Of course, it will convert them! Thank you for clarifying that.

However, get_posted_data() doesn’t work from our end but $_POST does. We’re quite confused about this as we never did any changes to our codes before.

In the meantime, this resolved our issue by using $_POST.

Thanks!

We added the code on the functions.php file.

We opt out the original code but below is a sample that reproduces the same issue:

add_action( 'wpcf7_before_send_mail' , 'so_custom_before_send_mail', 999 );
function so_custom_before_send_mail( $form ) {
	$wpcf7 = WPCF7_ContactForm::get_current();
	$submission = WPCF7_Submission::get_instance();

	if ( $submission ) {
		$data = $submission->get_posted_data();
		$mail = $wpcf7->prop('mail');

		$mail['body'] .= "\n";
		$mail['body'] .= "\n" . print_r( $data, true );
		$mail['body'] .= "\n" . print_r( $_POST, true );

		$wpcf7->set_properties(array(
			'mail' => $mail
		));

		return $wpcf7;
	}
}

It’s just printing the form data but it’s still producing the same issue.

We don’t want to post it here but not sure if it’s possible to private a reply.

The website is https://tesol.org.au/

Even though period (.) is a safe character, apparently, three consecutive periods or ellipsis causes the URL to be blocked.

I have whitelisted the ellipsis on the BBQ GUI under the Request URIs field.

I entered the following characters below:
\.\.\.

Thanks, Jeff for all the help!

Hello Jeff,

Thank you for your reply.

I haven’t thought of that method. I will try and test the URL.

Also, I downloaded the BBQ GUI here:

Kind regards

Hello Jeff,

Thank you for your quick reply.

Sorry for the confusion.

The second link is just a screenshot I took of the characters separated to each other so I could clearly determine the unsafe characters. It is the same link as the first.

The link that is being blocked by BBQ is the first link.

Kind regards
