Great Plugin – Slow Submit

  • I’ve been using Contact Form 7 on a number of websites for years; however, over the past few years, the Submissions have been getting slower and slower. Sometimes 20-25 seconds go by without anything happening after clicking Submit.

    My concern, is I am hearing from people saying they sent me a message via the form but I have not heard from them. So basically, people are closing the page/window before the message finally sends 20-25 seconds after clicking on Submit.

    If it is going to remain slow – there needs to be a message that says “Do not close the window – message processing” or something like that. I noticed Ninja Forms has that processing feature but I don’t like their addon pricing structure.

    Other than the slow submit – I prefer Contact Form 7 and everything you can extend it with.

    Hello shanekeller,

    Did you get any solutions for this?

    No solutions have been provided for this yet. But it has been very frustrating to have to switch our CF7 to a new system on a number of our websites. I still prefer Cf7 but that slow submit is a deal breaker if it results in lost contacts and customers.

    Thank you for the update shanekeller..

    Even I am facing a lot of problem with this. Which contact form are you using now.

    We switched to Ninja Forms, which as free and paid versions. It is slightly faster and you can change the messages to processing or please wait or whatever you want. The paid addon features such as “layout and styles” are also very useful. I also like the integration with our CRM.
