Firstly I’d recommend you consider using a submission storage plugin like Contact Form DB or Contact Form 7 Storage to save all your CF7 form submits to the WP database. These are often used by experienced WP users – they provide a robust record of all form submissions even when things go a little wrong.
To look at your problem please include a link to your Contact Form 7 form plus all your input in the Form and Mail sections of the CF7 interface.
Thanks for your answer.
Here is the content of my contact form:
<p>
[text* your-name placeholder “Nom*”] </p>
<p>
[email* your-email placeholder “Email*”] </p>
<p>
[tel* your-tel placeholder “Téléphone*”] </p>
<p>
[textarea* your-message placeholder “Message*”] </p>
<p>[submit “Envoyer”]</p>
And here the email I received (empty data):
De : [your-name] <[your-email]>
Sujet : [your-subject]
Corps du message :
[your-message]
The link to my contact form: http://www.alovelyday.ch/contact
Can you help me to retrieve the missing data in the email so that I know who contacted me?
Thanks a lot.
RE: Can you help me to retrieve the missing data in the email so that I know who contacted me?
Sorry no – their gone – that’s one of the reasons I always use a submission storage plugin with Contact Form 7.
You supplied your info from the Form section but not the Mail section.
You need to add the fields you want sent by email in both the Form section & Mail: Message body: section of the Contact Form 7 interface and each field needs to be matched exactly as follows:
For example considering one of the fields provided in your info above.
In the Form section you use:
[tel* your-tel placeholder “Téléphone*”]
In the Mail: Message body: section you need to use:
[your-tel]
You need to do this for every field you want sent by email.
Hi MaryReb,
I think your code in displaying the submitted data are correct, for future implementation you need to install Contact form DB as mention above by @buzztone for you to save the submitted data for future use.
Also you can troubleshoot your website by disabling plugin that cause the conflict with contact form 7.
