Thanks for the link.
That’s referring to “reply to” emails. That is not the issue here. The form works fine. Everything works fine.The only thing that doesn’t work is when using a gmail address (and thus gmail’s smtp settings), the gmail address used is the one that shows up as the “from” email when the messages come in. When you click “reply” it uses the correct reply to email address. But I would rather not have that gmail address used for SMTP be anywhere on those forms since it’s ONLY used for sending the forms.
Thus this appears to be an issue with using gmail with your plugin but I don’t know how to change it.
Thanks.
Ok, I understand what you are saying now.
I did try smtp settings for a private domain (not gmail) and it worked where the sent email showed up as the “from” settings.It appears that gmail smtp settings will not allow for that. Or is there a way to make that work with gmail’s settings? I am sure this is recurring issue so curious if there is a solution.
Thank you!
Great, thanks. That answers the question that I am not crazy.
Now….. how do I get it to work? 🙂 Because right now, the emails show up as being “FROM” the email used in the smtp fields, NOT in the “from” field. This is back now to the original question.
Thanks for your continued assistance.
Thank you for the reply. Again, no this isn’t the issue.
Again:
Contact form entries are received like this:
NAME OF PERSON (as per contact form) <emailaddressusedsmtp@gmail.com>
The name is great. The email part is actually the email address used for the smtp. My understanding was it would come in with whatever email address we put in the “FROM” field (that we designate), NOT what is used in the smtp settings.
Am I correct in that assumption or am I wrong??
Thanks
Hello,
Still can’t figure this issue out.My understanding is (and perhaps I am wrong) that even though we designate an email to send the forms (smtp), the FROM EMAIL ADDRESS could be used to show the forms coming in as from that email address.
The plugin notes say:
“From Email Address: The email address that will be used to send emails to your recipients”
Am I correct in stating that when the form entries are received, they should be coming in AS the email address set in the “From Email Address” field, not the actual email account used in the smtp settings?
Or am I wrong?
Because I am seeing this issue for both CF7 and Formidable – and with both, the ONLY place the email address showing up as “From” is in the SMTP settings.
My understanding was there was a way to override the “From email” address so when it shows up, it’s from whateverwewant@domainname.com (and not the email address used in the smtp settings). Can you please let me know? Thanks!!

In reply to: [PW WooCommerce Bulk Edit] Can I edit variable pricing from the backend?Products with variables have different prices:
Eg. Large is $100
Medium is $80
Small is $60Backend of WP only shows “Price” – I am hoping to see the separate prices and adjust them via backend quick edit type thing (in the columns of the admin) rather then have to fully edit each piece and dive in (saving clicks).

In reply to: [PW WooCommerce Bulk Edit] Can I edit variable pricing from the backend?Thanks! But to clarify, there are no sale prices but there are Variable prices for most products (so 3 – 8 prices per product with all the variables). Can that be tweaked from the backend w/o going in? Or can you only tweak sale / regular prices?
Thanks again!
I have nothing in that field.
I have checked another site that uses formidable forms – that too is sending the forms with the form FROM as the email used in the smtp settings.
So it seems that’s the plugin’s default. Can that “From” field be set to something else?
I haven’t because I am using this plugin and not sure if there’s a setting that would be overriding the “from” email address on sent contact forms. The only place that email address is used is to send the form through this plugin (everywhere else, including cf7, it’s another email address). So this appears to be an easy wp smtp plugin issue, not a cf7 issue.
Thanks for your email – there is no solution on that thread, but there are links out to other threads. They all seem to be about godaddy shared hosting. I don’t have that issue.
Am I missing something / the connection of what you saw?
Thanks!
Ok. If I understand correctly, for the “share button” to show up for new and existing pages, I’d need to select it within “Sharing options”. But it also means, any time that an existing page is edited and resaved, it will post automatically UNLESS you override it with the “Don’t Share This Post” tick box each time you edit it, correct? And every new PAGE will post automatically unless the “Don’t Share This Post” is ticked, correct?
I was hoping there was a way to have the share button available for both, but only automate one.
Thanks for your time!

In reply to: [Auto Publish for Google My Business] Invalid argument supplied for foreach()Thank you again!
Wow, thanks for that fix, totally worked.
I changed settings around to resave it and it populated a code.
Excellent support, 5 stars! Thanks so much!
Have you heard / found that Network Solutions doesn’t allow this? They are a huge company! Is this common knowledge that you can’t use this plugin (or this solution in general) with Network Solution email accounts? I thought perhaps their customer support person was just misinformed.
Thanks.
Had the same problem – seems to be VERY common. The fix suggested worked.
