Contact Forms 7

    I am trying to debug a broken Contact Form 7 but I can’t figure out the tags usage in the theme I used.

    Basically the code below doesn’t substitute the values but returns the pre-loaded snippets. So an example email would look something like this: “From: [your-name] 
    Subject: [your-subject]

    Message Body:
    [your-message]”

    And this is the code. Any lead appreciated!

    [text* text-475 id:text-475 class:form-control placeholder “Name”]

    [email* email-438 id:email-438 class:form-control placeholder “Email”]

    [text* text-479 id:text-479 class:form-control placeholder “Phone”]

    [textarea textarea-787 id:textarea-787 class:form-control placeholder “Tell Us About Project *”]

    Hello!

    You need to use the same tags in the form as your email.

    Both of the following would work:

    Change the Form code to [text* your-name id:text-475 class:form-control placeholder “Name”]

    Or change the Email content to From: [text-475]

    Either put the tags used in the form code in your email template. or put the email template tags in your form code. They have to be the same. Your website has no idea that text-475 is actually your-name (or vice versa)
