[Gelöst] CRED forms throwing database error without form submission

On any page with a cred form, the following shows up in debugging:

WordPress database error: [Column 'post_content' cannot be null]
INSERT INTO `wp_posts` (`post_author`, `post_date`, `post_date_gmt`, `post_content`, `post_content_filtered`, `post_title`, `post_excerpt`, `post_status`, `post_type`, `comment_status`, `ping_status`, `post_password`, `post_name`, `to_ping`, `pinged`, `post_modified`, `post_modified_gmt`, `post_parent`, `menu_order`, `post_mime_type`, `guid`) VALUES (3, '2018-06-28 01:34:46', '0000-00-00 00:00:00', NULL, '', 'CRED Auto Draft cd19147e73dce1c52dbbde1f2ea328e2', '', 'auto-draft', 'inquiry', 'closed', 'closed', '', '', '', '', '2018-06-28 01:34:46', '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 0, 0, '', '') /* From [charmcat.net/contact/] in [/nas/content/live/charmcat/wp-content/plugins/cred-frontend-editor/library/toolset/cred/embedded/common/functions.php:96] */

It shows up once per form on every page. No submit button has been clicked. It seems like it's trying to save an empty post to the database every time a cred form loads.

Hi Ashleigh

Toolset Forms save auto-drafts (much like WP in the back-end) so that if your form includes an image field, for example, where the image gets uploaded before the form is submitted, there is a post (albeit a draft) to attach the image to.

It looks like it is trying to create draft posts without post content.

I looked at your site and see that your forms contain neither a title nor post content.

I set up a similar form on a local test site to see if it generated the log errors, but it didn't.

I may need to take a copy of your site for testing, but I think you have some custom code on your site and I would first want to confirm that there isn't a conflict responsible for this.

Do you have a staging site for some simple testing?

Can you switch theme and disable all non-Toolset plugins and then re-visit your pages containing forms to see if the log contains further errors?

If not then it should be possible to identify the source of the issue by a process of elimination, re-activating your normal theme and other plugins.

Let me know what you find so I can see how to proceed.

The login information I provided should be for the staging site. There isn't a way for me to review it, but that's what I always send you guys!

What did you find switching theme and disabling other plugins? Do you still get the debug errors?
