Hi @wejustclick
I hope you’re well today!
it shouldn’t make any difference if form is auto-filled or not. The way it works is that the moment you hit “submit” button, plugin:
– saves the form data to the database (if this option is not disabled)
– and executes “wp_mail()” function (which is WordPress core function) to send defined e-mail notifications.
Then it’s WordPress core that handles the rest – sending e-mail – according to to the site configuration so either using default method or SMTP if it’s configured.
E-mail delays are usually related to other things. If default WordPress configuration is used, it would usually be either due to server configuration (status of current mail queue on server and/or mail sending configuration on server level) or to the sending/receiving server spam filters. For example, Gmail is known to delay e-mail handling on purpose.
That being said, let me ask:
1. rather than “auto-filled” vs “manually filled”, did you notice any specific pattern regarding e-mail address domain – like, for example, gmail (or similar big well-known domains) vs emails in other domains?
2. do you have SMTP configured on site to deliver e-mails or are you using standard WordPress setup only?
3. does it affect only notifications form Forminator or other notifications from site as well (such as, for example, lost password e-mails or similar)?
Kind regards,
Adam
