Yes you are right, it was a theme conflict.

I will use a different theme.

Thanks so much for your super fast reply.

Hi

What WONDERFUL support.

I’ve just followed your instructions, sent (several) test submissions and I can confirm it has solved the issue.

You beautiful man!

Thanks

Hi there

I appreciate your comments very much and look forward to a good outcome.

I am so surprised that your plugin is the only one of it’s kind. I am surprised you “only” have have 992,218 downloads when contact form 7 and fast secure contact form combined have over 25million downloads – How are other people storing their form sumissions??!!

Any way, please can you provide me with a zip copy of version 2.8.8 or earlier please? I really need it for a couple of client sites (as well as my own). both myself and my clients are kind of lost without CFDB, it is very important for us.

Please can you provide this? I’d love you forever if you can do that!

I await

Thanks a lot.

??? I beleive I have found both the cause of the issue and also the solution???

??? This post is intended for anyone else who is having the problem as the below may help you solve it???

1. Cause of problem:
contact form 7 is conflicting with contact form DB by michael simpson

If anybody is using a version of contact form DB version 2.8.10 or later then chances are that your contact form 7 will refer EVERY SINGLE form submission as spam and therefore reject the submission. This is a conflict with contact form DB version 2.8.10 or later.

IF you are using contact form DB version 2.8.8 or earlier there is no known conflict as far as my testing goes.

2. Soultion to problem:
Deactivate contact form DB and that should solve the problem. contact form 7 should accept form submissions as normal as per your settings.

Summary
You will of course now be looking for another storage soultion for your contact form submissions as I am but as yet I have not found one. I will keep looking. I will also attempt to contact the author of contact form DB to alert him to this issue. hopefully this results in a fix.

I hope the above helps someone.

@rjaeckel – no, there ar eno issues liek that in my discussion settings

@buzztone – Have tried all possible solutions in that link but nothing has solved the problem.

This is really infuriating, everythng was working fine then suddenly it just stopped working.

Can anybody else help? Would like to hear from others who have had the same experience of every form being rejected as spam and what they did to solve it. Really frustrated.

Thanks

I will also add That I am NOT using Akismet nor any other type of “spam control” plugin, software or code.

I’ve been using contact form 7 happily for a long time and have changed NOTHING expect for updating the plugin as per the normal updates.

I really hope someone can provide me with some meaningful and helpful advice, this is really quite distressing for me.

Thanks
