Wagtail Contact form

[Kristian Arve]

I am trying to create a contact page with an email form. The documentation has not helped me a lot (http://docs.wagtail.io/en/v1.4.3/reference/contrib/forms.html).

Is there a wagtail demo site where I can have a look how it's done? Unfortunately there's no contact form in the official demo:

I didn't realize that setting up forms was that easy! So I have the form set up and everything working but I don't get any emails. I guess I have to set up the SMTP settings? But where?

Thanks for the help!

Hi Kristian,

If you are using the 'dev.py' settings the EMAIL_BACKEND is set to the console, you can see an representation of the email message in the terminal that you ran the 'runserver' command.

You are right about needing to configure the SMTP settings and the Django documentation [1] can help you here.

Thanks a lot for the help. I've got it working now. This page shows what to put in the settings file: https://sendgrid.com/docs/Integrate/Frameworks/django.html

Hey Kristen, may I ask where you put the sendmail() code? Was it in the class for the contact form?

Thanks
