Cookie Size and Local Storage?

    Hi,

    I’m using this plugin and it looks like my form is a little bit too long. I get the following error:

    cookie length should be less than or equal to 4096 characters

    It’s not really possible to make the form shorter (maybe I can trim some variables, but that’s it). What I’m asking now is, why is it not using the LocalStorage? I see in the code are local storage methods implemented. But why is the form still using limited cookies? Is there a way to use local storage for the form data? Or is there another way to avoid cookie size errors?

    At the time I started to implement LocalStorage, the main Contact Form 7 was going through some major changes. It started using the REST API, but didn’t implement all the fields yet so I put a hold on that. Since then I’ve gotten pretty busy and have decided to release a Pro version of the plugin with LocalStorage. I’m still pretty strapped for time, but hopefully will release something in the next month or so.

    Hi,

    Just wanted to thank you for bringing this up and getting me to start working on this again. If you update to version 3.0 you can upgrade to the Pro version which uses SessionStorage. This should relieve your form size problems.

    Thanks, I’ll try that
