Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Can I test multi-page forms with FormStatus?
Contact Form 7 don't have a built-in feature for multi-page but generally, FormStatus is supporting multi-page. We recommend testing each form individually.
Do I need to set up anything special to test ReCaptcha v2?

Why do I see both ajax and non-ajax options?
Contact Form 7 uses ajax by default for smoother submissions. However, you can configure forms to allow non-ajax submissions if needed.
What happens if my form uses a honeypot field?
Contact Form 7 don't have built-in feature for honeypot and you need a separate plugin to add it. But generally, FormStatus is bypassing the honeypot.
