The “featured image” helped!

Thanks a lot!

I read this, didn’t see the answer… could you please point to a specific part of that document? Thanks!

Hi Kevin,
Yesterday I asked people on some forum to test the form and received about 50+ positive responses. They used all different browsers and had no nounce related errors. After I rebooted my computer and cleaned cache, the problem disappeared.

So, the problem was on my end, though to prevent such situation the nounce check could be disabled for double opt-in without any harm to security.

And yes, I updated the plugin yesterday immediately after the update became available, but that did not help to the yesterday’s issue. And actually it couldnt help. It seems my computer at the form submit did not send the nounce received from the server. Instead it sent back some old nounce that stuck in its cache and the nounce check failed.

I understand the nonce protects forms from the cross server attack, though in case of double opt-in it is not really needed.

Regards,
Eugene

Issue resolved: by mistake I entered the placeholder value into the “Default Value” field.

Hi Kevin,
I read the explanation of the WP nonces here: https://www.elegantthemes.com/blog/tips-tricks/an-introduction-to-wordpress-nonces-with-examples

I do not see why we need it to submit data to MailChimp in a double opt-in configuration (I understand the need of nonces in a single opt-in). Is it possible to add a checkbox to disable nonces – on Easy Forms’ config screen, or even in its config file?

Regards,
Eugene

Hi Kevin,
If I open a new inprivate window in IE or new incognito window in Chrome, the form works.
The regular IE and Chrome still have the problem. I tried to clean their cache and also switched off the w3-total-cache plugin, the error is still there… very strange

Hi Kevin,
I do not think your subscription actually happened, I do not see you in the list on MailChimp.

Hi Kevin,
Just tried 2 different browsers (Chrome and IE 11). Chrome I signed in as the admin of that WordPress site, in IE I wasn’t signed into WP. Same error. Win 7 desktop. I will try from another computer.

@yikesitskevin, I sent the URL in a message to your Facebook page. I just do not know how to do it here privately and don’t want to show publicly the URL to a site that is still under development. Thanks!

Same problem here. New WordPress installation on a server, receive similar error:

“Error: Sorry, the nonce security check didn’t pass. Please reload the page and try again. You may want to try clearing your browser cache as a last attempt.”

I use w3-total-cache plugin. Tried to purge all caches, but the error is still on the form.
