    @ Jeremy

    If you are running a page cache, server or plugin, make sure you clear it. If you are using any of the shortcode options to limit the entries that are shown, make sure the entry meets the conditions of the filters.

    Hope that helps, let me know.

    Sorry, no, there is not a cluster map feature available at this time.

    You can of lost me going from category 13 to category 7, but, yes, if you exclude a category, that includes all its childrens categories too so entries in those excluded categories will not be found.

    I think the only option would be to use CSS to hide the items in the drop down you do not wish to be displayed. The problem is that if you add new categories, you’ll have to update the CSS.

    I helped another quite awhile ago do the same, I can’t remember the CSS selectors required to hide them but I do remember they were quite challenging to come up with.

    If you can share a link to you directory page with the options you want hidden, I’ll see if I can come up with the CSS to hide them.

    I know you said you have the latest version… but, could you double check? The latest is 2.4.3. I see you do not actually have it activated on any sites, so maybe you might have missed the update. The setting is a drop down, right above the Email Notification settings options.

    Is category 13 a child of one of the the excluded categories? If it is, then you would need to assign the individuals to a category which is not being excluded. Excluding a category also excludes all the children categories.

    Does that help?

    re: how to add in the vcard a button: send Mail

    Sorry, not possible without creating a custom template.

    Do not discount the “old people” so easily. Studies have shown they tend to more adapt at basic web than then “young people”.

    re: How can i change language files or subject and so on into german?

    The POT file is available in the plugin folder for translation. You would use an app called POEdit to translate this file to German. There are many, many tutorials available on the net which walk you thru translating a plugin.

    If you take the time to translate it, send me the files and I’ll include them with the plugin so you do not lose your translation work on updates.

    re: is there any spam solution like captcha or something like this?

    No captcha support. “old people” and “young people” alike universally hate this form of anti-spam. It is pretty much a guaranteed way to reduce usage of the contact form. There’s lots of studies supporting this available on the web.

    That said, Contact already has 4 non-obtrusive anti-spam measure built in. See the product page under the Features section for more details. Contact has been for sale for more than a year now with no reported issues with spam. When and if it does, then I’ll add more drastic anti-spam measure (captcha).

    Hope I have answered your questions thoroughly!

    @ JimtownSteve

    Ok, yes, it seems to be a false positive. How the text from the message box is getting HEX encoded though is a mystery. I’d have to exactly where WF checks the email message. My best guess is they might be replacing the core wp_mail() function (since it is pluggable) and running the security checks in their replacement.

    If you find this is happens with every sent message, as WF support where exactly that error is triggered and let me know that way I can help track down why the HEX encoding is occurring and offer a fix.

    Ok, the new site is now a mirror of the old site. Hope that helps!

    @ JimtownSteve

    So, this was a message “caught” being sent using the Contact form? If it is, nothing in the encodes the message in HEX. Perhaps someone copy/pasted the text from another source which already had the text HEX encoded.

    The message body is run through the core WordPress sanitize_text_field() function, it could be possible that another plugin added a filter to this function which is doing the HEX encoding.

    Have you tried sending other test messages thru Contact? Do they also get flagged by WF?
