In reply to: [Contact Form 7] WP 3.6 doesn't work with CF7Yep it’s a hard way but waiting for 3.7 isn’t an option as I have a live site, and for some reason copying the other versions of phpmailer.php just didn’t work for me. And having read some other forums there are some people in the same position. So yep, it’s a dirty workaround but it works on Bluehost and will keep me going until 3.7

In reply to: [Contact Form 7] WP 3.6 doesn't work with CF7Not sure if anyone here experiencing the problem are on Bluehost, but just in case – I’ve just found a solution for my Bluehost hosted sites.
The solution relates to making sure that the contact form FROM email is changed from the user-entered value on the form to a fixed email that exists on your Bluehost account. It doesn’t matter whether you use Bluehost for your email. I use Google but I simply created a dummy email entry on Bluehost and it worked fine.
So the email from Contact Form 7 will arrive showing that it was sent from that new fixed address. This means that you have to make sure you include the user-entered address in your message body, otherwise you will not be able to reply back.
Now, before I upgraded to WordPress 3.6 I got away without having to do this, but since I’ve upgraded it’s the only way I could get the contact form to work. Check out the full solution here: http://wordpress.shadowlantern.com/how-to-make-contact-form-7-work-on-bluehost/
