Default Any Wordpress Gurus?

I've set up a Wordpress website, using Photocrati themes (www.york-wedding-photography.co.uk).

I've tried several contact form plug-ins, which either hang, or give an error referring to Admin.

I've tried my host supplier (Pixel), which have hada look, and say it's not an account restriction (they use similar plug ins themselves as well), and I've asked for help on the Photocrati forum, and been referred to Pixel.

As I say, I've tried a few of the top rated ones, and I've deactivated other plugins in case there was a clash, and I have to similar sites, with the same issue on both.

Any other ideas?

do you know what outgoing mail server the form is trying to use?

maybe it's set to use localhost and that wont work.

Who hosts the site? Do you have FTP access so that can you upload other files to test your installation?

can you create a new file called test.php

in it put the following:

<?php mail("your@email.address","subject - our test","test message");?>

Put your email address in place of "your@email.address" above

Then save upload it to your site and go to www.yourdomain.com/test.php

If you get an email you know your host allows sending from your site...
Need to know that first really.
