    Hi,

    I have a simple form like this:

    <div class="advertising tg-bshadow">
[text your-name placeholder "Name"]
[tel your-phone placeholder "Phone"]
[email* your-email placeholder "Email*"]
[radio your-subject use_label_element default:1 "Advertising" "Digital Marketing"]
[textarea your-message placeholder "Message"]
[submit "Send Enquiry"]
</div>

    It’s triggering a fatal error on submission, please fix:
    PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get_status() on null in /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/includes/contact-form.php:768\nStack trace:\n#0 /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/includes/controller.php(25): WPCF7_ContactForm->submit()\n#1 /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(285): wpcf7_control_init()\n#2 /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(311): WP_Hook->apply_filters(NULL, Array)\n#3 /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-includes/plugin.php(551): WP_Hook->do_action(Array)\n#4 /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-includes/class-wp.php(388): do_action_ref_array('parse_request', Array)\n#5 /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-includes/class-wp.php(745): WP->parse_request('')\n#6 /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-includes/functions.php(1291): WP->main('')\n#7 /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-blog-header.php(16): wp()\n#8 /home/sites/example.com/www/index.php(17): require('/home/sites/the...')\n#9 {main}\n thrown in /home/sites/example.com/www/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/includes/contact-form.php on line 768, referer: https://example.com/advertise

    Where can we see the website in question?

    @takayukister it’s a client multisite so I would prefer not to disclose it… though it should not matter, as the fatal error trace is provided above.

    You have to check if it’s an object, before actually calling get_status() on it.
    And you could also use try, catch https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.exceptions.php

    What other plugins and theme do you use on the site?

    WP 5.7 running.

    You can solve this by checking if it’s an object earlier.
    /contact-form-7/includes/contact-form.php:768

    Here is what I did:

    View post on imgur.com

    This will ensure the code exits earlier, and never reach the $submission->get_status() because, it’s not an object.

    Try switching to the default theme and deactivating all plugins excluding Contact Form 7, Classic Editor, Flamingo, and WP Mail SMTP.

    Why you are advised to deactivate plugins and switch to the default theme.

    I’m sorry but I cannot do that on production. The site is over 100GB and would take a long time to clone it just for this.

    Some forms work fine, only that one doesn’t.
    Either way, you should check if an object is an object before calling it.
    It’s best practice to check your data before calling it and it prevents the error.
