• I have a few websites that are using CF7 and they are all receiving duplicate emails for every email that comes through. They are all on different servers, so it’s not something related to that. Can you help me understand why this would be happening?

  • Hi,
    Are there any (same) plugins that are installed in each of these environments/configurations (without Contact Form 7)?
    If so, I would first check if these plugins are the source of the problem.

    The only other plugins related to contact forms in any way are “Contact Form CFDB7” and “Honeypot for Contact Form 7”. However, after looking at the plugins, wondering if “WPML Multilingual CMS” has anything to do with it since there are 2 languages on the site. However, that said, I do have an English and Spanish version of each contact form, so it shouldn’t be doing that.

    Still trying to figure this out. It’s happening so much that it’s starting to really annoy the client. And it shows in CFDB7 plugin that the emails are being sent twice, and sometimes more, like 4 times. Please help plugin admin.

    Where on the site do you have the form having the issue?

    Thread Starter dsb0328

    (@dsb0328)

    Mostly the form on the contact page, but also happens every so often on the home page contact form.

    See Setting up mail

    What email settings do you have in the Mail tab panel?

    To protect personal data, hiding email addresses in the settings or replacing them with dummy addresses is strongly advised. You can also include screenshots.

    The settings in the Mail tab are as follows:

    To[email protected] (client’s email address)
    From – [your-name] <[email protected]> (url of the site)
    Subject – Description of which contact form this is coming rom
    Additional Headers – Reply-To: <[your-email]>

    This is how I have it set up on all other sites I help manage, and they seem to work okay.

    This is what is in the Message body section with “Use HTML content type” checked on:

    <table cellpadding='10' cellspacing='0'>
        <tbody>
            <tr bgcolor='#e6e7e8'>
                <td><b>Name:</b></td>
                <td>[your-name]</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td><b>Email:</b></td>
                <td>[your-email]</td>
            </tr>
            <tr bgcolor='#e6e7e8'>
                <td><b>Phone:</b></td>
                <td>[phone-number]</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td><b>Message:</b></td>
                <td>[your-message]</td>
            </tr>
        </tbody>

    Try switching to the default theme, deactivating all plugins excluding Contact Form 7, Classic Editor, Classic Widgets and Site Kit by Google, and clearing all cache data.

    Why you are advised to deactivate plugins and switch to the default theme.
