There is no "MAKE EXTERNAL" option anymore only "PUBLISH APP" is this the same or what should I do?
If Google changed their page then you can follow the publishing steps, it should have you specify during the publishing process that you want it to be external.
Thanks
You're welcome!
thank you help😀😊
You're welcome!
really thanks you save me
Happy to help!
thank you, Make sure your WordPress email and any emails you will use in the system are the same. Do exactly what is explained in the video. Successful
Glad to hear our guide could help you and yes it does affect the other emails from your site.
Hi, I did this and it worked, thank you.
What if i want to make a second form that links to another mail... can i do that?
You can have the form send to another email address if you wanted, if you have any questions, please reach out to our team using our contact form below:

Great tutorial! I set up everything as explained. However, I still wasn't getting notified. Turns out they went to my sent box because the From email was myself! I'm using Google Workspace so it's not really feasible to create a separate account just so I can receive those emails. I'd like to keep it within my domain so I don't want to use my personal email either. Any tips?
You could set up a gmail filter to take the email and assign it to a different folder but please reach out to our team using our form below for us to know more about your setup.

Thanks a lot, my plugin wp mail smtp never on, today after on & settings are easy.
Glad to hear our guide could help!
Alhamdulilah it is worked i spent 2days finding to recieve client entries for free
Glad to hear our guide was helpful!
@@wpforms but after I host my site , I can't receive client's data why?
Do you have to set up the Client ID using the Google account ? For instance I’m creating this for a client.
You would need to set it up using Google so it may be best to walk the client through how to set it up.
It worked perfectly until the last step. When I click pas the "Google hasn't verified this app" page, and click continue, it redirects me to a wordpress error page. It's a blank page that just says "Not available".
Anyone have any ideas?

How you fixed it?
During the login prompt in the 'Allow Plugin' section, do I have to login from my workspace account?
You would want to be logged in for it.
works well
Thank you!
When I save the settings a button called, "Allow plugin to send emails using your Google account," does not populate. It is not under the Client ID/Client Secret as in this video. Any thoughts on this?

Dear WPForms, it seems the google has changed something and this doesn't work , because when entering any domain with "/" it gives: "Invalid domain: must be a top private domain" :( (google workspace, but tried on personal google account as well). Any recommandations?
Please reach out to us using our contact form below and share the domain you are using for us to help troubleshoot!
wpforms.com/contact
Be sure you're not in the Javascript section.
Is a google workspace subscription required ?
Unless Google has made a very recent change, you should not need a workspace subscription
1. Does this mean the emails delivered will have to be from a gmail address? Or can you use your own domain's address?
2. Where can you see your deliverability stats, usage per/mo stats, etc?
Thanks!
1. You should be able to set up your domain address on Gmail so you can use that as your email.
2. You can see the deliverability options with WP Mail SMTP on the documentation page below:
wpmailsmtp.com/docs/how-wp-mail-smtp-verifies-email-delivery/
Hello, thanks for the video. I did all the steps correctly but at 04:58 minutes the MAKE EXTERNAL option is not enabled for me. What is the problem, please help
For me I didn't have to do this step. it was already external. So I just moved it from test to production.

Hi. Can I use WP Mail SMTP to send emails from my domain email ID?
Yes you can :)
gracias gracias gracias
You're welcome!
Went through and everything seemed to work fine, however I am now stuck with sending my emails out from my gmail account and not my website email. There is no way to change it now as the gmail is the only option to click from the SMTP settings.

What should be used where required by the organization?
That should give a list of options or no option depending on if you use workspaces or not. You would choose based on the options that you have available.
Hello... somewhere i made a mistake. I do recieve the form in my gmail. But it's not recieving any other mail. Please help. I need to chat with somebody, not premade ansewers.

Will this make Elementor forms work??????? I am confused...
It would depend on your issue, this helps with making sure the email sent from your site reach your email inbox.
completed the setup with no issues, but there is no "Email Test" option in the tab or anywhere that i can find.
Please be sure to check under the tools tab for the plugin settings.
Minutes 5:13 External type is grey out & can't select. Please help
You would want to check the scopes of your API if you added there as that is likely where it would require Google's approval before you can publish. If you didn't add anything there you may want to try creating the API again in case this is a hiccup on Google's end.
It doesn’t work for me it says access blocked 🚫 error 401 - i’ve doubled checked everything and did as instructed…
To start troubleshooting the 401 error we would recommend taking a look at the guide below from WPBeginner:
wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-the-401-error-in-wordpress-solutions/
If you mean on your SMTP connection then we would recommend reaching out to WP Mail SMTP's support and they should be able to take a look and assist!
Can this be used on multiple websites?
While possible, it is normally best practice to create new credentials for each site.
i cant change mine to in production. what could be the problem?
It would depend on if you are seeing an error or nothing at all, if you reach out to our support team using our contact form below and elaborate we may be able to help further:

Ensure your App also does not have Google in the app name
It shows theres a problem while sending the test email. How do I fix it ?
It would depend on if there is more information in the error message, you can reach out to WP Mail SMTP's support for assistance using the contact form below:

DO I NEED TO PERCHAGE FOR GETTING LICENSE KEY?
If you mean a license key for our plugin then you would need to purchase it from our site. You would not need a license key to set up SMTP for our plugin.
On the allow plugin step I do not get the 'advanced' link. So I can not grant acces to send via my account. How do I fix this, or did I do something wrong?
Please reach out to the plugin's support using the contact form below and they can take a look and assist!

Hello, I have the same problem - did you find a solution?
@@BiciA. I used another plugin for smtp
I found the solution myself - the publishing status was on "testing" and has to be on "in production"!

Thank you :)
i don't have 'make internal'' option .. what should i do?

After configuring whit gmail, email still landing in spam. I am trying to configure DNS. But cant get my emails in the inbox. Any suggestions?
We would recommend starting with the recommendations from our guide below!
wpforms.com/why-your-contact-form-emails-are-going-to-spam-how-to-fix-it/
I have the free version of SMTP, so how can I still send a test email?
You would use the same method in the free version to send an email as you would in the paid version.
Any idea why my contact page still isn't sending contact info to my gmail? I am lost.
