Your server might have PHP error display turned off so it does not show what the error says. You can try this temporarily to possibly see the error. * Edit the wp-config.php file and add this line: `define('WP_DEBUG', true);` * Be sure to remove it later when done testing as some poorly written plugins and themes will display warnings that are not really hard errors just warnings. * Was there an error? * **If there are no errors…** * The theme you are using could be causing it… Do this as a test: In Admin, click on Appearance, Themes. Temporarily activate your theme to a WP default one… * “Twenty Twelve” (default for WP 3.5+) * It does not cause any harm to your WP to temporarily change the theme test and then and change back. Does it work properly with a default WP theme? If it does then the theme you are using is the cause. * **Maybe another plugin is conflicting…** Look on the Admin – Plugins – menu. Temporarily Disable (not uninstall) all your other plugins. Does it work now? If yes, Activate each of the plugins one by one to determine which one conflicts. Test if the problem goes away after activating each plugin one at a time. This way you can determine which plugin was causing the problem. * Did you determine the the cause? * Thread Starter [bwoff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bwoff/) * (@bwoff) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-138/#post-3407781) * maybe i’ll just post my e-mail on the page, or i could just delete it and try another plugin? * thats a lot to go thru for someone who just began using wordpress one month ago. i don’t even know where to find the wp-config file. * [Michael J Challis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikechallis/) * (@mikechallis) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-138/#post-3407786) * All of this testing can take 5 minutes. * Thread Starter [bwoff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bwoff/) * (@bwoff) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-138/#post-3407795) * first of all, i wasn’t lying when i told you i didnt even know where the wp-config file is? it might take you 5 minutes, not me. * and after finding it and making the change, how am i now going to make heads or tails out of it? * Thread Starter [bwoff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bwoff/) * (@bwoff) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-138/#post-3407797) * it isn’t the theme and it isn’t the plugins. * there was a long list of warnings in the config.php and i have no idea of what any of it means. the only thing i found that says something is wrong is this: * Notice: register_uninstall_hook was called incorrectly.

So hopefully the issue can be resolved for good. Will you test it? * All you need to do is FTP to your server, and upload some files that I can send you. * Fill out my [support form](http://www.fastsecurecontactform.com/support) and go ahead and ignore the donation request it asks for. Then I will send you the files to test. * Mike * Thread Starter [bwoff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bwoff/) * (@bwoff) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-138/#post-3407917) * sure. will do. i already sent a ticket for support to my host, but haven’t heard back of yet, so let’s see if this works. * i just sent in the form. * [fastjay4](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fastjay4/) * (@fastjay4) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-138/#post-3407921) * I’m having a similar problem even though I use it on another website (same hosting) where it works fine. It just redirects to the same page (without any errors – even if I omit an obligatory field) and doesn’t send. I have done the following:– the FSCF test e-mail works – I have disabled all the other pluggins – no change– I have changed the theme to TwentyTwelve – no change – seeing the issue with hosting at GoDaddy, I have tried the plugin WP MAIL SMTP (test e-mail works) but it doesn’t help. – I have tried every combination mentioned on the e-mail tab regarding the ‘enable when web host requires “mail from” etc. – no change Can you please help ?
