In reply to: [reCaptcha by BestWebSoft] BWS Panel?gandsnut,
To remove it, for some strange reason the plugin does not show like the other plugins in the plungin list.
Go to the plugin page, on the search field on the right search for “BestWebSoft” and they will show up. You have to deactivate it first and then you can finally and happily delete it.

In reply to: [reCaptcha by BestWebSoft] BWS Panel?More than a plugin this is plain and full advertisement. You cannot do much without the paid version. The free version is so intrusive that it barely lasted 30 minutes in my computer before I deactivated it and deleted it.
Seriously, the plugin is more about information on other products than anything else.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Contact Form 7] HTML input instead of Contact Form 7 tagsI have been trying to find a workaround for several days.
Some of the html input tags will work fine with CF7 while other will result in errors.
The two main issues I had are:
1) Fields that require validation will not be rejected even if not completed by the user
2) CF7 does not validate the “Reply To:” and “Mail to” fields unless these are formatted with cf7 input tags (i.e.[email* sender-email placeholder "Please enter a valid email address"]In my case, the html code looks like this – for a selectable required field
<label class="quote-req-label">Salutation*</label> <span class="wpcf7-form-control-wrap salutation"> <select class="salutation wpcf7-validates-as-required" name="salutation" aria-required="true"> <option value="" disabled selected>Select</option> <option>Mr.</option> <option>Mrs.</option> <option>Ms.</option> </select>Here is the html for the email section:
<label class="quote-req-label">E-mail*</label> <span class="wpcf7-form-control-wrap sender-email"> <input type="email" name="sender-email" value="" size="40" class="wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-text wpcf7--email wpcf7-validates-as-required wpcf7-validates-as-email" aria-required="true" aria-invalid="false" placeholder="Your email"/>The only way I found to make this work was using CF7 input format for these particular fields.
I am not a developper, and basically I have been playing by ear trying to find a way to basically import my html forms created in Dreamweaver into CF7.
Thanks

In reply to: How can i install a plugin on localhost?I recently ran into the same issue. There are different solutions depending on each scenario.
If you install WP directly on localhost, the wp-config file works fine without adding define(‘FS_METHOD’, ‘direct’);DB location should be
/** MySQL hostname */
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);In my case, I installed WP locally from another machine on the network using a static ip address (otherwise the localhost WP can be only accessed from the machine where it was installed to.
In this case the wp-config.php file has to be modified:/** MySQL hostname */
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘xxx.xxx.x.xx’);
(Replace xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with the static ip address used to install WPAdd the following line to the wp-config.php file
define(‘FS_METHOD’, ‘direct’);Adding the above line without modifying the DB_HOST line won’t solve the issue.
