Nextgen Gallery and Contact-Form-7

@gefallener – I just tested this with the latest releases of all of these plugins (and a few other I also run) and I am not having any issues with the success message displaying … theme stylings aside, this is a snippet of what I am seeing: https://take.ms/9YooD

Please let us know if the CF7 author(s) have any ideas on this.

Thanks!

+photocrati I’m having the exact same issue.

WordPress 4.0
NextGEN Gallery by Photocrati 2.0.66.27
Contact Form 7 3.9.3

I’ve also tried disabling all plugins except for those two, so it’s definitely between them. I push the submit button and the loading GIF spins round and round while the email is already sent.

Here’s a snippet of my chrome developer tools: https://screencast.com/t/1AV7hiNcXu The response is empty.

This is what I whould see: https://screencast.com/t/ilqmhKignc The response is 128KB with a JSON string to be parsed.

I’ll cross-post this on +Gefallener ‘s other post, but I’m thinking it’s probably more a problem with NextGen Gallery intercepting the AJAX requests of Contact Form 7, perhaps server side? I haven’t done enough research to really know anything for sure.

Oh, and I can send you a link and access to the back-end if it would help.

Can reproduce with:
NextGEN Gallery:

• 2.0.11
• 2.0.21
• 2.0.30
• 2.0.66
• 2.0.66.27

Can NOT reproduce with:
NextGen Gallery

• 1.9.9
• 2.0.0

Other notes:
NextGen Gallery
2.0.7 crashed my whole wordpress

So it’s somewhere between 2.0.0 and 2.0.11 that the issue was introduced.

@jstand – I would recommend starting your own topic and providing a link to your site as the screen snippets are not quite showing enough details … and it would be much easier seeing things first hand.

Thanks!

+Gefallener for the moment, to avoid having people send your form many times over without knowing it, you could put this code in your functions.php file. Contact Form 7 was kind enough to expect other plugins to conflict, so you can just remove the AJAX posting.

add_filter( ‘wpcf7_load_js’, ‘__return_false’ );

Once the issue is resolved, you can get rid of that line.

@jstand – Thanks for the tip on that!

Hello,

I am having a similar conflict that turns the backend in a blank screen.

WP 4.0 EN/US
Contact Form 7 4.0.1
Next Gen Gallery 2.0.66.29

Deactivating either one of those plugins retores the full functionality of the backend.

Any clue ?

@wkkhwz – I wonder if there may be a third element to your site that’s causing this to happen. Would you mind temporarily switch your theme to the WordPress default Twenty Twelve theme, and deactivate all other plugins so only NextGEN Gallery and Contact Form 7 are active. Does the issue persist?

@photocrati Was this issue ever resolved? I am having the same problem now. The form works perfectly except it doesnt display a success or failure message once it is submitted. It’s strange that 2 of my contact forms are having this problem but one is working fine.
