 * I cannot save changes to forms. “Something went wrong while saving your form”.
   This happens on new and old form.
 * I have a simple contact form that I can successfully update. I tried adding a
   Select field to it and then it would no longer let me update.
 *     ```

 * Hi [@cjhenrichs](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cjhenrichs/),
 * I hope you are doing good today.
 * I am afraid it looks more to be a conflict issue. Can you please try a complete
   conflict test to identify what might be causing the issue?
 * The following flowchart can help with a better understanding of the test process:

 * If this is a live website with traffic, please create a staging website to perform
   the conflict test. A staging website is a copy of your live site in a new directory
   on the same server with a separate database.
 * Please let us know the results to help you further.
 * Kind Regards,

 * After deactivating plugins and changing themes, I’ve narrowed the issue down 
   to a form with a Select field. I can update a form with any other type of field
   but when I try to add a Select field and update, I get the “Something went wrong
   while saving your form. Please try again.”
 * I’ve experienced this with a newly created form as well as older forms with a
   Select field.

 * Hi [@cjhenrichs](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cjhenrichs/)
 * If the issue is still happening with default theme and all other plugins disabled
   and it can be narrowed down to specific field type (“select” in this case) then
   we should focus on this line of the error mostly:
 * `POST http://ecngx318.inmotionhosting.com/~visua141/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php 406(
   Not Acceptable)`
 * It means that there was and AJAX request made to the server by the site but server
   rejected it and instead returned 406 status code. 406 means that server does 
   not accept specific content. Simply speaking – it doesn’t allow it.
 * That may be some firewall rule that’s a bit “oversensitive” or a matter of resources.
 * Is there any firewall on server that you are using and if yes, is there any log
   that possibly point to these requests? If yes, see if there’s an option to add
   such requests to exceptions or maybe add requests from your site’s IP to allow
   list. Sometimes it can be an option to allow certain “rule” – this all depends
   on firewall implementation.
 * If you see that there is such kind of firewall (you may also look for option 
   called “mod_security” or similar in cPanel) but you cannot see any way to add
   exception, please get in touch with your host support and ask them to check it
   and see if they can allow it.
 * If this is not the case or it still doesn’t help, let us know, please.
 * Kind regards,
    Adam
