Dear Sirs
I am experiencing problems with the contact form and I really can’t find any guides in trying to solve myself.
The contact form once sent does not reach the email inbox.
Also does not send a copy to the submitter.

I looked the link on the documentation you provide but doesn’t actually explain step by step how to set it up.

Please can you help me to solve these problem?

The website is: http://www.lesleypaetz.com

Thank you….

Hi

The contact form for the Ja Fixel template is not using any special configuration except the Joomla core configuration

You need to verify your email settings in Global Configuration >> Server Tab

If you are not able to solve it send me a Private Message with a temp super user account for your backend

Hi
To add a captcha Goto System >> Global Configuration >> Site Tab >> Default Captcha * and select Captcha ReCaptcha and Save
Then go to Extensions >> Plugin Manager and filter for Captcha click on Captcha – ReCaptcha and go to Basic Options
Then go to this page http://www.google.com/recaptcha/whyrecaptcha and sign to obtain your recaptcha Key
Add the Private and Public Key in the Recaptcha plugin
Then go to Components >> Contact >> Click on Options icon tab at the top and in Form tab and select Allow Captcha on Contact

Plugin captcha on your site is turned off I could not check this problem

My colleague @pavit forward username/password of your site to me but I got this problem

<blockquote>Username and password do not match or you do not have an account yet.</blockquote>

I guess the problem on your site is related to Captcha Core, you can try to use this solution on this link here, hope it helps you to solve it.

If you still can not solve it please send me admin login detail via private message. I will help you to check it

Hi

After you made changes to the recaptcha.php file, you need to generate 2 new api keys for the recaptcha to have it working and add them in the recaptcha plugin
