    Log files are being created at a rate of MB per minute in the folder below:

    Files in /public_html/wp-content/uploads/f12-logs
    Files are named in the format “plugins-2025-09-28.log”

    Error messages as follows:

    [2025-09-28 22:58:03] [INFO] [f12-cf7-captcha] Plugin gestartet {“plugin”:”f12-cf7-captcha”,”version”:”2.2.48″}

    Hello @umdiecker ,

    thank you for reporting this. The current log creation is tied to the global debug mode.
    Please set the following in your wp-config.php to stop the log output for now:

    define('WP_DEBUG', false);

    We will release a quick fix later today that introduces a dedicated constant for enabling logs, independent of WP_DEBUG. This way logging can be switched on deliberately, without relying on the global debug flag.

    The line define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false); is already in the wp-config.php file. So unfortunately that isn’t helping.
