    Hi All

    My site is at http://www.thewakeplace.com
    When someone gets in touch with me through the contact form, the email address that the email comes from is always admin@thewakeplace.com rather than the users email address?

    Why is this? It never used to do it? Any Ideas?

    Thanks!

    looks like you are using Contact Form 7
    admin - tools - contact form 7
    configure it there to have correct address

    How do i tell it to use the email address that the user types in rather than my own email address?

    The contact form hasn't changed in months, its only recently started doing this?

    thanks!

    well that is strange

    [email* your-email]

    yup, it has that exactly.

    It has actually only started doing it since i installed my forum. I tried logging out of WP to see if the Forum was somehow effecting the messages - no luck.

    I've just installed another contact form for the moment to deal with this short term while i try to figure it out. The new form is working perfectly with the correct details.

    weird!
