1 Configuration Error Found

What is your configuration in the MAIL tab?

I have the same issue …
and it seems to be recent (up until recently – the form worked fine … and I have not made changes to the form, configuration or my email addresses for 2 years!) …

perhaps this is a new bug due to a wordpress update or contact 7 plugin update?

as of today – contact 7 no longer sends me emails…and
as the OP states …
Contact Form 7 says 1 configuration error found.

with no other indication as to what is wrong.

Again – I will state – the contact form remains unchanged since I first set it up 2 years ago (nor have the email setup changed).

I took a screen shot of it but not sure how to share it here.

In your FORM tab are the fields required (*)? For example:

[text* your-name]
[email* your-email]
[text* your-subject]
[text* your-message]

@barnez

Here is what my form tab shows

<p>Your Name (required)
[text* your-name] </p>

<p>Your Email (required)
[email* your-email] </p>

<p>Subject
[text your-subject] </p>

<p>Your Message
[textarea your-message] </p>

<p>[submit “Send”]</p>

OK. One of the new requirements is for there to *always* be some text in the SUBJECT field so it cannot be left empty and spam-like. Therefore, either make your subject mail-tag required in the FORM:

[text* your-subject]

Or, add some permanent text to the SUBJECT field in the MAIL tab. For example:

SUBJECT: Re: [your-subject]

Now it should validate ….

@barnez

You’re a genius! Thank you.

@cjcornell2 . . . add “Re:” in front of [your subject] on the mail tab. #BOOM #PrombleSolved

@nashvilleamber

Happy to hear that did the trick ??

thanks @barnez

awesome! i add the “*” to the fild and it solved the problem!

[text* your-subject] is the perfect solution!

one question if i add the “*” to the textarea will it make it an required fild?

can i write this [textarea* your-message]?

thanks!

@vizcano

can i write this [textarea* your-message]?

Yes, you can make any field required.

Thanks a lot @barnez

Great support!
