upgraded to WP 4.7

  • The contact form seems to have lost its labels and formatting. It is now a random mess of text boxes. it is added to a layout using do_shortcode:
    <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[contact-form-7 id=”‘ . get_design_option(‘contact-form’) . ‘”]’); ?>

    Any ideas please?

    Not being the plugin author, I can’t say if this is a known issue, but I can assure you, that CF7 is working in at least my test-installation of WordPress 4.7.

    If you are experiencing severe problems on you production site, and you updated to WordPresss 4.7, one approach might be to restore a working WP 4.6 backup and then, on a separate test site, test each plugin individually until you identify the plugin (if any) causing the problem.

    AFAIK CF7 does not apply any formatting at all to the forms. All styling are done in a style sheet. Have you tried creating a simple form from scratch, without any inline styling?

    This is obviously a theme issue. It has nothing to do with 4.7 update.

    It needed all the fields reformatted. It used to have for example :
    [text* your-name]Your Name[/text*]

    and redoing all the fields it now is in this format:
    [text* your-name class:required “Your Name”]

    The names then came back. With a p tag they realigned.
