Hi guys,

I know you don’t support third-party plugins, but as Contact Form 7 is the most popular contact form (and one of your recommended plugins) thought I’d let you know.

The ajax loader is not working as WPCF7 have changed the markup for the submit buttons in the latest version of the plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/changelog/).

The other theme I use is looking at the changes, so though you guys should know

Hey Steve,

I do not get this issue. It could be only on your end. Please try testing for a plugin conflict.

Also, X only includes basic styling for Contact Form 7 so it is unlikely to cause function conflicts.

If I’m not understanding you correctly, please provide screenshots or steps to replicate the issue.

Thanks.

Hi Christian,

I’ve already deactivated all plugins and the ajax loader gif still doesn’t show. I then switched to wordpress 2017 theme and the loader gif works, then reactivated all plugins… loader works. Then switched back to X… no loader.

So there is a theme conflict. Have you updated to the latest version of WPCF7 (v 4.6)?

The form still works, it’s just the loader.gif (important to the user experience to let you know something is happening) doesn’t appear.

Sorry for the confusion. This isn’t a theme conflict but rather X disabled Contact Form 7 styles for performance reasons so this includes the loader gif. Please add the code below in your functions.php to add just the loader back.

add_action('wp_head', 'add_loader_gif');

function add_loader_gif() {
  echo '<style>.wpcf7 .ajax-loader{background-image: url('. plugins_url() .'/contact-form-7/images/ajax-loader.gif);visibility:hidden;display:inline-block;width:16px;height:16px;border:none;padding:0;margin:0 0 0 4px;vertical-align:middle}.wpcf7 .ajax-loader.is-active{visibility:visible}</style>';
}

I’ll forward this to our development team for official support.

Thanks.

I’ve been hunting high and low to resolve this issue, and was about to contact you for help as I wondered if it was an X theme issue

(i’d updated to latest version too but still the contact 7 ajax loader wasn’t showing (the div was there but no gif))
