Adding a Contact Form to your Blog

Mar24 in Blogging by admin

If you run a blog then you will no doubt want to make it possible for your visitors to be able to contact you, to comment on your blog. I have just added this function to my site, and will talk you through how I went about it.

First of all I had to find which contact form plugin was most suitable for my website, as bloggers you will know that there are many plugins that do the same job, so I had to weed through them to find the most suitable for my site.

Here is a list of 3 popular contact form plugins:

I decided to go for 'Contact Form ][' as I felt it would work well on my site, and it was easy to install.

Once you have downloaded the plugin, upload it to your 'Plugins' directory and activate it in the Plugins section of the dashboard.

Once activated you should find a sub-section in your 'Options' section of the dashboard, called 'Contact Form ][', from here you can change the settings of your contact form.

To add the form to your blog simply create a new page, with a title of your choice, I called mine 'Contact Form' then add the code into the main section, as shown on the instructions.

Publish your page and you should have something that looks like my Contact Form.If you have any problems, contact me using my form, and I will try and help, or alternatively you can post a comment below.
