Do you get any errors if so what does the error log say? If it still doesn't work then there may be a issue on your server which you should first contact and ask of any known issues.

Re: Do not receive form data

I had this working a couple years ago. Do not recall doing anything special with web host.
Diff computer now and do not have that file.

Today, everything seemed to work and did not get any errors, and after "send" I would see the Thank you page.
.... but would not receive any data at the two email locations I tried ( checked both spam and trash )

After reviewing the FAQ link, I tried advanced mail engine smpt stuff but not sure if I did correctly.
After "send" I no longer received the Thank you page nor receive the data.

Will try to contact web host to see if PHP is enabled i guess.

Thanks

Only your webhost can tell you what the correct SMTP settings are.

There is no way for me to help you if I do not know what the settings should be or what the error is.

The link does not seem to be related to PHP email.

What you need to ask your webhost is
"Can I sent email via PHP and what the exact (SMTP) settings?"

WWB supports all common settings; however, the specific configurations required depend on your web host.
Unfortunately, I cannot determine the exact settings you will need. Only your webhost can give you the correct configuration.

Thanks for that explanation .... webhost provided smtp settings and it is working now.

Next is to try and add a captcha ... which is the easiest to setup or do you advise on a certain type ?

Yes ... been looking at that. With no experience, have no idea what to choose.

Gives a whole bunch of choices .... but gives no instructions on how to put on webpage
does it go in form
below form
how are they tied together

many of the online tutorials are the same whole bunch of options
but no tutorials on how to install and actually use them

using default as an example when i click to input the letters/numbers
a large green button marked "undefined" covers the original box holding letters/numbers

To use captcha, you will need to make it part of the form.
This is documented in the help.

Captchas only work online, so you cannot test it locally.

Just drag & drop the captcha object to the form.
This works the same as with other form elements.

You can access the help via the help menu or F1.

I'm sorry, but I need (much more) details. See also the "very important note' on the FAQ.

What are your settings ?
Did you set a success and error page?
Did you publish all files?

The software has thousands of options and millions of possible combinations.
Without knowing what you have done, it will be very difficult to help you.
Can you please provide more details?

You have used an old (deprecated) captcha extension.

Please use the the built-in captcha instead.
https://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/forms_antispam.html

Also, it does not look like you have published all pages.

The URLs do not work:
