 * When you klick “Submit” button, there is not the info-box “Submitted successfully”–
   instead it shows the turning circle arrows and an
 * Error message:
 * JSON.parse: unexpected non-whitespace character after JSON data at line 1 column
   131 of the JSON data
 * I deinstalled the plugin and tried again, error message still shown.
 * Why? How can I fix it?
    Thanks for replying, Elke

 * LÖSUNG:
 * -> ein altes Plugin “WP Super Cache” mit dem ich schon mehrfach Probleme hatte,
   weshalb es schon seit längerer Zeit deinstalliert ist, hat die Dateien: “advance-
   cache.php” und “wp-cache-config.php” in der Webinstallation zurückgelassen. Diese
   beiden Dateien haben die Fehlermeldung verursacht. Nachdem ich die Dateien umbenannt/
   gelöscht hatte lief Contact Form 7 wieder in gewohnter Manier.
 * Solution:
 * The Plugin “WP Super Cache” – deleted months ago – left some files that produced
   the error
