Update Jan 27, 2011
In php my admin I exported table wp_contact_form_7 from a web-site with working Contact From 7, then import it to the database of the web-site i want the Form be there.
After installed and activated Contact From 7. Only then it started to work. It was the easiest in the end.
——-
The database table for Contact Form 7 does not exist – you probably read this topic cause you can’t install Contact Form 7 on your WP. “The database table for Contact Form 7 does not exist. You must create the table for it to work.” appears and tables is not possible to create via WP’s admin. I had the same problem. After clicking “Create tables” nothing happens.
So what I’ve done to get it working:
- I made backup, export content and drop current WP installation, then installed older WordPress version 2.9.2
- Installed Contact Form 7 making sure it works fine
- And only then I upgraded WordPress to current version (3.0.1) in my case.
Have no idea why and whether it’s most sophisticated way or not, but it DOES work.
I also won’t recommend to upgrade Contact Form 7 via your WP’s backend now unless that database problem will be solved. (Who knows, maybe Mr. Takayukister already solved that – I don’t know:)
