You disabled the name field. I could possibly use a different filler, what do you suggest? Maybe just email.
OK, here is the solution. If you disable the Name field. it will substitute XXXX in the email from name.
You can configure the XXXX to something else on the ‘Basic Settings’ tab by configuring the “Return-path address(recommended)” setting like so.
Use a name comma email:
webmaster,you@yoursite.com
substitute ‘name’ for whatever you want XXXX to be(only used when the name field is disabled on the form).
substitute ‘you@yoursite.com’ for a real email address on your site domain.
The Return-path address is the server email address the messages are sent from. Some web hosts do not allow PHP to send email unless the Return-path email address is set. It usually must be set to a real email address on your site domain, or mail will NOT SEND! (They do this to help prevent spam.) If your form does not send any email, enter your site email address, then test the form again. This setting is required by Dreamhost, GoDaddy, many others, and is also recommended for gmail users to prevent email from going to spam folder. (it also helps SPF spam check features to work properly).
For best results the “Email To” and the “Return-path address” should be separate email addresses on the SAME DOMAIN as your web site.
I just optimized code for email from name when name field is disabled, instead of XXXX it will be the email address only.
But if you specify a name with the Return-path address, it will use that name.
You would have to download the fresh beta I just uploaded.
If you do not disable the name field it will always use the users name in the email header
Thank you! It helped. Thanks.
