    Hi there!

    When I test your form, I was able to submit it without any problem.

    Did you embed the form to your website? If yes, let us know the website URL so we can check the form here.

    May I also suggest to clear your browser's cache and try to submit the form again. See if it is helping.

    We'll await your reply. Thanks!

    Hi,

    It took me a while to figure out the problem because you are modifying your form source code. I hope the following will help.

    You have added two textarea fields on your form source code which are not defined on your form in the form builder and this is causing the form to break.

    Removing the following two textarea should resolve the resolve the problem.

    I also noticed that you have modified some of the field names on your form which is not right. We do not recommend it since it will stop the form from capturing the data on these fields during the form submission.

    I have also lower down your submission counts as I can see few test submissions on your form.

    Let us know should you have further questions.

    Regards!

    @traketo 

    Thanks for your reply.

    Sorry but we do not commit or made any changes specific to user forms without any purpose. You have modified your form source code which is most probably the reason why the issue occurs. If you check your stand alone form in the form builder, it is working normally without the mentioned problem.

    The best way to resolve the problem is to add two textarea fields to your form in the form builder. Preview your form and take the names of the two textarea fields from the source code and replace the textarea names on your existing form source code. Check the following screens.

    1. Add textarea

    2. And then copy the field names of the two textarea fields and replace the one on your modified form source code.

    Hope this helps!
