Elementor Pro comes with a Form widget that allows you to create fully functional and responsive forms for your WordPress websites. The Form widget also sends an email on form submissions, but at times you might feel the need to save the form submissions into the database. However, unfortunately, Elementor Pro does not provide the feature to handle form submissions.
