There is simply a function call that PHP can use to send mail that is built into WordPress (wp_mail()) and that is what we use to send email. It in turn just uses PHP sendmail. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/unable-to-make-gravity-work#post-14534 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 20:12:42 +0000 vnagy 14534@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello, thank you for replying so quickly. I'll check it out . Is there some settings in WordPress were my e-mail options that might not be changed?<br /> Regards<br /> Vic </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/unable-to-make-gravity-work#post-14530 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 19:55:59 +0000 Carl Hancock 14530@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This could be a variety of things, all of which unrelated to Gravity Forms itself. Gravity Forms is sending the email. It's a simple function call using the built in wp_mail() function.</p> <p>First check to make sure your Notifications are setup properly. </p> <p>Next submit a form and test the functionality. Login to your GMail account and make sure you check your Spam box to make sure the email was not flagged as spam.</p> <p>If you didn't receive the email and it was not in your Spam box then it is possible that you may need to configure your WordPress site to send email via SMTP which is a more reliable way of sending email. You would need to install this WordPress plugin:</p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/</a></p> <p>In order to configure the SMTP plugin you would need to get the proper SMTP settings from your web host.</p> <p>If none of the above works then send us a WordPress admin login for your site via our Contact Us form and reference this post and we can take a look at your setup and see what is going on. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/unable-to-make-gravity-work#post-14528 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 19:47:56 +0000 vnagy 14528@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have a form on my site at <a href="http://www.Mississaugahandyman.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.Mississaugahandyman.com</a>. I have filled out the backend to send e-mails to me at <a href="mailto:expertpainter@Gmail.com">expertpainter@Gmail.com</a>.<br /> I completely fill out the form and then send, there is a notification saying that I will get back to them shortly so I presume the program thinks it's sending e-mail.<br /> But I get nothing at this e-mail. </p>
