My contact form is producing the error ‘Failed to send message’. I think this happened since I updated WordPress. Are you aware of this problem? Please advise me how to investigate it as this is potentially very damaging for my business. Thank you.

See the FAQ.

After submitting the form, I get an error message stating “Failed to send your message”. What is wrong?

Thanks. I have contacted my hosting provider who advised me to set up Configure SMTP and send messages through Gmail. Now I am not getting the error message but when I try to send via the contact form I just get the endless turning arrow. The FAQ says to try disabling other plugins, but this does not help.

Update to the above – the messages are actually getting sent but the arrow keeps turning.

Update – my web hosting provider has managed to set up a workaround using smtp via gmail.
