php question…

PS: I do know how to do the back-end to send email, in fact I have it running successfully here:

http://francesblog.com/mail/mail.html

but this is outside the blog, blog is in ‘home’ dir; so I need it here: http://francesblog.com/home/mail.php

(or anywhere else inside blog (i.e., inside ‘home’ folder.. so can have form in main area then around it the same header, footer, & sidebar as other pgs in blog..)

thank you very much….

thank you very much.. that worked.. ONLY THING:

where/how do I tell it to what address to send email to??

(email add user puts in is not it, obviously…:)

I know how to do this, looked for relevant code, changed this

$to = $_REQUEST[’email’];

to

$to = <my address>;

(I mean obviously email has to be sent to me, not to email address user puts in form…;)

but I never received email (no errors when submitted form..)

other thing I don’t get: this is form tag:

<form name=”wp_contact_form” method=”post” target=””>

action is not specified.. how does it know where to submit the form???

I also don’t get why there’s db-code in there.. I don’t need any db-functionality here, just email sent to me, that’s it..

main thing, though, even though I put my own email address in there, I never received email… (when I try from my own code, from form here.. http://francesblog.com/mail/mail.html, I get email immediately…)

thank you…

I did read the readme file, as I mentioned in my last reply.. it doesn’t say at all where u put what email add you want email sent to..

in the forums indicated in the readme file (http://www.linksback.org/forums/wp-contact/18-contact-plugin.html) somebody asks precisely this question, and this is answer:

It is set to go to the default wordpress email. I will include an option to change that in the next version.

🙂

but there should be a way to change this manually, which I thought I did, but it didn’t work.. ok.. thank you…
