 * i was recently running the pinboard theme on my site [http://www.motortrader-insurance.com](http://www.motortrader-insurance.com)
   and using the vfb pro to capture leads and after a few hicups at the start everything
   has been working fine.
 * Recently changed to info child theme ive created but now the form emails are 
   not being recived. Can a theme stop a plug in from performing properly??

 * Can’t really say what’s causing your particular problem, but yes a poorly created
   theme can cause problems with plugins and vice versa.
