There’s something going on with the CSS in your custom theme. For example, the following is not getting applied, which is likely causing the boxes to appear before each icon:

.sharing li, .sharing-hidden li {
list-style: none outside none !important;
}

If you switch to Twenty Ten or Twenty Eleven, the icons should look correct.

Thanks for the report. This should be fixed in an upcoming bug release.

If you look at http://yourURL.com/wp-admin/profile.php, you’ll see that there are four fields for “name”:

• username
• first name
• last name
• nickname

By default, the contact form is looking at the “nickname” field for a logged in user. I’m guessing that in your case, like mine, it is set at the default, which is for the nickname to be the same as username.

When I look at the page, the fields are empty (which is the intended default if logged out). If you are logged in, it should be pulling your user account information. Could you try a different browser, just to make sure?

If you’d like to set defaults, you could do something like this:

[contact-form] [contact-field label="Name" type="name" required="true" default="DEFAULT NAME" /] [contact-field label="Email" type="email" required="true" /] [contact-field label="Website" type="url" /] [contact-field label="Comment" type="textarea" required="true" /] [/contact-form]

Just add a default="" parameter to each contact-field.

@cozbaldwin: I’m not sure that the theme header is directly responsible, but it is possible that the theme is at fault, hence why I recommended you switch to a different theme to see if the contact form will show up. Check with the company to see if they have an updated version of the theme. I’ll also start looking at your plugins and see if I can see any that conflict.

@everyone else: please provide a URL to your form that doesn’t work. Also, try these two steps:

1. Disable all other plugins, check to see if the form is working, then enable plugins one-by-one until the form disappears.

2. Switch to a default theme (Twenty Ten or Twenty Eleven) and see if the form appears. If it does, switch back to your theme.
