Form error / inline link not appearing

  • Hi There,

    Hoping someone can shed some light on the subject.
    I’ve setup EBD to deliver both as an inline link and via email. The email option is working successfully. A submission is recorded in EBD’s download log as well.

    However, when submitting the form on the page I’m getting the error message that it wasn’t successful and the link is not appearing (either _self or _blank). I’m also not getting a notification message from the form that a download occurred (although I know this is likely the form’s problem, not EBD).

    Any suggestions on next steps for troubleshooting?

    Details:
    URL: https://www.cordelta.com/tools/pen-testing/
    Wordpress version 4.3.1
    EBD version 3.4
    Contact Form 7 version 4.3.1
    Download Monitor version 1.9.1
    Custom Sender for EBD version 0.1 (did not work before this was installed either)

  • When you press Submit on your form it never does a POST. It is getting stopped before that point. Most likely due to some javascript validation I’m guessing.

    That said, there is another issue that I’ve seen occasionally on other people’s pages — your page is issuing an AJAX GET back to itself along with some Contact Form 7 query string parameters. The requested URL looks like:

    https://www.cordelta.com/tools/pen-testing/?_wpcf7_is_ajax_call=1&_wpcf7=5553&_wpcf7_request_ver=1450242132132

    That may not be an issue, but it might. It looks like it’s probably related to some plugin that is related to Ajax or POSTing or debuggging or redirecting or something like that. Or it could a different symptom related to the same javascript or javascript validation issue with pressing the Submit button.

    If I were you I would make a simpler test page without any stuff on it (if possible) an also disable as many plugins as possible — particularly anything mucking around with forms, validation, ajax, submitting, redirecting, etc.
