 * [contact-form-7 id=”3489″ title=”Contact Trip Guide Form”]
 * I am unable to identify the Validation Error
 * Here is the code to the page that the form is on

 * You put the shortcode into invalid place.

 * Check HTML source of the page. You’ll find you have put `[contact-form-7 id="
   3489" title="Contact Trip Guide Form"]` shortcode inside `<p><strong></strong
   ></p>`.

 * I have rebuilt the contact form a couple of times now, it worked a couple of 
   times, but I had to adjust the fields as I was testing the form and how the email
   message came through.
 * I removed the code you suggested and but [contact-form-7 id=”3489″ title=”Contact
   Trip Guide Form”] is still showing yellow validation error.
 * Also I cannot delete file fields once browsed and selected could there be something
   wrong with the code in the fields i created?
