  • Very good Forms

    Hello!I really like this plugin, but we have two problems: ajax_url undefined on frontend; js validation for inputs broken: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'settings') at e.onload (frontend.js:1:3422) I guess this issues from one point - is a defining ajax path.
