Hi Evan,

Thanks for responding, and Happy New Year!

I added example code of a simple form, where on it would I place the <?php — ?> string? At the top?

And if I want the contents after the hash to go in my Subject field, where do I put the ‘echo’ string?

Thanks so much for your help!

<div class="formleft">
    [text* your-name class:forminput watermark "Your Name *"]
    [text* company-name class:forminput watermark "Company Name *"]
    [email* your-email class:forminput watermark "Your Email *"]
</div>

<div class="formright">
    [text* your-subject class:forminput watermark "Subject *"]
</div>

<div class="buttonsend">
[submit class:submit_button "Send"]
</div>

<div class="response">
[response]
</div>

Hello Takayuki,

I really appreciate you personally responding to posts in this forum.
I just switched to the default WP theme and deactivated all other plugins.

I also made a clean install of the plugin before I tested this.

I still have the same problem, I can’t click on any links that are on the same page as the form.

This is what my form field looks like in the Contact Form 7 Preferences, for example the link on top is visible, but is not clickable. Even if I put it inside the Form div. Perhaps this excerpt should show something wrong with my code.

<p><a href"info@gsdnyc.com">info@gsdnyc.com</a></p>

<div id="form">

<div class="formheader">Your Information</div>

<div class="formleft">
    [text* your-name class:forminput watermark "Your Name *"] </p>
    [email* your-email class:forminput watermark "Your Email *"] </p>
</div>

<div class="formright">
[text your-subject class:forminput watermark "Subject"] </p>
[text telephone-number class:forminput watermark "Telephone Number"] </p>
</div>

<div class="formsection4">
<div class="formheader">Your Message</div>

[textarea* your-message class:forminput2 watermark "Your Message *"] </p>

</div>

<div class="formsection5">
<div class="formheader">Input the text displayed *</div>
[captchac captcha-785 class:captcha bg:#0d0d0d fg:#ffffff size:l]
[captchar captcha-785 class:forminput]
</div>

<div class="buttonsend">
[submit class:submit_button "Send"]
</div>

<div class="smalltext">
<p>Fields marked with * are required.</p>
</div>

<div class="response">

</div>

I’ve tried reinstalling Contact Form 7, but it doesn’t change anything.. I hope somebody here has experienced the same and knows of a way around it!

Thanks for the response Takayuki, I appreciate it!

I think I figured out what went wrong, because I did not want to mess with the plugin’s default CSS (since I might want to use it with another future theme), I decided to copy the CSS values to my theme’s style.css document. This seemed to work with the one of the values I tested it with, but it was causing conflicts and my changes wouldn’t override the original styles.css.

I hope that explanation makes sense.. 🙂

I’ll change the thread to resolved as soon as I manage to style the error messages properly..

I meant Custom Form Fields.

Good to know, that means CF7 is the one to go with. Thank you everyone!

Thank you for your detailed reply, chellycat!

I want it in place, or in addition to this line in the sidebar of my blog. (sidebar.php)

<?php wp_list_categories('show_count=1&title_li='); ?>

So it isn’t for the archive page, it should be visible on most pages.
