[@shadow_3213]

Brilliant! Thank's a lot !!

[@tiagoduarte5423]

What if i want to use POST instead of GET? Thank you for the tutorial, it's pretty awsome!

[@VicodeMedia]

Just change the method in your React.js App from /src/components/Form.js line 33. Click here to see it: github.com/ruvictor/send-email-with-react/blob/master/src/components/Form.js#L33 In this case you will have to change your PHP file from your API server as well.

[@BrianArtea]

Thank you for the tutorial! Once I run npm run build and put the files from the build folder in the directory where do I put the php file?

[@VicodeMedia]

The php files can be on the same server but different folder or on a subdomain so you will have a separate url kinda thing. Your react form needs an API url to send the data to.

[@BrianArtea]

@@VicodeMedia in index.php what do put in where their is for url: if($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] === "localhost:3000/") Also this would go in the same folder on shared hosting: require 'vendor/autoload.php';, A video on putting the form and all to shared hosting would be awesome!

thankyou for tutorial but do we need server to make this code work?

[@VicodeMedia]

You need to send an email and you can't do that with React only. You need a server to send emails.

Great job, how about PHP and nodejs combined

[@MissAcelya]

hello, thank you for tutorial, may i ask if it is secure to upload index.php file with password is written inside ?

[@VicodeMedia]

Yes it's safe. Nobody can see your php code.

Hello thank you for tutotial ? Do you know to work in Node.js maybe ?

[@VicodeMedia]

Why are you asking, Karim? Do you want to build the server side with Node?

How to deploy it now?

[@VicodeMedia]

From the command line: "npm run build"

[@DiDarkZone]

@@VicodeMedia Yeah i did this,its isnt working. I have to remove index.php to the main folder or how? When i do 'npm run build' to the project ,it works fine.But when i remove my index.php and vendor folder to my server I got white clean screen.

[@VicodeMedia]

You should host the api on a public domain or subdomain.

[@DiDarkZone]

Maybe you know service of free domain

[@VicodeMedia]

I think GoDaddy had some hosting deals with free domain

[@tod670]

does this work for hotmail?

[@VicodeMedia]

I am not sure but you can use this libraries with different other SMTP servers.
