Using plugin “Accept PayPal Payments using Contact Form 7” by ZealousWeb. It appears this Paypal plugin disables the Contact Form 7 email notification.
When used, our form correctly connects to Paypal upon submitting. However, Contact Form 7 does not send an email notification, even though the submission with information is recorded in the database. When the Paypal plugin is not used (‘Use Paypal Form’ is unchecked) the notification is sent correctly, but the Paypal plugin does not connect. Also observed: before connecting to Paypal, our custom Sender’s message to the user does not display, but a different message about connecting to Paypal does. When the payment plugin is disabled, the COntact For 7 message to the user displays.
