We have disabled all antispam settings and this makes the form submit successfully. When we enable again, the form stops working. We have lots of sites with WP Cerber and Contact Form 7.

I have contact-form-7 in the REST API allowed settings.

I am interested in this topic. I have WP Cerber on about 10 websites, shared hosting CPanel, PHP 7.2. One of them started having PHP Warning: mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/1040): Too many connections. It is a site that has much more traffic than the others. It has WP Rocket caching installed, and not many plugins, so I was perplexed about the error until I thought of WP Cerber, which does lots of logging. I have just updated to 7.9.7, and will see if this error happens again.

Thankyou Gioni!

I have just started using Cerber. I have other sites on a different server that are working just fine with Cerber and InfiniteWP. This one is the only one producing the error. I loaded Cerber on this site today.

Thanks, Alcides, for posting your javascript snippet. Hope there’s a solution within the plugin soon!

I have recently been having this issue with one particular client, where nearly every submission of his contact form is “double-clicked” (customers on Windows???).

I’m thankful for the javascript solution in the other thread, but I agree that it would make sense for the button to be disabled while the form is submitting.

Read your release notes and it looks like it would be smartest to convert to use a WP_Query object for the future, so I’ll follow through with this anyway.

Wow, thanks a lot Mikko. Yes, it does solve the problem! There is now nothing to fix.

Thanks to Mikko and Matt Gibbs. I updated to the latest free Relevanssi version and had this exact problem. Couldn’t see any reference to it in the change log, and so rolled back to the previous version.

I’m also using relevanssi_do_query( $query );

Now I have a clue what to fix.

I’m glad to hear that! I will see if I have another site with the same to investigate with.

Thanks Jeremy for your helpful article.

Adding this line to my child theme functions.php let me activate Jetpack plugin without adding Jetpack features by default.

add_filter( ‘jetpack_get_default_modules’, ‘__return_empty_array’ );

In the article it suggested trying Development mode. I’m noting here for other BruteProtect fans that this won’t let you activate the Protect feature. You need a WordPress.com account for that.

And a comment about Jetpack bloat. My site is now loading:
– jetpack.css
– https://s0.wp.com/wp-content/js/devicepx-jetpack.js

Even though I am not using any Jetpack frontend features, ONLY Protect. The performance hit isn’t much, but it is annoying! If you have a suggestion on how to prevent those loading, I’d love to hear it.

Worked perfectly.

Thankyou! I will check it out.

Thankyou very much! My “Add Media” button wasn’t working, and through the browser console, I tracked it down to your SEO plugin. This solution worked for me too, I checked the box next to Media and Products.

Here is my update to the issue. By going to SEO-> Titles & Metas -> Post Types and check the Hide box next to the Yoast SEO Meta Box for Gallery and PixProof you can fix the issue for now until the new update from YOAST.
