Security check: referal does not match this site.

I am getting this error when potential clients fill out the form here is the link https://collisionbooking.com/#/445/features

I am still seing this bug.

As it was mentioned it could be a permalink issue it may be related to my URL. My theme is for making fullscreen maps treating every post as a pin on the map, and I prepend to every URL the geocode for the current view like https://www.example.com/#lat=-6.0838597429878485&lng=-49.87905269787062&zoom=13&p=10 where &p=10 is the current post or page opened as a popup over the map.

Could this be why the plugin won’t work? Is there a way to disable this security on free version?

Same here using i am using the plugin called audiobar and link looks like this https://www.palacbugaj.pl/#/category/aktualnosci/ i think the porblem is the # anyone know the fix for this i am getting error when sending form.

Hi,
I have a intranet wordpress 3.5.2 blog and I got :
Security check: referal does not match this site. Every time a send a form.
What can I do to fix it ?
Thanks in advance

https://vfb.matthewmuro.com/hooks/vfb_skip_referrer_check/

i get this error too
with latest wordpress 3.6.1
VFB 2.7.9
url = https://lucyandjason.com/#!/rsvp-bookings/

i ntried adding the skip referrer check to my function.php no joy

Same problem here. Skip referral check added to functions.php but it doesn’t fix the problem.

Hello All-
I am also having this error “Security check: referal does not match this site.”

https://www.telligentmasonry.com/wordpress/employment-opps-visual-form-builder

I also added the filter code to the functions.php file and got more errors.

“add_filter( ‘vfb_skip_referrer_check’, ‘vfb_filter_skip_referrer_check’, 10, 2 );

function vfb_filter_skip_empty_fields( $setting, $form_id ){
return true;
}”

Hello.

OK, so I’ve been having the exact same issue – I like the plugin for ease to set up, how it looks, but it does – not – work. https://www.corrinahewat.com
None of the suggestions I’ve read here make any difference, and can’t seem to find any answers that actually FIX the problem anywhere on the support forum. Would love to know if anyone knows what the solution is before I uninstall it and go find a plugin that works?

This is the proper code:

add_filter( 'vfb_skip_referrer_check', 'vfb_filter_skip_referrer_check', 10, 2 );

function vfb_filter_skip_referrer_check( $setting, $form_id ){
    return true;
}

The one posted by another user has a misspelling in it.

I will no longer respond to this topic. If you have this problem again, PLEASE START A NEW THREAD!!!

To anyone that has come across this thread I found a bit of information. First this is caused by the referral url not matching what gets put in the hidden referral field in the form. What has been the main culprit for me is additional parameters in the url like
?post_id=23 or whatever.

Second the above posted solution will not work. Looking at the plugin code nowhere does that hook get implemented. My guess is that filer was probably in an old version and got taken out and not accounted for.

Unfortunately there’s no clean solution to fix this with out going in an altering the plugin code (which i wouldn’t recommend). The best solution I’ve found is javascript based where you manually change the referral field to match the url.

Wow, thanks for completely ignoring my plea to start a new thread.

Also, here’s the relevant code out of includes/email.php:

$skip_referrer_check = apply_filters( 'vfb_skip_referrer_check', false, $form_id );

// Test if referral URL has been set
if ( !$referrer )
	wp_die( __( 'Security check: referal URL does not appear to be set.' , 'visual-form-builder'), '', array( 'back_link' => true ) );

// Allow referrer check to be skipped
if ( !$skip_referrer_check ) :
	// Test if the referral URL matches what sent from WordPress
	if ( $wp_get_referer )
		wp_die( __( 'Security check: referal does not match this site.' , 'visual-form-builder'), '', array( 'back_link' => true ) );
endif;
