    Hi,

    I am using WordPress 4.0 in Spanish, Contact Form 7 4.0.1, theme Twenty Thirteen 1.3, running on a share hosting environment that uses WHM/cPanel 11.44.1 (build 21) on CLOUDLINUX 5.10 x86_64 standard, Apache 2.2.27, PHP 5.2.17 and MySQL 5.5.40-36.1-log, I have not modified any of the plugins I have currently installed, they are all “as is”. Haven’t even modified WordPress core files, just made some customizations to the CSS file.

    That being said… I have installed Contact Form 7 and forms are working, they get send via e-mail. I also installed Contact Form DB plugin, as I need one of my forms to be saved to database. Couldn’t get it to work. I have been working with Contact Form DB author to see what could be wrong. He provided me with instructions to set an error log for his plugin, but I get no errors whatsoever. I have tried several things and nothing worked. He finally told me that he thinks Contact Form DB is not being notified by “the hook”. He told me to verify spam filter settings. I do not have any spam filter plugins (no Akismet, not even a CAPTCHA) and I do get the e-mails, so that shouldn’t be the problem. So, being unable to get Contact Form DB to work, I went ahead and installed Flamingo. I am surprised to say that Flaming is not working either! I still get the messages submitted via e-mail, but Flamingo doesn’t show submitted messages! So I assume there is a problem at Contact Form 7 level, something is not working that prevents any form-to-database plug in to work. Any ideas? I can provide you with loggin details if necessary.

    Sorry for the long message, but I’m trying to be as accurate as I can.

    Thank you!

    I have removed those files.

    I have reinstalled CF7 several times, in fact, I have tried installing involved plugins (CF7, Flamingo, CFDB) in different orders, with same results.

    I have activated debug mode now and there are no errors related to form activity.

    The thing bugs me the most, is not that it is not working, but that it is not working without leaving any clue of why it is not working…
