Hello
Here is a site ( http://carlosrsuazo.wix.com/qgis ) test the form, I can
provide the code so you can embedded in the website, and this one can
receive unlimited replies. I wrote to platform managers and they will be
glad to supporting us with their tool in the future when they start pricing
the tool, for now they only charge forms that use payment request fields,
so we have unlimited form replies.
Best regards
Carlos Rivas
