The "Oops! Something went wrong while submitting the form" error in a Webflow form—even with Method set to GET and reCAPTCHA turned off—usually indicates a submission issue at the form processing layer.
1. Webflow Forms Require POST Method
- Webflow’s native form submission system only works with the POST method.
- If you set the Form Block method to GET, Webflow's backend will not handle the submission, resulting in that error message.
- Method: GET is typically used for search forms or when submitting data to an external service that supports GET (e.g., prefiltering a page), not for native form submissions.
2. Check for Custom Action URL
- If your form is trying to submit data elsewhere (e.g., to a third-party server), ensure the external Action URL accepts GET data.
- If no Action attribute is set and Method is GET, Webflow attempts to redirect to the current page with query parameters—but not process the form data automatically.
3. reCAPTCHA Not the Issue
- Having reCAPTCHA off is acceptable. It only blocks spam and isn't required for form submission.
- This is likely not the source of your issue since you’ve disabled it intentionally.
4. Use Native Webflow Form Handling (POST with No Action)
- Set the method back to POST.
- Remove any custom Action URL unless needed for third-party integrations.
- Webflow treats forms with POST method and no Action as native forms and will route them through its hosted form system.
- If you're on a free Webflow plan, there's a form submission limit. If exceeded, forms throw errors.
- Go to Project Settings > Forms to check your current usage and limits.
Summary
Your form is failing because Webflow requires Method: POST to process native form submissions. Change the form method back to POST, remove any custom Action URL if not integrating externally, and Webflow’s backend should handle it as expected.
