[Pro] PHP form on Go Daddy

I see a lot of older notes in regard to this problem. I have a very simple 2 line form that needs to be hosted on Go Daddy. I followed the instruction on the PHP feedback form but when I test no luck. I also notice that the PHP file does not get created when I click on the “Use Go Daddy Mail Script” I also have the define smtp checked. Any new suggestions?

I don’t use GoDaddy, but my understanding is that when you enable the GoDaddy shortcuts, you are actually using the GogDaddy-supplied form-to-mail script, and so nothing is going to be created by the Action or uploaded to your server.

Hi John,
The ‘Use GoDaddy’s mail script’ option in the Action sets the form up to post the data to a file called ‘gdform.php’ that should be installed in your GoDaddy hosting account by default. Sometimes these files go missing (or just don’t get installed at all) in which case you will need to open a support ticket with GoDaddy and ask them to install the script on your account.

If you are having problems with GoDaddy’s support you can download the file from the link below and try and manually install it although I can’t guarantee that it will work on your account. Rather than process the form data and email it to the recipient directly the script takes the form data and queues it for another script to process the outgoing mail at a later time (I believe GoDaddy process outgoing emails every 30 minutes).
