The When New Form Submission in Elementor, Send Text Message in Nifty PM workflow on the FlowMattic canvas, with 2 steps across Elementor, Nifty PM
The workflow as it appears in the builder after import. Each step opens for editing.

What this workflow does

Form entries that arrive by email are easy to miss when your team plans and talks in Nifty PM. Forwarding them by hand adds a step nobody enjoys. This workflow posts each Elementor form submission into Nifty PM as a message.

Each run starts with the Elementor trigger, which picks up a submission from any form made with the Elementor Pro form widget. Every field in the form, such as name, email and message, is passed to FlowMattic for mapping.

The Nifty PM step uses Send Message to post a new message. You write the text and map in the form answers, so your team sees who wrote and what they asked. Run a test submission after import to check where the message lands in Nifty PM and how it reads. Task History records each run if a message doesn't appear.

Agency enquiry form

Prospects ask for a quote through an Elementor form. Each enquiry appears as a Nifty PM message so the project lead can pick it up and reply.

Client change requests

Clients use a change request form on your site, and each request is posted to Nifty PM where the delivery team discusses it.

Bug reports from a product site

An Elementor bug report form sends each report into Nifty PM, so developers see new reports without checking a separate inbox.

How this workflow runs

What happens at each step once the workflow is on, and what you need before you import it.

  1. Step 1Trigger
    Elementor New Form Submission

    Fires each time a visitor submits an Elementor Pro form on your site. The form's fields are passed on so you can map them into the message. Send one test entry so the fields appear.

  2. Step 2Action
    Nifty PM Send Message

    Posts a new message in Nifty PM from your connected account. Write the message text and map in the form answers, then run a test to confirm where the message appears.

What you need

  • FlowMatticCore
  • Elementor PluginPlugin
  • Nifty PM AccountAccount

After importing, map your own data. To keep the template universal, not every step is pre-filled. Open each step in the builder and connect your accounts and fields (channels, lists, sheets, recipients) before you switch the workflow on.

Make it yours

Changes worth making after you import it.

  • Add a Filter after the trigger that continues only for one form or one topic answer, so a busy newsletter or contact form doesn't fill Nifty PM with messages.
  • Put the visitor's email at the start of the message text, if the form collects one, so a teammate can reply to them without opening WordPress.
  • If a submission should become work rather than a note, swap the step for Nifty PM's Create Task action and map the form answers into the task.

Questions about this workflow

Do I need Elementor Pro for this Nifty PM workflow?

Yes. The form widget that this trigger listens to is part of Elementor Pro, so Elementor Pro must be active on the same WordPress site as FlowMattic.

Does every Elementor form on my site post to Nifty PM?

As imported, any submission the trigger picks up starts a run. Add a Filter on the form name or ID if you want messages from only one form.

Can a form entry create a Nifty PM task instead of a message?

Yes, with a change. Nifty PM's actions in FlowMattic include Create Task, so you can replace Send Message with it and map the same form fields.
