Hi
This is my first post and I’m french so I apologize in advance for my English !
My site : https://joffreysomon-portfolio.netlify.app/
I’ve two problems. First, I can’t deploy from a git repo. Yes I add the codes lines necessary to make it works :
In the HTML file
and
<form name="contact" method="post" data-netlify="true" onSubmit="submit" className="form">
<input type="hidden" name="form-name" value="contact" />
In the file containing the form.
Then, I deployed manually from the build and it worked !!!
BUT
When I click on the submit button of the app, I’ve a 404 error…
I searched on the forum but I’ve no results…
TY in advance !

Hi Melvin,
Thanks for your quick answer !
No I can’t read something helping me…
For remind : My API is build with React. I don’t know if I have to add something in the router (App.js).
Hope you can help me !

Hi @Passemoildev ,
Thank you for following-up. Checking the deploy logs I do see that the form “contact” is being detected. I went to https://joffreysomon-portfolio.netlify.app/Contact and was able to submit on the contact form. I’m seeing a “thank you” page:
and I’m unable to reproduce the 404 error.
Could you share the steps to reproduce the issue?
