Redirect to thank you page script not working

I might suggest mentioning this plugin in your documentation, it was exactly what I needed. For future folks with a similar issue… Install this plugin cf7 success-page-redirects and simply go to the cf7 section, open the redirect tab and select your page, wala!

Hey chrimbus,

It’s worth noting that the plugin you linked to hasn’t been updated in over 2 years. It hasn’t been tested with the latest version of WordPress or Contact Form 7 and might very well contain security vulnerabilities. It’s probably also using outdated hooks that CF7 has deprecated and will be removing completely by the end of the year.

Are you by chance using the plugin “Jquery Validation For Contact Form 7”? I had a similar problem (no errors, code just wouldn’t run) and it ended up being a conflict with this plugin. It’s quite possible that there’s a plugin conflict on your end as well.

Thanks for the heads up. Do you have any other recommendations for plugins or a solution to this?

Hey chrimbus,

What other plugins are you running?

I was able to get the DOM event to work after disabling a conflicting plugin (I was having the exact same issue you were having in your OP), so my guess is that there’s probably some plugin conflict on your end as well.

If you figure out which plugin is the culprit, you might try reaching out to that plugin developer to let them know about the issue?

I think CF7 – Success Page Redirect still hooks into an old method which is why it still works for now, but as soon as that method is removed completely from CF7, that plugin will likely break if it’s not updated to comply with the new structure ??

I am having the same issue.

I have implemented the script provided on the Contact Form 7 website and have tried placing it in both the header before </head> and in the footer and the redirect isn’t working.

I would rather not use a plugin.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

As the old way to redirect is going end of life, we could do with a simple way to redirect to an alternative page after successful submission of a CF7 form.

Anyone managed this?

We loved how simple this was to include:
on_sent_ok: “location = ‘/some-url/’;”

(Adding code to templates could be a big job for us, we are using DIVI theme)

Such a shame it is being deprecated ??

I am having the same problem.

I have tried putting the script that they recommend on the documentation page both on the page with my form, and in the form itself. Neither work.

Any advice?

Hi, i’ve the same problem… I don’t know WHERE add the script to redirect to a thankYouPage in my DIVI theme. Any suggestions?

I’ve added the script fallowing this topic: append-cf7-form-value-as-variable-to-redirect-url-on-submit in this plugin: Contact Form 7 Redirection
