Any clue how to resolve this?

BTW: great that you pick this up so quickly!

Please check the form on https://www.allianceexperts.com/test-new-form/

The Service value which is a text field is picked up perfectly, but the County2 value which is the dropdown has no effect.

Hi, I have more or less the same question, but then for Dropdown lists. I make these lists with the <select> option, so that I can also have sections in it.

This is my shortcode to get the form:

[contact-form-7 id="6c7e8f0" title="Costing & Proposal form" service="ProposalMS" country2="Spain"]

And this is the dropdown I have:

<select name="country2"> 
<option>-- please select your target country --</option>
  <optgroup label="Americas">
    <option>United States</option>
<option>Canada</option>
<option>Mexico</option>
<option>Brazil</option>
  </optgroup>
 <optgroup label="Europe">
    <option>United Kingdom</option>
    <option>Netherlands</option>
    <option>Germany</option>
    <option>Switzerland</option>
    <option>France</option>
    <option>Italy</option>
    <option>Spain</option>
</optgroup>
</select>

But the dropdown just shows the first option.

Thank you very much! This is really helpfull!

It has been resolved. Although I could not see the forms in the list, in my database I could still see the form ID’s. I pasted these form ID’s into the backend url of a visible form and got into the right form. When I saved the form again, it became visible in the list.

I don’t want to spend more time on such a backend problem but anyway wanted to share this workaround.

The two-letter country code for Denmark is dk. I think that should do the trick.

I discussed this with my web builder and the conclusion was that geolocation and CDN’s don’t work together, unless you exclude certain pages from the CDN.

This is always a problem with a CDN, since your website can be accessed from many servers in the world. And it is just which copy, with which content you will then see. So this may be the content for a few visitors before you.

I now see it works in the Pro-version only.

Will do

When I do this, no value is loaded any more.

Since this is a ‘live’ website, I changed it back.

See here mySQL output: https://www.allianceexperts.com/PDF/Screenshot.png

I use it in an automated proposal module, an example is: https://www.allianceexperts.com/sq/a/?oppid=a05f0bba-543c-6fb9-9c80-61ee82da2d3c

I put the symbols in the top right green block, with propprice1 as field name

I used a bit of custom code to display it as plain text in stead of a read-only field: in https://www.allianceexperts.com/wp-content/plugins/cf7-datasource/assets/script.js

Line 211 to 218

if(field[0].tagName == ‘TEXTAREA’ || field[0].tagName == ‘INPUT’) {
var element = document.getElementById(field[0].name);
if(element) {
element.innerHTML = value;
}
}

However, I have the same result if I just display this as a normal editable or readonly form field.

Yes, it conflicts, at least with services like Cloudflare. In most cases you will see the IP from a recent visitor, not yours. I had to disable Cloudflare to get things working properly again.
