[Plugin: Contact Form 7] Contact form code showing instead of form

Is the shortcode on its own line in the visual editor?

i.e.

Please fill in the following stuff 

[contact-form-7 id="74" title="Contact form 1"]

Hi

Yes it is.

Have you tried:

• reinstalling the plug-in
• creating another form and placing that one instead
• turning off all other plug-ins to see if there is a conflict

Hello,

I hate to steal colinweir’s thread but I’m also having the same issue:

https://www.deadlydecoys.com/contact-us

I’m using WP3.2.1 – I tried reinstalling, I created another form and I’ve deactivated all plugins…no go. I’m puzzled as I’ve used CF7 on the same theme, same WP version on other sites and I haven’t had issues.

Any ideas?

Horizon70s – I don’t see any of the Contact Form 7 code in your source code that would lead me to believe the plug-in is actually active.

Example code I see on one of my sites running this plug-in:

<link rel='stylesheet' id='contact-form-7-css'  href='https://www.yourdomain.com/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/styles.css?ver=3.0' type='text/css' media='all' />

<script type='text/javascript' src='https://www.yourdomain.com/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/jquery.form.js?ver=2.52'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='https://www.yourdomain.com/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/scripts.js?ver=3.0'></script>

Does your theme have the required WordPress plug-in hooks in your header.php file:

and footer.php file:

https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/wp_footer

The OP should check this as well as I noticed only some of the above code in their theme.

I am having this issue as well and I have the items you listed above. Please see page here: https://blueplateminds.com/submit-job-opening/

I have reinstalled, deactivated all other plugins and it still shows up this way. Any ideas?

Never mind…I fixed it – I tried reinstalling it again and it was fixed. Not sure why it didn’t work when I reinstalled before!
