I spent ages looking for a solution to add a redirect after submission and then found this plugin. Saves a lot of time and no need to add javascript or edit the functions file.

Very useful plugin! I would love to see an Autocomplete Option to turn Autocomplete OFF for ALL forms. By default fields have Autocomplete ON. Although it's possible to change it by field attribute, I'd found it easier to have a global settings to disable Autocomplete for all forms.

Following the removal of the on_sent_ok hook from CF7, I've tried several plugins to perform redirection following form submission, and this is the only one I've found that works reliably with all browsers. And it has other useful features. 5 stars.
