[Plugin: Contact Form 7] Form POST request not being answered when submitting a form

    This plug-in was working fine in one of the previous versions, but after one of the updates, forms are no longer being submitted.

    The loading arrows continue to spin indefinitely and when I checked the request with FireBug, the POST request is never answered for some reason.
    I disabled all other plug-ins, switched to the default “Twenty-Ten” theme and still the exact same thing.

    The POST parameters *seem* correct, so I’m at a loss as to why it’s not working.
    Here’s what parameters are being submitted:

    _wpcf7    3
_wpcf7_captcha_challenge_captcha-684    1084281957
_wpcf7_is_ajax_call    1
_wpcf7_unit_tag    wpcf7-f3-p49-o1
_wpcf7_version    2.4.1
captcha-684    9EQ7
your-email    [email protected]
your-message    123456
your-name    David

  • Can I see the contact page? (URL?)
    What version of WordPress are you using?
    What is your web server? Apache? IIS?
    How is your .htaccess setting?
    What plugins are you using with Contact Form 7?

    The URL I have the form coming to my email address is https://thatchurch.com/highlander/, but the other forms aren’t working either.

    I’m using WordPress 3.0.1

    Apache for the web server on a Linux OS.

    The .htaccess settings are:

    # BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

    As far as plug-ins go, I disabled everything except Contact Form 7, then enabled just Really Simple CAPTCHA in addition, but still no luck. The plug-ins I have installed are these:

    • Blip.TV Manager – A plug-in I wrote and it wouldn’t interfere with it.
    • Lightbox Plus
    • Meta SEO Pack
    • NextGEN Gallery
    • Really Simple CAPTCHA
    • TinyMCE Advanced

    Nothing new has been added except updates I’ve made to my Blip.TV Manager plug-in and I’ve tried completely removing it and it doesn’t effect (and shouldn’t anyways) the Contact Form 7.

    The thing that gets me is there’s NO response whatsoever to the POST request, yet AJAX works everywhere else just fine.

    Hey,
    Nevermind on this issue. It appears there was some sort of problem with my email hosting and the emails were backed up and not being sent. I would recommend adding some sort of functionality to give a response if the sending email function(s) fail or take too long.

    That’s good to hear.

    I agree. When the mail function fails you’ll see the error message, but there is nothing when it takes too long. Please tell me if you have good idea to implement this.
