Dear SMW55,
Please update your Form Maker to the latest version, then reinsert the form shortcodes.
Thank you.

OK, updated to v.1.7.25 and tested the form but still not working. Something is preventing the form from working.
Dear SMW55,
Did you reinsert the shortcodes? Also if you have added a tag to the shortcode before, please remove it.
Thank you.

I never used any tags and yes I reinserted the shortcodes, how else could I test the form. All this has happened since upgrading to 4.0 in WordPress, I had Form Maker forms on many websites that worked fine, now most of them do not work any more no matter what I try.
I’m having the same issues. I’ve upgraded everything. Deactivated/reactivated the plugin. I removed the shortcode, saved the page, put the shortcode back in and saved the page again. NOTHING I’m using Graphine theme (the latest update)
Dear SMW55 and cheslights,
Please try following these steps:
1. Go to your Plugins section of the WordPress admin panel of your website.
2. Find Form Maker and click Edit under the plugin title, you will access the plugin editor.
3. Please scroll down to the end of the code and add the following code before the PHP main ?> closing brackets:
add_shortcode(‘Form’, ‘fm_shortcode’);
function fm_shortcode($attrs) {
$new_shortcode = ‘[Form’;
foreach ($attrs as $key=>$value) {
$new_shortcode .= ‘ ‘ . $key . ‘=”‘ . $value . ‘”‘;
}
$new_shortcode .= ‘]’;
return $new_shortcode;
}
If this doesn’t work, please contact us to [email protected] and we’ll take a look.
Thank you.

I had found this add on to the PHP code in another post and tried it then. It immedidately told me that the Form Maker plugin detected an error and was being deactivated.
SMW55
I was looking to installing this plug in. I am wondering if your issue was resolved and if it was how was it resolved?
Just wanting to know before trying.

Form Maker is a nice plugin that I have used for years. Recently, however, since the upgrade to WP 4.1, it has stopped working on some of my sites which doesn’t make sense why all of them aren’t working. But I am still in the process of getting Webdorado to see if they can find what is going on. Will let you know.
Dear cbonal,
Please make sure to try out the lite version first. The problem has been resolved in the latest versions for both lite and pro.
Thank you.

Dear Webdorado
I had given you access to two of my websites for testing and have not heard back in over a week as to what the results are. Have you discovered anything that is blocking the forms from working? Please let me know as soon as you can.
I have also not been able to publish the form maker form and I need this with urgency.
I have formmaker PRO.
@jesusroj – PRO version help isn’t here – ww.wp.xz.cn forums are only for free version support. Please contact the developer directly.
Dear SMW55,
Looks like your server has some mailing limitations, which are preventing Form Maker to send the submissions to some specific servers. We have tested with GMail e-mail addresses and received them, we’ve also tested the SMTP mail functionality with GMail and the test mails have been sent.
Here’s how you can check this yourself. Please install an SMTP plugin, e.g. WP SMTP (https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-smtp/) and send a test mail to your e-mail, which aren’t receiving the submissions in its settings. Please contact your hosting provider to solve the problem.
@jesusroj – please contact us by e-mail to [email protected].
Thank you
