   Hi there again, thanks for the help today already on a question which is now resolved. Here's another one that I hope some very kind person can answer. On Contact Form 7, I copied the code and threw it into my Contact page (using HTML), but its not rendering as a form - just the same copy I put in there. If I look at the page source of the guys site (who I just donated to :-) - the code is completely different for the form. Where am I going wrong?
   Here is the code I generated:
   <p>Your Name (required)
   [text* Your-Name 40/50] </p>

   <p>Your Email (required)
   [text* Your-Email 40/50] </p>

   <p>Your Company (required)
   [text* Company-Name 40/50]

   <p>Subject
   [text your-subject] </p>

   <p>Your Message
   [textarea your-message] </p>

   <p>[submit "Send"]</p>

   Unfortunately that's not how Contact 7 form works - you can't use it that way because the Contact Form 7 code is not HTML code. You need to exactly follow the instructions for the plug-in.

   Let us know if you get stuck.
