Hi Yordan,

Thank you for replying! I used CF7 many years ago and then, due to lack of other plugins, I had to learn all the quirks of the plugin. It was disappointing to see how nothing was change in so many years.

Yes, it is a very comprehensive plugin but I wish coders would give the author a hand and make it more friendly user.

I did manage to finally create the form I wanted. The CF7 instructions, well….they were not written for the simple user, they were written the way lawyers write contracts. Not too helpful I am afraid.

I do have an issue with CF7 not sending confirmation emails. I do have a second email setup and sometimes it sends confirmation and sometimes it does not. I am not sure if it is a server issue or a plugin issue. When sending email to an address belonging to a regular domain name (personal@photosbymotti for example) it seems to work almost always. However, when sending to a Gmail account, it does not always work, about 4 out of ten attempts. Strange.

Maybe you have a solution. Thank you in advance.

Cheers!!

Same here. Sender is not receiving email confirmation. This form plugin needs a serious upgrade, face lift and a much more user friendly settings. I know it’s free and I do appreciate the great effort however, why not use the thousands of coders out there to help you to revamp it?

Bottom line, if it does not send confirmation email it is quite useless.

Nisha,

I just installed Responsive Lightbox by dFactory and it’s working great. Cheers.

Hi Nisha,

Thank you Nisha, I will try another plugin. If you have any favourites please let me know.

Hi Nisha,

I use ‘WP Featherlight’. My theme does not utilize Lightbox too well -can not use it as a continuous gallery- maybe that’s why. Not sure.

Just realized it is the theme that causes the problems

Thank you from me too Takayuki

Found the problem why the confirmation note did not show up, I also had an incomplete <div> tag. Fixed.

I still do not know why one form gives me 2 configuration errors in the email even though the fields are exactly the same as the other two.

By the way, Locita, I just tried your two forms to see if they behave as mine do. Like my forms one of yours show the spinning arrow and a confirmation note but the other does not.

Did it help after fixing the HTML tags?

I am looking through my HTML now.

I have the same problem with one of my forms. I use the same HTML code for three forms and only one gives me trouble.

Does not want to show me conirmation when sending and do not tell me if there is an error (requires fields are not filled)

This form:
https://photosbymotti.com/clients/engagement-session-form/

And this form:
https://photosbymotti.com/clients/wedding-day-schedule/

both work OK so far.

Also, although I am using EXACTLY the same e-mail fields formats (“To:” “From:” “Subject:” “Additional Fields:” etc.. I get two errors on this form:
https://photosbymotti.com/clients/wedding-day-schedule/

I cannot find the problem.

Thank you for any help you can give me

Thank you. I did not go back to check it again. I will try some other time.

Thank you

You need CSS for that. Here is CSS example

.class_name {
	width:50% !important;
	padding-right:10px;
	float:left;
}

Add this to your CSS document at the end.

Now, in your form window, for the left column start by putting the div element:
<div class="class_name">

Then in it put the form elements that you need (email, name, phone etc,), After that close it with the:
</div> element

Do exactly the same for your right column (you can use the same class)

I have to agree. The standard PHP field-size code is not working, that’s too bad. Can help a lot.

Sounds good, I found some conditional codes and will try to apply them.

Cheers

My Body tag does not have 100% but it still does it. Any other possibility?
