Forms not beeing stored

  • Forms that are successfully submitted by the Contact Form 7 plugin are not being stored by the Contact Form to DB.

    When viewing the CFDB page in the admin it just says “No form submissions in the database”

    The forms are mailed successfully. I can’t find them anything in the WordPress database but than again I’m not sure were to look.

    The install is hosted on WPengine. At this moment I can’t test it localy as do to unrelated issues.

    I did notice the issue few weeks ago and few updated to both plugins have occurred since than but non fixed nor broke the plugin as far as I know.

    Everything is up to date, plugins and systems.

    If WPEngine uses WordPress multisite, then CFDB will not work. It doesn’t work with multisite.

    No multisite setup on the install in question. WPEngine creates dedicated containers for each install.

    OK.

    Stuff I should ask for due diligence:
    – Ensure the plugin is enabled
    – Check that in the CFDB Options page the setting for capturing Contact Form 7 forms is set to true. It should be true be default.

    Assuming the above is true, then I’m not sure what the issue is.

    If the plugin cannot create its wp_cf7dbplugin_submits table during its initial installation, then it will fail. Check if that table is there. (“wp_” in the table name might be different for you).

    In the CFDB Options page, there is an option to designate a file to write error output to. If you can indicate a file on your server and be able to access it, then you can see if the plugin is reporting an error.
