 * OK, found the problem. It wasn’t the plugin, but a ridiculous content composer
   plugin that caused the wrong urls.

 * Sorry, it is NOT included from the form_engine.php. Or at least: If I change 
   something, nothing happens on the frontend. So, what’s going on here?

 * Usually it is. But you can’t depend on it. I use Thunderbird, and the confirmation
   link was not converted to a clickable link. Don’t know why, but it wasn’t. Furthermore,
   the line breaks were not converted to proper HTML line breaks. The result was
   something like this:
 * `Hello, Thank you for signing our petition. Please confirm your email: https://
   example.com/?dkspeakoutconfirm=242f2b489c908b9f&lang=`
 * By the way, suddenly WordPress stopped sending the confirmation emails. I couldn’t
   figure out why. Then I found that due to an autofill mistake a text was saved
   instead of a proper email (settings > confirmation emails > sender email). If
   you don’t fill in a fully valid email address, it won’t send any email at all.
   Might be a good idea to add a warning and save youself some trouble. 🙂

 * I get your point. However, you wouldn’t believe how, say, unexperienced users
   are. To manually copy a link and paste it in the browser is without any doubt
   some challenge for many. I have customers who asked me: What is an URL? Where
   should I put it?
 * Overwriting core files is always a bad idea, since it is not update-safe. A hook
   would be the way to go.
 * Don’t get me wrong: I appreciate your effort and support and thank you very much
   for sharing this plugin with us. These are just some ideas for improvements (
   from the user’s point of view).

 * Thanks a lot. Almost there. I added the `<a>` and `<p>` tags. The textarea line
   breaks were not converted to `<br />`. Inline styles are working, too. Nice! 
   The `<a>` tag is quite important, in my humble opinion. Is there a reason not
   to include the `<p>` tag? Anybody who can write HTML will probably know how to
   use is.

 * Thanks for the support! No need for a complex email, but a pretty one. 🙂 These
   days, users expect large buttons and stuff. Would you mind posting the mod here?
   So we wouldn’t have to wait for the update.

 * Awesome, thank you! Allow me to be greedy! Today, people are used to high quality
   HTML emails. A simple HTML email is better than plain text. However, it would
   be much more elegant, if we could add CSS and complex HTML. Could you tweak the
   strip_tags command so that even tables and CSS would be accepted? At least tables
   and inline css styles should be possible. That’s enough for acceptable HTML emails.

 * I didn’t mean “admin email” but “confirmation email”. With this feature enabled,
   not only an additional email input field is added to the form. The submitter 
   will receive a confirmation email with a link. You can then return the submitter
   to the signatures list that will already show the new entry. Much better UX in
   my opinion.

 * Ah, not quite there. I’ve just tested the widget form. The lightbox overlay shows
   a checkbox (show honorific) but not the dropdown itself. In addition to that,
   there is a shortcode [your signature] on the left side. See here my test installation
   with no other plugins activated and the plugin untouched:

 * We use standard p, br and a tags in the textarea where we can change the text
   for the confirmation email (SpeakOut! > settings > confirmation emails) I change
   the serialized data directly in the options table. However, this is not a solution.
   Any changes in the settings would overwrite this.

 * Oh, I have to apologize. I used the shortcode in a textwidget. Totally overlooked
   the petition widget. Sorry, my mistake.
 * I had changed the widget to a simple link to the petition page, since the site
   is already live. This is why you couldn’t see the code. The widget works perfectly
   fine now.
 * Thanks a lot!

 * I’ve just checked this in my test installation: WP 4.9.4, Twenty16, no other 
   plugins activated. Same problem. The widget is simple not working.
