    Hi there,

    I saw an issue already set to resolved about a similar issue, but that didn’t really provide an accurate answer to my problem.

    So I am using DTX to grab the previous URL from the referrer page for job applications, then enter at the top of the application form. It is pulling that name by attaching this bit of code in a template:

    <a href="/careers/application?context='.urlencode(get_the_title($post->ID)) .'">Apply</a>

    It is pulling the page title and printing it on the form just fine, but after updating to WP 4.4.1 the form will not submit with the contextual name on the form. It is throwing the “Your form cannot be submitted at this time. Please contact the system admin or try later.” message.

    BUT, I’m also using the Contact Form DB plugin, and all of the info is showing up there, but the form isn’t being “submitted” regardless of that information being stored. It isn’t submitting, redirecting to the thank you page, sending HR the application, or sending the “Thanks for applying” email to applicants.

    Here’s my markup for the form:

    <header class="job-app-header">
    	<h3>[dynamictext contact-form-context id:contact-form-context uneditable "CF7_GET key='context'" ]</h3>
    </header>
    <fieldset class="contact-info">
    	<div class="half left">
    		[text* FirstName placeholder "First Name"]
    	</div>
    	<div class="half right">
    		[text* LastName placeholder "Last Name"]
    	</div>
    	<div class="half left">
    		[email* EmailAddress placeholder "Email Address"]
    	</div>
    	<div class="half right">
    		[tel PhoneNumber placeholder "Phone Number"]
    	</div>
    </fieldset>
    <fieldset class="relocation">
    	<p><strong>Are you willing to relocate?</strong></p>
    	<div class="full-width">
    		[checkbox AreYouWillingToRelocate label_first exclusive "Yes" "No"]
    	</div>
    </fieldset>
    <fieldset class="salary">
    	<div class="half left">
    		[text* CurrentSalary placeholder "What is your current annual income?"]
    	</div>
    	<div class="half right">
    		[text* RequiredSalary placeholder "Requested Salary"]
    	</div>
    </fieldset>
    <fieldset class="portfolio-resume">
    	<div class="full-width">
    		[url Portfolio placeholder "Do you have an online portfolio or resumé?"]
    	</div>
    	<div class="resume">
    		<div class="half left">
    			<p><strong>Upload your resumé and we'll give it a look.</strong></p> [file* Resume limit:8mb filetypes:PDF|JPG|JPEG|PNG|doc|docx.]
    		</div>
    		<div class="half right">
    			<p><strong>Have a PDF of your portfolio or examples of your work? Upload them here.</strong></p> [file PortfolioExamples limit:8mb filetypes:PDF|JPG|JPEG|PNG|doc|docx.]
    		</div>
    	</div>
    	<div class="cover-letter">
    		<div class="full-width">
    			[textarea* CoverLetter placeholder "Paste in your cover letter here, or tell us a little bit about yourself and where you see yourself at LIFT."]
    		</div>
    	</div>
    </fieldset>
    <fieldset class="form-submission">
    	<div class="full-width">
    		[quiz ProveYoureAHuman "Please answer the following question for verification. What does 1 + 1 = ?|2"]
    	</div>
    	<div class="submit-button">
    		[submit "Apply"]
    	</div>
    </fieldset>

    Anyone have any ideas?

    I’ve tried the SMTP server thing too. The weird thing is, our main contact form is working fine.

    OK, I got it.

    Apparently before 4.4.1 you could have your CTF7 Mail From address not inside brackets and it would still submit. Now you HAVE TO have them in brackets.

    Example:

    Prior to 4.4.1 this would work:

    [EmailAddress]

    After 4.4.1 it has to be like this to submit the form:

    <[EmailAddress]>

    UGH. Happy I figured it out though. Hopefully this will help others as well.
