my problem is that (to my understanding) the RD-Mailform.php and html code in my webpage for the RD-mailform are written with older versions of PHP, and therefore will not work with the server I am hosting my webpage on, which is version 7.3.20. Ultimately my goal is to simply have my contact forms on my webpage work.
I have tried swapping the entire mailform code in dreamweaver to see if I could at least get a different error message; same error. I have tried changing a small line of code (line 11) in the rd-mailform.php
from:
$recipients = $formConfig['myemail@gmail.com']; (my personal email is filled out)
to:
$recipients = 'myemail@gmail.com';
this changed my browser error from - MF001 (Recipients are not set!) to MF004 (Please, define type of your form!)
I do not understand how to define my form type. Please advise me on what I am overlooking and or if I am not understanding quite properly what the real issue is. (I can provide the mailform.json file code if necessary as well.
Here is the rd-mailform code I am looking at:
<?php
$formConfigFile = file_get_contents("rd-mailform.config.json");
$formConfig = json_decode($formConfigFile, true);
date_default_timezone_set('Etc/UTC');
