 * What a find!! Thank you.
 * I have a redirect connected to Contact Form 7 that goes to another page on the
   site. It works great, except on my ipad. The page simply refreshes. I do not 
   have checked off ‘Use External’ or ‘Open in new Tab’
 * Is there an issue with the ipad?
 * thank you!

 * Hmm, I just tested on my iPad as I’m currently working on a bunch of redirects
   and it worked fine for me. I think there used to be an issue with using “location
   =” to redirect versus “location.href =” but that doesn’t seem to be an issue 
   now. Are you on an older version of iOS?

 * Thanks for the response. Yes, it’s second or third generation, so it’s old. I’m
   sure that’s it. I created a survey & the client is taking to a trade show and
   will be using a tablet. Tbey plan to test it out this weekend, so I’ll hear if
   there’s an issue.
 * Great plugin. I had a bunch of redirects in functions.php and this is much better.

 * Which version of iOS are you on, out of curiosity? iPad 2/3 can only go up to
   iOS 9, so that may be the issue.
 * Here’s a fix to try which could confirm if my suspicion is correct, and if so
   maybe the plugin author can roll this into the next update. Open /plugins/wpcf7-
   redirect/js/wpc7-redirect-script.js or go to Plugins > Editor > Contact Form 
   7 Redirection and click on wpc7-redirect-script.js and replace:
 *     ```
       line 26:
       location = form.thankyou_page_url;
   
       with:
       location.href = form.thankyou_page_url;
       ```
   
 * and if you’re using any external URLs, also replace:
 *     ```
       line 17:
       location = form.external_url;
   
       with:
       location.href = form.external_url;
       ```
   
 * Then reload your form page and try again, see if that fixes the redirect issue.

 * Thank you for your report. Just checked with iPad 4 and Safari and Chrome – there
   seems to be a problem with redirection. We will update the plugin with a fix 
   within a week.
 * [@fastasleep](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fastasleep/), Thank you for
   your suggestion. We will try your solution and update.

 * Thanks for getting that out. Unfortunately, it’s not working on my iPad (second
   generation). I know it’s old, so I’m willing to give up, but I know people still
   use them. Thanks.
