There are a few things you can do to troubleshoot your WordPress contact form not sending emails with SMTP. First, make sure your SMTP server is properly configured and running.

You can check if your SMTP server is operational by visiting the official website of your SMTP provider and entering your email address and password. If everything is working properly, you should see a message stating that your account is active and connected to the server.

If your SMTP server is operational, you can next check if your email address and password are correct. Make sure you are using the correct email address and password for your SMTP account.

You can also try to verify your email address by entering it into your email provider’s online contact form.

PRO TIP: If you are having issues with your WordPress contact form not sending email, it is important to first check your SMTP settings. Make sure that your SMTP server is properly configured and that you are using the correct port number. If you are still having issues, you may need to contact your hosting provider for further assistance.

If your email address and password are correct, you can next try to troubleshoot your WordPress contact form by checking the configuration of your contact form plugin. You can do this by entering your contact form plugin’s name and version number into the Google Search bar and clicking on the first result.

After you have downloaded and installed your contact form plugin, open the plugin’s settings page and make sure the settings for your contact form are correct.

If you are still experiencing problems with your contact form not sending emails with SMTP, you can try to disable your contact form’s email notifications. You can do this by entering your contact form’s email address and password into the plugin’s settings page and clicking on the “Notifications” tab.

After you have disabled email notifications, you can also try to contact your contact form’s plugin developer for help.
