Thanks for the wp_footer() tip. For us, we have disabled wp_head() because of too many versions of jQuery or Prototype being present. To solve this issue we had to re-enable wp_head and it worked, we’ve inspected which JS it needed as extra, and the turned it off again to prevent further errors. (Sometimes it is necessary to decide yourself in what order these scripts are referred to, the order itself can cause error or solve an issue.)

Hi Sarah,

It’s worth checking your Junk Mail or similar folder if you haven’t received an email from Contact Form 7. Depending on your email provider’s settings, they might also require a valid reverse DNS check to work – meaning you’d need to ensure the Contact Form 7’s from email address is a valid SMTP user.

Tim.

Creating a second form and using it instead of the first/default did not work for me, but adding wp_footer to my footer file did. …I think. The form sent and didn’t take me to a 404, but I have not received the email, eek.

Good point, pravin – it’s always worth checking you have wp_footer() in your theme’s footer.php file, as it can be used by plugins.

Hello I had “page not found”(Error 404) error on form submission.

I rectified it by adding
wp_footer();
line in footer.php of my theme.

Now it is working fine.
