If I submit a form, I get a fatal error anf forms are not submitted.

When I deactivate the plugin, no error anymore and forms are sent succesfully.

See Error Log Below

And I didn't got any email from wordpress to advertise me that a fatal error occurred.

Hi there

I have tried to reproduce the error on a test site on one of servers, but cannot.

You can check the test site yourself logging in with this link, and I would invite you to make any changes you think necessary to trigger the error:

hidden link

On your own site (preferably a staging site), can you please try to reproduce the problem on a minimal install, that is to say, disable all plugins except for WPForms and WPML plugins, and switch to a default theme such as twentytwentyone, then try submitting a form again.

If you no longer experience the error then that suggests that some other code is also required to trigger the issue (and which explains why the issue doesn't occur on my test site), and you should be able to determine which by a process of elimination as you re-activate plugins and revert theme.

Let me know what you find.

Dimitri, got the exact same issue since 2 days, same error log as well... Did you figure how to solve it?

@drissT did you try the same steps I suggested above, seeing if the issue happens on a minimal install and trying to locate any conflicts?

I'd recommend you create your own thread about the problem (you can reference this thread) so that if we need to examine your site or need it for testing we can arrange that privately.

@drisst No, not yet. I momentously deactivate the plugin. Each time I activate it, problem is back. As the site is in production, I can not deactivate plugins and make test on it. I have to duplicate the site on a staging environment. Need some time to do it.

Regards

The issue happens when there is a checkboxes field in the form and we published an erratum with a workaround about this now-known issue:

https://wpml.org/errata/wpforms-php-8x-issue-submitting-a-form-with-checkboxes-fields/

Could you please subscribe to the comments on that page to be advised when there is a solution published, and then I think we can close here.

Thanks

Oh. It's missing from your screenshot.

I've raised an internal ticket for our systems team to look into that.

So, disregard that. I will leave this thread as escalated, and when I see that the issue is fixed I'll notify you here.

Hello,

I have a new FATAL ERROR with version 0.3.1.
I guess it happens when wpforms try to send emails notfications with shortcodes like {field_id="31"} in email fields.
Forms are correctly stored in entries database but notifications emails are not sent.

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught TypeError: str_replace(): Argument #2 ($replace) must be of type string when argument #1 ($search) is a string in /var/www/visit/public/wp-content/plugins/wpforms/includes/emails/class-emails.php:639

That error is from the WPForms plugin itself, and there isn't anything in the call stack that relates to WPML.

Does the error happen if you disable WPML (and follow whatever steps are needed to trigger the notification that generates the error)?

On the basis of the error message alone, it looks like something for WPForms to investigate.

No, With the WPFORM WPML plugin activated, I get the PHP FATAL Error. If I deactivate the plugin everything works perfectly.
Even if you not see any trace in the error log, the plugin cause the issue.
