Keep in mind if you are adding this JS to your template file that you’ll need to do this:

jQuery(function($) {
    Your jQuery here...
}) 

The docs say that there’s no need to specifically target your form. So I was able to get this to work (thanks to Joseph G.)

jQuery(function($) {
document.addEventListener( 'wpcf7submit', function( event ) {
        $('.submit-success').fadeIn();
        setTimeout( function() {
            $('.submit-success').fadeOut();
        },5000);
    }, false );
})

Hope this helps someone!

Scroll down and you’ll see the grey block quote marks.

I can no longer have a user’s email in the “from” field now due to it not having the same domain as my own site, which is something that would never happen.

This is a bug. I had to make up a fake email address so it would pass validation and actually send the email. I am using Version 4.4.1.

I look forward to it being fixed.
