# HTTPS Contact Form 7 = Email Failure to Send.

 * I am using WP 3.6.1, WordPress HTTPS 3.3.6, and CF7 3.5.3
 * When I use Force SSL on just the page that uses my contact form I am able to 
   get to the secure page and fill out the form. When I hit send I get the green
   box and it looks like everything worked. However, the email fails to show up.
 * When I remove the page from being secured by SSL then it works fine. Is there
   anyway I can get these to all work such that the information being sent is secure?
 * Thanks for any help.

 * Hi dailoto,
 * I have a similar issue using gravity forms – it doesn’t work when the email notification
   is set to email the email set in the form.
 * Did you get this working?

 * I have contact 7 form on my site + the HTTPS plug in. After much trial and error
   I was able to successfully send an attachment while the HTTPS plug in was activated.
   What finally worked for me was to uncheck “Force SSL Exclusively” under HTTPS
   >General Settings. I also have “Force SSL Administration” unchecked as it slowed
   everything down too much for me.
 * At first, after buying a SSL Certificate, I could not get the domain to be “https”
   until I used this plug-in. In order to get it to work, I had to enter “/” for
   a URL Filter as suggested by this plug-in designer. This effectively makes all
   of my pages “https” which plays havoc when I try to embed simple (but unsecure)
   things like Ted Talk videos. I’m working on that now.
 * Hope this helps.

 * I got an error message after the hosting install the SSL certificate and force
   wp https with the contact form 7 installed in the page.
 * Can anyone please help?

   PLEASE HELP.
    SSL Error Icon This is probably not the site you are looking for!
   You attempted to reach [http://www.mandylaw.ca](http://www.mandylaw.ca), but 
   instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as incapsula.com. This
   may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious.
   An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially
   harmful) version of [http://www.mandylaw.ca](http://www.mandylaw.ca). You should
   not proceed, especially if you have never seen this warning before for this site.
   Proceed anyway Back to safety
