Hi,

I have a php contact form so user can input name, e-mail, website, subject and message. I installed on my droplet php and Postfix. What else do I need or do I need to configure something? My Droplet is Ubuntu 14.04.

I really don’t know how to setup this thing so it works.

Here is the php code:

<?php
    
    if(isset($_POST['email'])) {
        
        $time = time();     // get unix timestamp

        # SETTINGS
        // email to send to
        $email_to = "ENTER EMAIL HERE";                 

        // subject prefix with unix timestamp, each message will have unique id [#]: "CHEMPO Contact Form [#1234567890]- Bla bla"
        $subject_prefix = 'Chempo.com Contact Form [#'.$time.']- ';
    
        function died($error) {

            echo "We are very sorry, but there were error(s) found with the form you submitted. ";

            echo "These errors appear below.<br /><br />";

            echo $error."<br /><br />";

            echo "Please go back and fix these errors.<br /><br />";

            die();

        }
        // validation expected data exists

        if(!isset($_POST['sender_name']) ||

            !isset($_POST['email']) ||

            !isset($_POST['website']) ||

            !isset($_POST['email_subject']) ||

            !isset($_POST['comments'])) {

            died('We are sorry, but there appears to be a problem with the form you submitted.');      
        }

        $sender_name    =   $_POST['sender_name'];     #$sender_name = mysql_real_escape_string($sender_name); 
        $email_from     =   $_POST['email'];    
        $website        =   $_POST['website']; // not required    
        $email_subject  =   $_POST['email_subject']; 
        $comments       =   $_POST['comments'];

        $error_message = "";

        $email_exp = '/^[A-Za-z0-9._%-]+@[A-Za-z0-9.-]+\.[A-Za-z]{2,4}$/';

        if(!preg_match($email_exp,$email_from)) {

          $error_message .= '<span style="color:#e50000;">The Email Address you entered does not appear to be valid.</span><br />';

        }

          $string_exp = "/^[A-Za-z .'-]+$/";

        if(!preg_match($string_exp,$sender_name)) {

          $error_message .= '<span style="color:#e50000;">The Name you entered does not appear to be valid.</span><br />';

        }

        if(strlen($email_subject) < 2) {

          $error_message .= '<span style="color:#e50000;">The Subject you entered do not appear to be valid.</span><br />';

        }

        if(strlen($comments) < 2) {

          $error_message .= '<span style="color:#e50000;">The Message you entered do not appear to be valid.</span><br />';

        }

        if(strlen($error_message) > 0) {

          died($error_message);

        }

        $email_message = "Form details below.\n\n";

        function clean_string($string) {

          $bad = array("content-type","bcc:","to:","cc:","href");

          return str_replace($bad,"",$string);

        }


        $email_message .= "Name: ".clean_string($sender_name)."\n";

        $email_message .= "Email: ".clean_string($email_from)."\n";

        $email_message .= "Website: ".clean_string($website)."\n";

        $email_message .= "Subject: ".clean_string($email_subject)."\n";

        $email_message .= "Message: ".clean_string($comments)."\n";



        $email_subject = clean_string($email_subject);
        $email_subject = $subject_prefix.$email_subject;




        // create email headers

        $headers = 'From: '.$email_from."\r\n".

        'Reply-To: '.$email_from."\r\n" .

        'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();

        @mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers); 

        echo '<span style="color:#00d614;">Thank you for contacting me. I will be in touch with You very soon. Please use navigation bar above to continue browsing my site.</span>';
 
    }

    else{   
    ?>

Thanks in advance.
