    Hi, thanks so much for the video
    I've been having a bit of trouble with my site. I've been testing the WPForm and I haven't gotten any emails on either of the emails I set.

      You would want to set up SMTP to help ensure your emails reach your inbox. Our guide below should be helpful in setting it up:

      For what you are wanting, it sounds like you want to use columns or widgets. If you only want the widget to appear on the specific page then you can follow our guide below:
      www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-show-or-hide-widgets-on-specific-wordpress-pages/
      For setting up columns you can follow our guide below:

    Yes, I agree with Patricia Coone, clear simple and well put together. But for me, I have yet to receive the first test email from the wpforms I have create. nothing is coming through?

    • @wpbeginner
      @wpbeginner  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You would want to ensure your site is sending emails using SMTP as some email providers require that to accept emails. For how to set up SMTP you can take a look at our article below:

    Great video! You guys are so helpful! I added my yahoo and gmail addresses to forward the form to. I also have my admin "Info@domain.com" email in the settings as you instructed. The form is only going to the admin email and not the yahoo or gmail emails. They are listed first and I did put the comma between them. What could be causing this?

      You would want to ensure your site is sending emails using SMTP as some email providers require that to accept emails. For how to set up SMTP you can take a look at our article below:
