Add a beautiful, fully functional contact form to your Ghost blog or website without paying for external services.

Not running on Ghost? This solution also works with Gatsby, Hugo, Hexo, Nuxt and any other static site generator.

• Contact Forms in Ghost

• A supported version of Node.js
• npm to manage packages

$ git clone https://github.com/styxlab/ghost-contact-form.git
$ cd ghost-contact-form
$ sh install.sh

Adapt the .env file to your needs. The following variables must be defined.

SMTP_HOST = mail.server.com
SMTP_USER = [email protected]
SMTP_PASS = strong password
ALLOW_ORIGIN = https://your-blog.com
EMAIL_FROM = [email protected]
EMAIL_TO = [email protected]

Additionally, you can add a port variable PORT = , if you want to change the default port 7000 to something else.

$ node ghost-contact-svc.js

You should see the message Listening on http://localhost:7000.

http://localhost:7000/v1/demo

• copy the work folder ghost-contact-form to your server
• use ghost-contact.service as a starting point for running ghost-contact-svc.js as a systemd daemon
• configure your web-server to map endpoint http://localhost:7000/ to a public endpoint, e.g. https://api.your-blog.com/
• Use the files in folder ghost-admin to configure your Ghost front-end
• Other front-end configuration files upon request!
