Your contact form is the lifeline between you and your customers, so making sure it actually lands in your inbox is critical! In this quick segment, we take a look at customizing your site's contact form using WPForms and tackle the common issue of WordPress emails failing to send.
First, I'll show you how to easily modify your layout by dragging and dropping new fields—like paragraph text boxes—and setting them as required. Then, we dive into the core notification settings to ensure submissions route directly to your administrator email. Finally, I explain why these forms often get blocked by default server setups and why you need an SMTP plugin to guarantee delivery. I've linked a complete, free SMTP walkthrough in the description to make sure you never miss a customer inquiry!
