Description

This plugin monitors Contact Form 7 submissions and logs submission, validation, repeater, and file upload events to help administrators troubleshoot form-related issues.

It can record:

  • Contact Form 7 submission stages and final status.
  • Validation failures and invalid fields.
  • Mail success and mail failure events.
  • WordPress wp_mail() errors associated with a submission.
  • Browser-side Contact Forms status events, relevant network failures, and relevant JavaScript errors.
  • Repeater-related submission and validation information.
  • Multiple-file upload validation and PHP upload errors.
  • Drag-and-drop file uploader AJAX activity.
  • Request URL, referrer, IP address, user agent, and detected email address for troubleshooting.

The plugin stores logs in dedicated database tables and provides an administrator screen with filtering, detailed event timelines, retention settings, and optional deletion of logs during uninstall.

Requirements

  • WordPress 6.2 or later.
  • PHP 7.4 or later.
  • Contact Form 7.

Support for repeater and drag-and-drop upload events is optional and is enabled when the corresponding third-party add-ons are present.
