How to prevent Contact Form 7 from sending emails

Question

I am using contact form 7 to generate forms and handle form submit.

I am also using Hubspot integration to capture form submission data and therefore, do not require any email to be sent from Contact Form 7.

Is there any way to disable the email attempting to be sent?

Answer 1

If you visit the contact form 7 website: https://contactform7.com/additional-settings/, you can see there is a call you can do in order to stop emails from being sent:

You can include additional settings to each contact form by adding code snippets in the specific format into the Additional Settings field in the contact form’s edit screen.

skip_mail: on

The skip_mail setting works in the almost same manner as the demo_mode, but the skip_mail skips the mail sending only. Unlike demo_mode, skip_mail doesn’t affect other activities like storing messages with Flamingo.

Hope this helps.
