QuinHello
I am looking to add my own custom forms to various pages on my site.
You're probably thinking 'just use a plugin', but to be honest, I don't like any of the plugins. I'm very pedantic and none of the plugins do what I want, or make it easy to do it.
So I went to program my own form, and using Exec-PHP it loaded just fine.
However, I am having some issues with the method. On the home page it loaded just fine where it was, but on /contact (for example) it does not work.
Any ideas?
<?php
// if "email" is filled out, send email
if (isset($_REQUEST['email'])) {
//send email
$name = $_REQUEST['name'] ;
$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
$phone = $_REQUEST['phone'] ;
$message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;
$subject = "Contact Mr Presenter" ;
mail("Quin452@gmail.com", "$subject",
$message, "From: " . $name);
mail($email, "$subject",
$message, "From: " . $name); ?>
<span style="font-size: 0.7em;">Your email has been sent, and a copy has been delivered to the email address provided.</span>
<?php }
//if "email" is not filled out, display the form
else { ?>
<form action="" method="post" onsubmit="return checkEmail(this)">
<label style="margin:0">Name:</label>
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="Please enter your name..." onfocus="if (this.value == 'Please enter your name...') {this.value = '';}" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Please enter your name...';}" />
<label>Email:</label>
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="Please enter your email..." onfocus="if (this.value == 'Please enter your email...') {this.value = '';}" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Please enter your email...';}" />
<label>Phone:</label>
<input type="text" name="phone" id="phone" value="Please enter your telephone number..." onfocus="if (this.value == 'Please enter your telephone number...') {this.value = '';}" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Please enter your telephone number...';}" />
<label>How Can We Help?</label>
<textarea name="message" id="message" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Please enter your message') {this.value = '';}" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Please enter your message';}" >Please enter your message</textarea>
<input type="image" name="Send" value="Send" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/send-button.png" />
</form>
<?php } ?>
