Well no reply in nearly a week, which isn’t a great sign, but the version included with the “Mega Addons For Visual Composer” plugin seems to work, so…

I was already using an email address within the same domain as the website. Didn’t work.
I wasn’t expecting an instant fix – I appreciate problems may need time to solve and test – but the complete lack of acknowledgement from the dev is, frankly, inexcusable and I’ve already switched to a different product.

Thanks for taking the time to at least try making helpful suggestions, however.

santosk, you mentioned in another thread that you had disabled nonce checking and got the form to work. Would you mind telling me how you went about that?

santosk, may I ask how you disabled nonce checking?

This is my experience also. The orange border result is generated by CF7, not as the result of any error state returned by the mail system. I had no error messages related to this in either my web server or mail logs.
Also, the email address that I’m trying to send to is hosted on the same physical server, and under the same domain, as the website, so I can’t imagine there being anything for the hosting or service provider to restrict.

Is there any chance of getting actual support for this issue? Or indeed to any of the many others here who seem to be having the same problem?

All I have seen so far is one-line responses pointing to pages from the FAQ, which don’t actually answer the question, or instructions to “try the default theme”, which is hardly practical, and given how many people are posting with the same problem but different themes, it seems improbable that the theme is the culprit.

It seems any attempt to get the developer’s attention on other threads that they *have* answered just get removed. To be clear, they were threads about this issue – I’m not so rude as to just crash completely unrelated discussions.

I have a pretty good record of making donations to the authors of plugins that I use, either before I need support, after having received support, or even if I’ve never needed it but can see that the developer is active and responsive to users’ needs.

My impressions of Contact Form 7 so far aren’t good, but I’d love to be proved wrong.

In case the developer feels like taking a look, my site is here:

Ok, from reading some other responses it seems the validator runs automatically every time I save a form?

Therefore, if I see no error messages when saving a form, it means the validator found no errors. Is that correct?

Scratch that, my dev just told me it’s his javascript and not TablePress causing the issue…

Sorry to bother you, and thanks for the response ??

Ugh, my encoded ampersand got turned into an actual HTML ampersand… :-/

What I mean is that an “&” ampersand character in a text field is getting output to the page as the HTML encoded version. i.e. “&” becomes the text “& amp ; ” (no spaces, obviously).

What makes it more strange is that ampersands in column headers are being correctly preserved. It’s only ampersands in regular cells that are getting encoded.
