Contact Form 7 Custom Post Action

Question

However it seems that using the following code does not work as the contact form is submitting with ajax back to CF7 and ignoring the post action.

add_filter('wpcf7_form_action_url', 'wpcf7_custom_form_action_url'); function wpcf7_custom_form_action_url(){ return 'www.myposthandler.com'; }

Is there a way to disable the ajax submission?

Site where this is happening: https://daintreecapital.com.au/ the newsletter subscription form in the footer is what I am trying to alter.

BTW, don't you need to included the protocol on the return value (for those that are lurking)? As in return 'example.com/posthandler' ? — Rick Hellewell

Yes, in use I put the actual handler there I just didn't want to post it on a public forum. — benikens

My point was that the return value should include the "https://" part (which actually doesn't appear in the comment, due to how this place formats links). — Rick Hellewell

As per the CF7 Documentation, you can disable AJAX form submission by placing the following code in your wp-config.php

define('WPCF7_LOAD_JS', false);
