I’m aware that the team is on it, however this also has affected the google sheets integration. Thankfully, you guys have backed me up using your own server download excel file from the dashboard. I hope this issue gets fixed soon and i really hope it does not happen again. My Client gets mailing forms on a daily basis and this is not good for him. Thank you and keep up the good work team!

Dear folks, thank you for your comments and for the heads-up!

@Lesan, @Hugh my apologies for such a long wait, it seems we have overlooked this thread for some reason, I’m so sorry 😓

Unfortunately, one of our Forms widgets was under DDoS attack that partly affected the functionality of the Forms widgets. This has led to the emails not coming through in time and information not registering in Google Sheets.

The good news is that our developers were able to neutralize the issue and block the offending widget, so you should receive all the submissions that were sent through your forms during the downtime. However, please note that it might take some time for the emails to start coming through.

I do believe your widgets are back to normal now, but I’ll be very happy to assist you here if anything still goes wrong.

We are terribly sorry for all the trouble 🙏🏻

Hello guys, thank you for your patience!

I’m happy to say that the issue is fixed, so all the widgets should be working fine now.

Could you please check and let me know the result?

- Issue description:  
Contact forms are still not working correctly. We were told the issue was fixed but we still haven’t seen any form submissions come through for either of our websites in a timely manner. If they do, it’s about 24 hours later or more until we receive an email.

We are downloading the .csv files every hour to make up for the problematic forms but we would like to see this fixed asap.

Thank you.

Hi @Wayan!

Our Contact Form app had been experiencing temporary difficulties indeed. I totally understand how you feel and I am terribly sorry about this frustrating situation 😔

Our devs fixed the issue, so everything should be working fine now. All missing submissions will be successfully delivered in a few hours.

Please check your widget and let me know how it works now.

Thank you for your patience and understanding 🙏

Hi there and welcome to the Community @Clementine_Hugon 👋

I deeply apologize about the inconvenience!

I see that my colleague Serj is already working on your request. He has forwarded it to our devs and will keep you updated 🙂

@Clementine_Hugon We’ve double-checked your widget and found that you’ve added mail tags ([nom-prénom] | Tél : [numéro-de-téléphone] | [email]) to the Sender field, which prevented the submissions from being delivered.

We’ve moved these tags to the Message field and now everything is working fine:

![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/elfsight/original/3X/3/5/3525b7503c9e71bf1ef38048ff58238b14295cbe.png)

Could you please check your widget and let me know how it works?

As for the mail tags in the Sender field, we already have such a request in the Wishlist, and you can keep an eye on it in this thread - [Sender Name to replace field [field-id] values](https://community.elfsight.com/t/sender-name-to-replace-field-field-id-values/12756)
