars.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/cf7-controls.png?strip=all&quality=90&resize=800,650)

During the weekend I updated the [Contact Form 7 Extras plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-extras/) to make it compatible with the latest version of the [Contact Form 7 plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/) which removed one of the hooks that was used for adding the admin meta boxes. Removing filter and action hooks is a huge *no-no* [just like changing URIs](http://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI.html).

I also decided to rename the plugin to “**Contact Form 7 Controls**” to clarify the purpose and functionality of the plugin.
