It’s too bad they don’t supply this feature. I am so tired of wasting time downloading plugins, getting api keys, and finding many plugins do not work.

Too many plugins to monitor and fix when many do not work or stay updated. Best to add this feature to your own plugin.

Clarification – the sign-up form needs the captcha.

It could be your theme interfering with this – or even another plugin. Perhaps the server configuration or you modified the code somewhere? Unfortunately, some installations interfere with other installations. I found this happening with many plugins, especially if they are outdated.

Do you not see the “Forms” tab? Mailpoet > Settings and at the top should be a “Forms” tab.

If so, click “Forms” then click the demo one there to edit it (just like editing posts and pages) – or you can add a new one.

At the top, you can “Edit Name“. Search the page for “edit name” to find it. This means to edit the name of the form.

To the right or below the main content will be widgets that you can drag and drop onto the form to add the “first name”, “last name”. You can even “add a new field”. To add a new fields, you need to know something about html forms.

HTH! If not, try uninstalling and reinstalling the form or go through troubleshooting to find out if another plugin or your theme is interferring. (E.g., diable plugins and test. Enable another generic theme and test.)

Thanks for your response.

I uninistalled the plugin and the reinstalled Contact Form 7.
Still it doesn’t work – same symptoms.

BTW – What do you mean, “irregular form”? Do you mean a “modified version”?

To recap, their troubleshooting pages says,

1. Hosting Issues – This is not the issue because the site sends email when new users are registered.
2. Ensure proper return address is used – Ditto above.
3. Your email may be treated as spam – Nope. See #1.
4. Plugin or Theme Conflicts – contact form 7 came with theme. With all plugins that are not required by the theme disabled, the problem persists.
5. Javascript Conflicts – – contact form 7 came with theme. With all plugins that are not required by the theme disabled, the problem persists.

It seems that this is not resolved because I see many many folks with the same problem. It’s too bad this is so widespread with no resolution except to blame other plugins, programs, servers – anything but this plugin itself.

We have the same problem.

First, when trying to activate it we got “The plugin does not have a valid header.”.

The first linefeed in wp-mailinglist.php was removed and the plugin is listed in the Installed Plugins.

Clicking the plugin to activate, the text in the list for this plugin stays as not activated. At the top of the page it says “Plugin activated”.

Hum – Perhaps another formatting error?

Oh – and I manually upgraded and that didn’t work.
How can I do a fresh install and keep the current posts and users?

Switching theme doesn’t help.
Resetting plugins doesn’t fix it.
Uploaded everything except what you said doesn’t work.

The debugger gave a MYSQL error.
