README

 

 

There are many popular plugins already for this, why would I choose this one?

  ✅ Does not add bloatware
  ✅ Does not spam you to upgrade to a paid version
  ✅ Does not add unnecessary CSS or JavaScript
  ✅ Non-commercial

This is just a plain plugin which tells WordPress to use PHPMailer and SMTP with the provided settings.

Installation

Download the latest release, or when using composer use

composer require codeit-ninja/wordpress-smtp

Usage

Activate the plugin and go to Settings -> SMTP, provide the necessary details. Before enabling, send a test mail frist! If the test failed, make sure to resolve the problems before enabling!

If you enable with a faulty config, none of your contact forms will work any longer.

If nothing wen't wrong and you successfully recieved the test email in your inbox you can check the 'Enable SMTP' checkbox.
