Asli

# Contact Form

The template includes a simple PHP mail script that allows you to gather leads from your website without using any CMS or third-party mailing tool.

# Backend setup

Open the 📄 mail.php file from the root template folder with any text editor and change the $recepient variable to your own email address. Some other variables and text templates are also safe to customize.

<?php

if ($_POST) {
  $frm_name  = 'John Doe'; // your name
  $recepient = 'me@example.com'; // your email
  $sitename  = 'Asli HTML5 Template'; // your site name
  $subject   = "New contact from \"$sitename\""; // subject template

  $name  = trim($_POST['visitor_name']);
  $email = trim($_POST['visitor_email']);
  $msg   = trim($_POST['visitor_msg']);

  $message = "
  -------------------<br><br>
  Visitor name: $name <br>
  Visitor email: $email <br><br>
  $msg
  <br><br>-------------------
  ";

  mail($recepient, $subject, $message, "From: $name <$email>" . "\r\n" . "Reply-To: $email" . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion() . "\r\n" . 'Content-type: text/html; charset="utf-8"');
}

# Frontend setup

The frontend setup (form HTML markup, success, and error messages) is described in the FormAJAX component article.

# Troubleshooting

If you are experiencing any issues with the mailing script, please contact your hosting provider for assistance and ensure that:

  • Your hosting plan supports PHP and it's enabled in your account.
  • The PHP mailing function mail() is allowed for execution.
  • Your domain is authorized to send emails.
  • Emails sent from your website are not going to the spam folder.
