Renaming the object-cache.php in /wp-content also worked for me. Thanks!

I found a solution posted here.

They populated the dropdown with post titles from a specified category.

The file you will need to modify is select.php and it is under the “modules” folder with in cf7.
Open up select.php and on line 93 (right under $label = $value;)
paste the following code.

if ($name == 'events') {

 $cf7_dropdown = new WP_Query("cat=1");
 while($cf7_dropdown->have_posts()) : $cf7_dropdown->the_post();  

	  if ( !in_array( get_the_title(), $do_not_duplicate ) ) {
		 $do_not_duplicate[] = array_unique($do_not_duplicate);
	 	 $html .= '<option value="' . esc_attr(get_the_title()) . '"' . '>' . esc_html(get_the_title()) . '</option>';
		  array_push($do_not_duplicate, get_the_title());

		}

				endwhile;
    } else {

In my case, I had a custom post type (Events), that needed to get a list of all events from this day forward (which is why the query string has the meta_value and meta_compare within it).

Here is the code I used:

// custom for events list
if ($name == 'events') {
 $cf7_dropdown = new WP_Query('post_type=event&numberposts=-1&order=ASC&meta_key=event_date&meta_compare=>=&meta_value=' . date("m/d/Y") . '&orderby=meta_value_num');
 while($cf7_dropdown->have_posts()) : $cf7_dropdown->the_post();
 setup_postdata($post);
  $custom = get_post_custom($post->ID);
	 	  $html .= '<option value="' . esc_attr(get_the_title()) . ' - ' . $custom["event_date"][0] . '"' . '>' . esc_html(get_the_title()) . ' - ' . $custom["event_date"][0] . '</option>';
endwhile;
    } else { //end custom for events list

Do note that with this, you’ll need to add a another closing bracket to the very end of the file – changing
<?php } ?>
to

<?php }
} ?>

Let me know if you’ve got any questions…

Found the answer to my question on this post.

Changed my code to a get_posts function which enabled me to use the meta_compare option in the query.

For anyone who might be wondering, my new code looks like this:

$postslist = get_posts('post_type=event&numberposts=4&order=ASC&meta_key=event_date&meta_compare=>=&meta_value=' . date("m/d/Y") . '&orderby=meta_value_num');
 foreach ($postslist as $post) :
 setup_postdata($post);
// post layout
endforeach;

Enjoy!
