  • it can be caused because Opera VPN is a headerless browser (correct me if i’m wrong) and it falls into internal cf7 antispam checks

    Add Below filter in function file of active theme to work proper contact form in all browsers.

    add_filter ( ‘wpcf7_spam’ , ‘__return_false’ );

    in this way you are disabling many antispam plugins! because the wpcf7 spam will return always false, so all the mails will pass. use at your own risk!

    in addition, this isn’t a issue because there isn’t a reason to send a mail from a website using an headerless browser. why you need to mask your identity? Looking at it from the point of view of the website I would think you are a bot, right?

    I am having the same issue with Opera only (not other browsers).
    Headerless browser or not I would say that it doesn’t matter.
    Contact Form 7 should be working with all browsers the same way.

    Is it possible to remove the headerless browser check in the internal CF7 anti-spam checks and keep other anti-spam checks so that it would solve this issue properly?

    By the way I am not using the Opera VPN nor the private mode, so just standard Opera browser.

    Also I tried to add the filter you recommended but it still doesn’t work.
    I even tried this filter:
    add_filter( ‘wpcf7_spam’, function( $spam ) {
    return false;
    }, 10, 1 );

    And this still didn’t work.
    So it seems that something else is blocking the form under Opera, not the spam detection.
    I really need to make CF7 work on all browser, else it is not safe enough to be used for me.

    Is it possible to investigate that issue please?
