Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about VS Contact Form

The plugin will use the website language, set in Settings > General. If translations are not available in the selected language, English will be used.

Yes, but do not set custom labels for Name, Email, Subject, etc with the label attributes or via the settings page. Use a multilingual plugin instead. If each language has its own form, than each form can have its own label attributes.

By default form submissions will be send to the email address set in Settings > General. You can change this via the settings page or by using an attribute.

I have used a default "From" email header to avoid form submissions being marked as spam. Best practice is using a "From" email header (an email address) that ends with your website domain. The default "From" email header starts with "wordpress" and ends with your website domain. You can change this by using an attribute. Your reply to sender will use another email header, called "Reply-To", which is the email address that sender has filled in.

The plugin uses minimal styling and therefore also depends on the styling of your theme.

But you can display a form by using the block or the shortcode and a form by using the widget.

If you want extra fields you should use another contact form plugin, such as WPForms.

An error message is displayed if plugin was unable to send form. Or nothing seems to happen after pressing submit. Install an SMTP plugin and try again If you are using an SMTP plugin, check the settings page of that plugin for mistakes With most SMTP plugins you can test the mail function by sending a test mail Or test the mail function with the Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin Disable caching and try again Check the built-in anti-spam features, by activating debugging via the settings page Sometimes form submission fails because your hosting provider has disabled the PHP mail() function. Sending via SMTP will solve this. For more info about SMTP check the "SMTP" section above. For more info about caching check the "Cache" section above.

Check the junk/spam folder of your mailbox If you are using attributes, check your attributes for mistakes Check the settings page for disabled email sending or a wrong email address Install an SMTP plugin and try again If you are using an SMTP plugin, check the settings page of that plugin for mistakes With most SMTP plugins you can test the mail function by sending a test mail Or test the mail function with the Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin For more info about SMTP check the "SMTP" section above.

Of course, the default WordPress validating, sanitizing and escaping functions are included. Also included are a sum field, hidden honeypot fields and a hidden time trap. And you can limit the number of links and email addresses that is allowed in Message field.
