A: There is a tag named <%INFO%> that is replaced with all the information posted from the contact form, however you can use also optional tags for specific fields into the contact form. For doing that, click the desired field into the form builder and in the settings box for that field there is a read-only setting named "Field tag for the message (optional):". Copy & paste that tag into the contact form message text and after the form submission that tag will be replaced with the text entered in the form field. The tags have this structure (example): <%fieldname1%>, <%fieldname2%>, <%fieldname3%>, ... More info and supported tags at https://form2email.dwbooster.com/faq#q81

A: Use the tag <%itemnumber%> into the email content. That tag will be replaced by the contact form submission item number.

A: The cause is in most cases a conflict with a third party plugin or with the theme. To fix that, go to the "troubleshoot area" (located below the list of forms in the settings area) change the "Script load method" from "Classic" to "Direct". If the problem persists after that modification please contact our support service and we will give you a solution. We will appreciate any feedback to make the contact form avoid conflicts with third party plugins/themes. Q: I'm having problems with non-latin characters in the contact form. A: Use the "troubleshoot area" to change the character encoding. Try first with the UTF-8 option.

A: The free version must be deleted before installing the pro version. If you are uploading a new version via Plugins - New - Upload and a previous version is still installed, then delete the previous version first.
