Form Implementation

  There is a form function you can call in which you pass it the key of your form:
  <?=form('my_form')?>
  
  That function is simply just a wrapper around:
  $CI =& get_instance(); echo $CI->fuel->forms->get('my_form')->render();

  I got the form to show up, but when I test it I get an error:
  
  Fatal error: Call to a member function errors() on a non-object in /var/www/vhosts/osheaprint.com/httpdocs/fuel/modules/forms/controllers/Forms.php on line 60

  I was able to get it to display this message:
  
  
  Unable to send email using PHP mail(). Your server might not be configured to send mail using this method.

  So it sounds like you were able to get the form to display but upon submission of the form you are getting the PHP mail error correct? If so, perhaps try this:

  I have this for the code for my email.php page. The mail is setup through gsuite.

  And this is the output when the form is sent - it shows up at the bottom of the page after the user presses send:

  Are you directly editing the core library Email.php file? If so, I'd recommend either extending it with a fuel/application/libraries/MY_Email.php or create a fuel/application/libraries/email.php file.
  
  If you are seeing the email debugging message, it means the email wasn't sent (see line 1154 of fuel/modules/forms/library/Fuel_forms.php). You may have some issues with your SMTP settings. Also, if you want, I would test your mail outside of FUEL and using CodeIgniter's email library (which is what the Form module is using):

  This issue with forms only happens when I point the MX records to Google Mail using g-suite. If I don't point the MX records away from the server then the forms work fine.
