Just found out that none of my contact forms are working .

Same, tried to disable all plugins and also changed theme to blank, but still doesnt work, standard error.

I haven’t tried anything yet. By the way, I’m trying to create another website with the same theme ad host etc. and when tested contact 7 form, yesterday, it worked.

Will give it a go with disabling the plugins one by one.

Just solved, not by though my host support customer service.

Apparently they fixed by doing this:
“`Hello,

We changed the following line in the ……….PHPMailer.php file from:

<;quote>; public $AuthType = ”;<;/quote>;

to

<;quote>; public $AuthType = ‘PLAIN’;<;/quote>;`

@nikolay76 where and how was this code line changed? Thanks.

Hi, unoloop555, I’m another CF7 user.

Look for this comment in your PHPMailer.php file:

/**
     * SMTP authentication type. Options are CRAM-MD5, LOGIN, PLAIN, XOAUTH2.
     * If not specified, the first one from that list that the server supports will be selected.
     *
     * @var string
*/

The line:

public $AuthType = '';

should be right below that.

Sorry for the delay, my pc is all torn apart and i forgot the password to log here.

Despite the changes in the code the issue still persisted and again I contacted my host customer service. They said the problem was generated by the reCaptcha so i disable it and it seems like my forms are working now – although i haven’t tested today.

Hope this help.

@nikolay76 no worries, thank you. I couldnt change the main install code because of wordpress.com hosting but I contacted them again and interestingly they said it could be caused due to lack of recaptcha. They told something about spam and blocking of my email, not sure why. They told me to install recaptcha and some other steps to unlock, it will take some time to take effect they said.
