your-email is not being captured

    Hi there,
    I’ve recently updated Contact Form 7 to the latest version (as of today), from whatever was latest in May 2017.

    Since doing so, the [email your-email] field is not being captured.

    I have two instances of it embedded in two mutually exclusive conditional groups. Here is the relevant template coding:

    [group email-conditional]
      <div style="clear:left;padding-top:10px;">
        <label> Your Email *
        [email* your-email] </label>
      </div>
      [/group] 

      [group email-conditional-2]
      <div style="clear:left;padding-top:10px;">
        <label> Your Email (for ease of communication, please provide if you have one)
        [email your-email] </label>
      </div>
      [/group]

    Are there any obvious reasons why this is not working?

    I input the email address, but it comes up blank in the Mail sent out to site owner, and the Mail 2 does not send to the form submitter.

    Thanks,

    Jonathan

    What I’ve since figured out is this. It would appear CF7 can’t deal with my form template using the same field twice. I don’t recall that being an issue a year ago, but for sure seems to be the case now. So I’ve gone about constructing my form in a more convoluted way, which seems to now be working fine.

    Hi Jonathan,

    I’m not 100% sure what is going on, but it does appear that you are using another plugin for Conditional Fields given your [group email-conditional] tag. Perhaps with the latest update, this other plugin has been affected and has yet to respond with a fix. Maybe try messaging their forum as well to see if anyone has a better solution than convoluted form syntax.

    Good luck!
