将自己的php联系表单添加到wordpress

Question

i created a website and i'm just beginning with content management, so i installed wordpress with xampp and now adding everything that i made to the wordpress server. the only problem that came up is that i have a regular html formular with an action added that starts the php file when the user sends me the email which works offline. now i copied everything over and i don't get anything. it just sends me to another page without any content in it. so now my question is how do i tell wordpress to start the php file, when the user clicks on submit, send me the email and redirect the user to a success page.

Answer 1

You can check for the submit value and send the email:

A simple form:

<form action="<?php echo site_url(); ?>" method="POST">
    <input type="text" name="some_field">
    <input type="submit" name="sendmail" value="1">
</form>

Add this to your functions.php:

if ( isset( $_POST['sendmail'] ) ) {

    // here the code to send the mail
    wp_mail( ... );

    // redirect to a specific page
    wp_redirect( site_url('email-confirm') );
    exit;
}

Usefull links: wp_mail(), wp_redirect()
