## Description

Mailto Link Form lets you build contact forms that continue in the visitor’s email
app.

Key features:
 * Create and manage multiple forms in wp-admin. * Configure To, Subject,
and Body Template per form. * Map `<select>` values into body placeholders such 
as `{{your_field_key}}`. * Embed forms anywhere with a shortcode.

This plugin does not send email directly from your server.
 It generates a `mailto:`
URL and opens the user’s default email app.

### Usage

 1. Go to Mailto Forms and create a form.
 2. Configure recipient email, subject, body template, and select fields.
 3. Place shortcode like `[mailto_link_form id="123"]` into a page.

## Screenshots

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress.

## FAQ

### Can this plugin send email directly?

No. This plugin builds a `mailto:` URL and opens the user’s default mail client.

### The email app did not open. What should I do?

Check your default email app settings in your browser/OS.
 If needed, copy the form
details and create the email manually.
