   I have done the steps only to find out that the color of the field is the same as my theme? and the fields are invisible. I tried the edit button of the plugin, but I get a Error 406 so can’t edit the plugin. Is there a way to change the color of the field boxes to make them visible ?

   Hmmm. Then you really shouldn’t be having issues? because this plugin has a great history of working well. Rather than continue to fight with it, I think if I were you I’d see if the lesser known plugin “fast and secure contact form” might get you up and running. If it doesn’t, then I would question if the email server on your host is properly configured.

   Hi Kim, Thanks a lot for your nice reply. Actually I didn’t install any other plugin in my site mtiexim[dot]com. It could be related to sql database/ hosting which I can’t understand? since same plugin I have installed for another site shuva[dot]tk and working fine! Please suggest.

    This form is not designed to handle that (since it’s short code based) unless your homepage is being created by a regular post or page being set as the home page. If your home page is a unique template, you? need to find a plugin that allows you to embed the form via php code.

    What happens if I want to copy and paste the short code for the form and paste it into my HTML on? my home page (since I want the contact on the home page). How would I go about doing that?

    Assuming it’s not working in more than one browser (tests for a browser caching issue) then you likely have another plugin conflicting. Run through a basic WP troubleshoot to? sort out which one is making the trouble.

    It defaults to the email address for your blog? (in settings) which may not be your main one, double check and change that if thats the issue
