Form Fails When Webhook Active

Hi!

I believe that CF7 to webhook might just not be waiting long enough for the response, and failing due to a lack of a response. Is it possible to increase the amount of time the form waits for a response?

It’s possible. We use wp_remote_post so you can change the default value for timeout with the ctz_post_request_args filter.

add_filter( 'ctz_post_request_args', 'example_ctz_post_request_args' );

function example_ctz_post_request_args( $args ) {
  $args['timeout'] = 300;
  return $args;
}

Or else is is possible to have the form ignore responses and errors and show a success as long as there was no error on the site it’s installed on?

Yes. It’s not recommendable, but you can use the ctz_trigger_webhook_error_message filter.

add_filter( 'ctz_trigger_webhook_error_message', '__return_empty_string' );

Another strange thing: If I’m inspecting the page with the Chrome developer console, the form submission works. If the the developer console is closed (as it normally would be), it fails.

Sounds a cache problem (as console in general invalidates cache) or another settings like networking emulation. Very confusing indeed.

Where would this line be added? Functions.php?

add_filter( 'ctz_trigger_webhook_error_message', '__return_empty_string' );

Is 300 in the first code 300 seconds or 300 milliseconds? If I wanted the timeout to be 10 seconds, would I make this 10000?

Yes.

Every snippet should be in functions.php for themes or you can create your own plugin. Please check the links for more details.

About the time: it’s in seconds (as you can read here).
