Add a contact form to any post, page or text widget. Messages will be sent to any email address you choose. As seen on wordpress.com with added i18n.
Send E-mail is a WordPress plugin that allows you to add a contact form to posts or pages by inserting a shortcode. The messages sent through the form can be directed to the post author or any specified email address, while keeping your email address hidden from the sender.
The plugin supports internationalization and includes a signature block at the end of each email. It offers configurable options such as specifying email recipients and subjects for the messages.
Best for: This plugin is suitable for users looking to add simple contact forms to their WordPress site.
What it does well
Where it falls short
Send E-mail provides basic contact form functionality, but its outdated status may limit its effectiveness on modern WordPress installations.
Paolo Melchiorre's own description of Send E-mail, lightly tidied.
Add a contact form to any post or page by inserting [contact-form] in the post. Messages will be sent to the post’s author or any email address you choose.
Or add a contact form to a text widget. Messages will be sent to the email address set in your Settings -> General admin panel or any email address you choose.
Your email address is never shown, and the sender never learns it (unless you reply to the email).
As seen on WordPress.com.
This plugin was imported from Grunion Contact Form but it adds full internationalization using localized string from WordPress core.
An e-mail signature block was appended to the end of the e-mail message containing the sender’s name, email address, website and IP and delimited from the body of the message by a single line consisting of exactly two hyphens, followed by a space, followed by the end of line (“– \n”). This signature cut line allows software to automatically mark or remove the sig block.
The [contact-form] shortcode has the following parameters:
to: A comma separated list of email addresses to which the messages will be sent.
If you leave this blank: contact forms in posts and pages will send messages to the post or page’s author; and
contact forms in text widgets will send messages to the email address set in Settings -> General.
Example: [contact-form to="you@me.com"]
Example: [contact-form to="you@me.com,me@you.com,us@them.com"]
subject: The e-mail subject of the message defaults to [{Blog Title}] {Sidebar} for text widgets
and [{Blog Title}] {Post Title} for posts and pages. Set your own default with the subject option.
Example: [contact-form subject="My Contact Form"]
show_subject: You can allow the user to edit the subject by showing a new field on the form. The
field will be populated with the default subject or the subject you have set with the previous option.
Example: [contact-form subject="My Contact Form" show_subject="yes"]
