 * The problem is that when I send a message from the contact section the form does
   not reset. The information of the sent message its all there. And it says its
   been sent again. Is there any solution for this?

 * Hey! I cracked the code last night with a friend (at least for my form – hope
   it can help you guys). We found a fail in the <input> … I am not a developer,
   so I think I will just paste it in and not try to explain what’s wrong 😀
 * **My input as it was:**
 *     ```
       <input required="required" type="text" name="myname" placeholder="<?php _e('Navn','zerif-lite'); ?>" class="form-control input-box" value="<?php if(isset($_POST['myname'])) echo esc_attr($_POST['myname']);?>">
       ```
   
 * **And how it is now (working):**
 *     ```
       <input required="required" id="formName" type="text" name="myname" placeholder="<?php _e('Navn','zerif-lite'); ?>" class="form-control input-box" value="<?php if(isset($_POST['myname']) && $hasError) echo esc_attr($_POST['myname']);?>">
       ```
   
 * … so we added **&& $hasError) **.
 * Good luck
