Creating a contact form on Wordpress

Today we're going to add a contact form to our wordpress site.

Contact forms allow websites to collect information from willing visitors. Instead of posting your email address on a website, which may be an invitation to spammers to start sending you things, using a contact form keeps your email address hidden. It also allows you to specify what information you want people to share with you to better help them.

Log into your wordpress site, click WP ADMIN. Add page, then look for the button that says "Add Contact Form.

Then we'll build a form that asks visitors for their:
Name
email address
phone number
And has a box for comments or what they want to share with us.

You'll also need to specify the email address you want the results of the form sent to, as well as subject line and a few other things we'll cover in class. Those are all options in the contact form builder.

Then test it and see if you receive the auto generated email from filling in the contact form.

Possible points: 100. Due at the end of class today, 2/11/2015.
