    Thanks for the tutorial Jackson. I am liking the circle webcam video (as opposed to the rectangles I get using Camtasia). What software are you using to record your screencasts? Looks cool.

    Hi Jakson.

    Nice concise tutorial mate and one of the very few youtubers I've bothered subscribing to.

    I have installed WordPress to a "local server" and building a Sydney theme site as a complete newbie.

    Quick question re contact form 7.

    In trying to send a test email, a red box appears stating that "there was an error in sending the message and to try again later"
     
    Contact page looks fine and clicking on the mail tab, I see that both the "to" and "from" fields contain the same email address – So, is my problem that I'm using a local server or that both "to" and "from" fields contain the same email address?

    Cheers

    Kevin

    Hi Jackson, absolutely great tutorial: very professionally delivered, and thanks a stack. However, there seems to be something else which is blocking me and, not being all that tech-savvy myself I do not know what it is. Even by following every very-clearly-given instruction of yours, my form still does not deliver to the address I need. Are you able to help please? Errol.

    am enjoying your various tutorials. I am stuck with a basic issue on Contact Form 7. On the "Mail" section, I have added the email which receives enquiries. It works. But, the sender's email address is not added. In its place is the email address I have added in the "From" section below, which asks me to add an email with the same domain as my own (this doesnt seem to make sense), so the emails I receive look like they have come from my own domain/email. What should I type into the "From" box to ensure I see the senders email ie. the one they have typed into the Contact form? Thanks. Chris

    Great clear video ! The problem I have is nobody can contact me using the contact 7 form- message is sent but I don't receive readers messages! I'm so confused ? Does bluehost or siteground receive these messages

    Thanks for the tutorial. This is useful. I installed the plugin and created a form. The Tel field which is meant to accept phone numbers renders very differently than other fields like Name and Email. Would be great if you could shed some light on it. TIA!
