Form actions, Wordpress plugin development

KDMIreland

Hi All,

Im trying to get into the custom Wordpress Plugin development, Im putting together a demo plugin at the moment

I have some basic knowledge of PHP

I created a HTML form "form.php" and I want to pass the data of this into "sendmail.php'

How would I go about this? In my form I have <form method="POST" action="sendmail.php">

But each time the form is submitted the page tries to redirect and Wordpress gives me the "Page Not Found" error

If you look at browser headers, what exact URL the form is submitted to?

I'm 99.999% sure you experience this issue because you are actually trying to post form to URL like yourdomain.com/sendmail.php while the actual URL might be like yourdomain.com/your_plugin_name/sendmail.php

Thanks phpmillion

I took your advise, But instead of using the domain name I used the following:

/wp-content/plugins/test-plugin/sendmail.php

And that works perfectly!

Thanks
