 * Hi,
 * Great plugin – it does exactly what I need it to. I am having one small issue
   though:
 * With the Dynamic Text option enabled – if I simply submit my form, it throws 
   no errors, it just emails me the generic dynamic text values that are the field
   placeholders.
 * Here is my code:
 * `[dynamictext* FirstName 24/22 class:field_cf7 "First Name"]`
 * Am I missing something simple here? I don’t want to be receiving tons of emails
   with generic form entries of First Name, Last Name…etc.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * In case it wasn’t clear – if I don’t enter anything and just click submit – the
   form goes through without errors that would usually come up in CF7.
 * Thanks.

 * I have the exact same issue.
 * With an empty form, the spinner just keeps spinning, no validation seems to take
   place.
    When the form fields are filled, the form is sent.
 * When debugging it throws the following error:
 * `Fatal error: Call to a member function message() on a non-object in /wp-content/
   plugins/contact-form-7-dynamic-text-extension/contact-form-7-dynamic-text-extension.
   php on line 256`
 * The function hasn’t changed at all in releases, and I have the exact same form
   running on Version: 1.0.4.2 and CF7 Version: 3.4.2 and it works, so after trying
   CF version 3.4.2 it works fine, so this issue comes from a recent update to CF7.
 * I hope this can be fixed soon.

 * Ok, the issue occurs only on the most recent version of CF7 – version 3.7. I 
   have tried it with version 3.6 and it works as expected.
 * So **roll-back to version 3.6** ( the download is: [http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/contact-form-7.3.6.zip](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/contact-form-7.3.6.zip))
   and don’t update until this issue is fixed.

 * Hi guys,
 * It looks like the main plugin, CF7, changed the way it does things. In CF7DTX’s
   PHP file, you’ll see this line (for me it is 161)
 * `$result['reason'][$name] = $wpcf7_contact_form->message( 'invalid_required' );`
 * Try changing it to
 * `$result['reason'][$name] = wpcf7_get_message( 'invalid_required' );`
 * and see if that solves it. (Let me know 🙂 )
 * [@ricardo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ricardo/), please start your own
   thread when you have a question. That error seems to be occurring because the
   theme you are using is already including a version of this plugin within the 
   theme itself (which is really not a good way of doing things). By installing 
   the plugin you get a duplicate version, which causes the error.
 * Hope that helps!
 * Chris
