• I have the weird issue that a lot of legitimate form submissions get marked as spam. Furthermore, in Flamingo the spam log is missing even though I use the latest version 2.3.

    According to this article, I should see a spam log entry with the reason why the message was marked as spam:
    https://contactform7.com/2019/05/31/why-is-this-message-marked-spam/

    However, I only see “Submission result: spam”

    I use the ReCaptcha v2 for Contact Form 7 plugin. Aksimet is disabled and there are no disallowed comment keys.

    As a workaround I’ve tried to add the following filter in functions.php but it doesn’t seem to help:

    // Reduce CF7 Spam threshold to 0.1 to avoid false positives
    add_filter( 'wpcf7_recaptcha_threshold',
    	function( $threshold ) {
    		$threshold = 0.1; // decrease threshold to 0.1
    		return $threshold;
    	},
    	10, 1
    );
    

    These are the plugin versions:
    Contact Form 7: 5.7.6
    Flamingo: 2.3
    ReCaptcha v2 for Contact Form 7: 1.4.3

    I am at a loss here as I can’t figure out what is marking certain messages as spam. Do you have any idea what else I could check?

    Thanks for any hints!
