Thank you

Hi,

The site is at https://festivalgritalo.com/ Do you need login details? Is there a way I can send them to you privately?

Thank you

Hi again,

Sorry for insisting about this, I know that taking care of support requests from us users is not exactly lucrative to you, but it is driving my nuts that the plugin doesn’t capture submissions silently, I mean, apparently not showing any errors. I discovered your plugin yesterday, never knew about its existence before and I think it is a great plugin! I would use it repeatedly and donate to the plugin if I can get it to work!

So… I moved the error log file to the same folder as the plugin (I had placed it outside public_html, shouldn’t matter, but just in case… ), granted full permissions to the file (777) to be sure that it can be written to, updated php.ini file with the new path, submitted the form… Still no errors.

I went to phpMyAdmin and manually inserted an entry just to check if the plugin would retrieve that. It did, so the plugin does pickup data from the database.

You said something about adding the log_form_submissions hook to see if CFDB is getting anything form CF7. How can I do this?

Thank you!

I have used the Add Actions and Filters plugin, added the code, created the php.ini file inside CFDB folder, set the path, submitted the form, and there is no error.

How can I add the log_form_submissions hook to see if CFBD is getting anything from CF7?

Thank you

Have updated and as expected, hasn’t fixed my issue. I understand there is no information on why the plugin is not working.

I can set up the error log file. I have read the post you linked to, I can create the php.ini file within the plugins folder, however I don’t understand where to paste this piece of code:

function &log_form_submissions(&$formData)
{
    error_log('Form Submission: ' .
            print_r($formData, true));
    return $formData;
}
add_filter('cfdb_form_data', 'log_form_submissions');

Thank you

I can see you have just released a new version of the plugin. Should I go ahead and update it to see if it fix my issue?

Thank you

Yeah, that would be correct. The plugin is not capturing submissions.

Both options checked!

HI,

I didn’t explain myself correctly on that one. The name of the table is not “_cf7dbplugin_submits” it has a proper prefix. The prefix is other than “wp”. That is made on purpose by me as a security measure. I’ve always done it that way and never had a problem with using a db prefix different than WordPress’ default.

So, having cleared that up… Any ideas? I could give you login details if you wanted to take a look…

Thank you

Great! It worked like a charm!

In the page that provides instructions to do this (https://contactform7.com/selectable-recipient-with-pipes/) it seems to have spaces around pipes. I suggest removing or including in text a warning saying: “You need to remove spaces around pipes. “

Thank you so much for your time! I really think this is the best contact form plugin I’ve found so far for WordPress!

Have a great day!

I must add, when I remove the dropdown menu and use a “fixed” e-mail address in the “To” field, the contact form works perfectly.

Thank you!

Takayuki,

Thank you for replying!

The error message I get is in Spanish because my WP is in that language. In the CF7 panel, would be error message #2. The translation could be: “Your message failed to be sent. Please try again later or contact the administrator by other means”.

This is how I set the dropdown:
[select destinatario “Contacto General | [email protected]”
“Experimendo San Luis | [email protected]”
“Contrataciones | [email protected]”]

Of course I’ve used real e-mail addresses.

And the “To” field is set to: [destinatario]

Thank you!

Just a quick update. I’ve check the source code of the page that holds the contact form. I understand that the “value” parameter for each dropdown option element, should be set to the e-mails address I’ve set in the form, using the pipe technique. However, the “value” parameter shows the words I placed before the pipe.

I’ve also check that the USE_PIPE constante is set to true in my Contact Form 7 installation.

Thank you!
