Hi guys,
I have this single page website http://yourexecutivechair.com
I got a problem withe its contact form, and I read the following article:
https://infinityfree.net/support/how-to-send-email-with-gmail-smtp/
I applied all the steps: I uploaded PHPMailer file to my htdocs folder. I let less secure apps use my Gmail account ( [email protected]) which is the same account I use for receiving messages from the website. I also created the php script to use PHPMailer. I am attaching this script to this post.
I think the problem is with the php I created. Could you please help me to fix it?
Many Thanks.
Hananneh
