Hi @ruepointmarketing!

The Gated Content plugin is not going to be a good fit for what you want to do — we could probably hack around to make it do what you’re after, but ultimately that will be more complicated than it’s worth for your use case.

To redirect on submit, all you need is a small snippet of javascript which can be found directly on the Contact Form 7 website: https://contactform7.com/redirecting-to-another-url-after-submissions/

If that seems too complicated, there’s another plugin https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wpcf7-redirect/ which appears to do what you’re looking for. I have not tested and cannot vouch for this plugin, so be sure to validate that it meets all your requirements!

Hi @katrinmathis —

The gated content plugin does not hide the form for you, but adding Javascript to do so is pretty easy. Simply hook into the same JS event emitted by CF7 to do your hiding. It will look _something_ like this:

  document.addEventListener(
    "wpcf7submit",
    function (event) {
      var detail = event.detail;
      var status = detail.apiResponse.status;

      if (status === "mail_sent") {
        // hide the form
      }
    }
  );

@alexcowles well that’s annoying. Let me look into this. I’ve filed it as an issue on Github: https://github.com/apsislabs/cf7-gated-content/issues/19

Hi @leonku, thanks for raising the issue. I will take a look and see. My initial thought is that there is some bad interaction between recaptcha and our plugin.

Can you please let me know what plugin you use for recaptcha with CF7?

Sorry all — this plugin does nothing to address your needs and never will. There are other plugins which will add the functionality you’re looking for such as this one: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/contact-form-cfdb7/

Please note, I have not tested nor validated the above plugin, and cannot vouch for its quality.

@jennifinch1 can you send me a screenshot of your settings page for the gated content plugin? You can email me at [email protected]

@jennifinch1 I see the submit button is now available, and I do see the form submitting. I’ll see what I can find and respond here.

@jennifinch1 is there a page with the submit button that I can demo?

@jennifinch1 thanks for the report. It appears that there is a javascript error on your page, along with a number of content security policy errors. As such, the submission of your form is not working.

For diagnosis, I would disable the gated content plugin and ensure your form is working with Contact Form 7. If the page works as expected —?you can submit the form and receive an email?— then we can establish that the problem comes from our gated content plugin. If it is still non-functional, you’ll need to continue debugging to find the root cause.

@academyadmin What version of PHP were you using? We can at least update to give a much more helpful error message.

@phirefly thanks for letting me know. Can you send me an email at [email protected] with a link to the site where you’re seeing this? It will help me identify where the problem lies.

Thanks!

Hey @phirefly, I’ve just pushed 1.4.3, which should resolve this issue. Please let me know!

@phirefly yep, we have a fix for this issue pending. I am currently on my honeymoon, but it should be released as soon as I’m back at work on Monday. Thanks for your patience.

Hi @phirefly thanks for the bug report. Looks like we broke the ability to save the “Include Default CSS” option as false. I’ll put out a fix for this in the next couple days.

Nice feature idea. I’ll see if I can work it into the next release.
