Style Contact Form 7 -1.1.3 Updates

A big thank you to Joomla Jones for contacting me to highlight an issue with my plugin where if you duplicate a CF7 form or you create a new form the default form is deleted.

This was the code block with the issue, this is a new WP_Query() post loop which retrieves the contact forms from the database to be displayed in the post editor.

	$args = array(
        'post_type'      => 'wpcf7_contact_form',
        'posts_per_page' => 20, 
        'post_status'    => 'publish',
	    'orderby'        => 'modified',
	    'order'          => 'DESC',
    );

    // The Query
	$contact_forms_query = new WP_Query($args);

	$contact_forms = [];

	if ($contact_forms_query->have_posts()) {
		while ($contact_forms_query->have_posts()) {
			$contact_forms_query->the_post();
			$contact_ID = get_the_ID();
			
			// Assuming 'wpcf7-messages' is the correct meta key for the serialized messages
			$messages = get_post_meta($contact_ID, '_messages', true);

			
			$success_message = is_array($messages) && isset($messages['mail_sent_ok']) ? $messages['mail_sent_ok'] : 'Default success message or empty string';

			$contact_forms[] = [
				'id' => $contact_ID,
				'title' => get_the_title(),
				'modified' => get_the_modified_date(),
				'success_message' => $success_message,
			];
		}
	}

I fixed the issue by replacing the WP_Query() function with a get_posts() function.

	$args = array(
		'post_type'      => 'wpcf7_contact_form',
		'posts_per_page' => 20,
		'post_status'    => 'publish',
		'orderby'        => 'modified',
		'order'          => 'DESC',
	);
	
	// Get posts directly
	$contact_forms_posts = get_posts($args);
	
	$contact_forms = [];
	
	foreach ($contact_forms_posts as $post) {
		$contact_ID = $post->ID;
	
		// Assuming 'wpcf7-messages' is the correct meta key for the serialized messages
		$messages = get_post_meta($contact_ID, '_messages', true);
	
		// Attempt to access the 'mail_sent_ok' message within the possibly serialized data
		$success_message = is_array($messages) && isset($messages['mail_sent_ok']) ? $messages['mail_sent_ok'] : 'Default success message or empty string';
	
		$contact_forms[] = [
			'id' => $contact_ID,
			'title' => $post->post_title,
			'modified' => $post->post_modified,
			'success_message' => $success_message,
		];
	}
