Why did my form submissions drop in Statamic?

The Statamic help pages give 3 common reasons. The first to rule out: Submissions are limited per IP address to guard against abuse, so many entries from one network in a short time can be turned away.

What causes it?

  1. Submissions are limited per IP address to guard against abuse, so many entries from one network in a short time can be turned away.

    In the Statamic help: Form submissions are rate limited by IP address to help protect against abuse. Forms, read 2026-11-12.

  2. There is a default cap on submissions per minute across all of a site's forms, so a sudden burst can be partly refused.

    In the Statamic help: allows 10 submissions per minute across all forms Forms, read 2026-11-12.

  3. Submissions are checked against the form's validation rules, so a stricter rule can stop some people from getting through.

    In the Statamic help: validation rules to be used on form submission Forms, read 2026-11-12.

How do I check it myself?

  1. Export the submissions with the fields you need, so you can count entries by date yourself.

    In the Statamic help: When exporting, you can choose which fields to include as columns, using the checkboxes in the export modal. Forms, read 2026-11-12.

  2. Look through each form's collected responses to see when the last entries arrived and whether one form went quiet.

    In the Statamic help: In the Forms area of the control panel you can explore the collected responses Forms, read 2026-11-12.

How does Statamic work with Feder?

  • Connect Statamic to Feder and it joins your Interest apps.
  • When you connect Statamic, Feder checks the connection straight away and shows Connected only when that check passes. If a reading cannot be taken later, Feder shows it as not read, never as zero.

Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.

See whether you can trust the numbers in Statamic, one of your Interest apps. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in Statamic.

Where do these answers come from?
