1. Download or clone this repository into your WordPress `wp-content/plugins` folder:
   ```bash
   cd wp-content/plugins
   git clone https://github.com/Sajeelsahil1/contact-form-wordpress-plugin.git

  1. Activate the plugin from WordPress Admin → Plugins.

  2. Add the shortcode to any page or post:

    [my_contact_form]

🛠️ Usage

  1. Create a new page in WordPress called Contact Us.
  2. Paste the shortcode [my_contact_form] inside the page.
  3. Visit your site and test the form.

⚠️ Notes

  • On localhost, emails may not send (WordPress wp_mail() requires SMTP or a live server).
  • To enable email sending, install an SMTP plugin (like WP Mail SMTP) and configure it with Gmail or another provider.
