In the WordPress theme I have, when a contact form is completed a message is written on the page but not at the location I want it to be. But when changing the location of the message in the PHP code, the paragraph that goes with the contact form (written in an article) doesn't show up anymore. In fact, I think that the have_posts method returns false and so the php_content method isn't called.
Here is the original code :
<div id="main" class="site-main container_16">
<div class="inner">
<div id="primary" class="grid_11 suffix_1">
<?php if ( have_posts() ) while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
<?php if(isset($emailSent) && $emailSent == true) { ?>
<div class="alert green">
<?php _e( 'Thanks, your email was sent successfully.', 'wplook' ); ?>
</div>
<?php } else { ?>
<?php if(isset($hasError) ) { ?>
<p class="error"><?php _e( 'Sorry, an error occured.', 'wplook' ); ?><p>
<?php } ?>
<form action="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" id="contact-form" method="post"> ...
And here is how I want it to be :
<div id="main" class="site-main container_16">
<div class="inner">
<div id="primary" class="grid_11 suffix_1">
<?php if(isset($emailSent) && $emailSent == true) { ?>
<div class="alert green">
<?php _e( 'Thanks, your email was sent successfully.', 'wplook' ); ?>
</div>
<?php } else { ?>
<?php if(isset($hasError) ) { ?>
<p class="error"><?php _e( 'Sorry, an error occured.', 'wplook' ); ?><p>
<?php } ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
<form action="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" id="contact-form" method="post">...
As you can see, I only changed the location of the confirmation message. But in the second way, the condition with the have_posts does not seem to be true since the text I wrote in the article does not show up.
Can someone help me with this issue please ?
Thanks a lot !

the_permalinkshould be called inside of the loop, but yours is happening outside. On the page that renders the form, what is the value of the form's action attribute? - maiorano84var_dump($wp_query);and add the result to the question (or a link to some code hosting site) - Tomás Cot
