Error on certain pages

can you tell me which version of PHP, WordPress, and the plugin you have installed

I’m sorry for not including those details.
PHP version: 7.0.33
Wordpress 5.4.2
Elementor 2.9.14
Contact form 7 5.2.1
CF7 Smart Grid Extension 3.3.5
Couple other plugins are there like WP table builder etc..
Not sure if you want those.. Please let me know.
Thanks!

so this error is not directly related to the plugin, and is likely due to some setup error.

The CF7 form is likely being corrupted as a result of memory issue possibly.

You could try to increase the memory limit on your installation and see if it fixes the issue.

Thank you.. Will check and get back. Thanks again.

I increased the WP_MEMORY_LIMIT to 256M.
I’m afraid no change in the result, the message still appears.
Thanks.

I have made some changes to the way the CF7 form object is retrieved in the newly released v3.3.6. Can you update and let me know if it fixes your issue?

Sure.. will do, thanks.

But I already have installed 3.3.6.
Just install again over ?
Please let me know.. thanks.

But I already have installed 3.3.6.

are you still getting the error?

Yes..

Strangely this error only happens on some pages.

so one way this can happen is if you use outdated cf7 form shortcodes on your pages.

An oudated shortcode can happen when you change the cky form unique key but you are still using the previous key.

The pages where you are getting the error I suggest that you copy the shortcode as it appears in the cf7 admin table and paste it again in the page.

I’m sorry for not making myself clear.. those pages doesn’t have the plugin used.
But the error message contains the plugin name.
So it may not be a plugin related issue?
I will copy the updated shortcode and let you know.
Thank you..

those pages doesn’t have the plugin used.

well the plugin page would only be called if a cf7 shortcode is being displayed on the page (either in the main content, as a widget in the sidebar or footer).

if You look at your error,

the entire stack trace is referring to the ‘contact-form-7’ shortcode, right from the WP core files themselves….so yes, defeinitely a cf7 form shortcode is being called and I reckon it is outdated. Hence the error.

Thank you for your time and patience.
I will remove the contact-form-7 plugin and reinstall along with CF7 Smart Grid Extension and check. Will keep you posted.
Thanks again..

sure. I will try in the next major release (v4.0 currenlty under development) to provide a more robust way to handle outdated shortcodes with a clean warning mechanism.
