I posted the below comment on this thread 1 year 2 months ago:
I don’t know if this will work for you but I found a workaround that works for me. After a crazy amount of time trying to get the WP MAIL SMTP plugin and other similar plugins to work the way I needed, I ditched the SMTP completely. Using just the WPFORMS plugin, somehow I discovered that if I did the following things, emails from the contact form on my website get labeled in a way that works for me and also get delivered immediately in the Gmail inbox instead of going to spam with no scary warnings.
1. Through CPanel set up an email address such as “[email protected]”
2. Also, through CPanel set up a forwarder from “[email protected]” to a Gmail address
3. On the Notifications page in the WPFORMS plugin, set the “Send To Email Address” the same as the “From Address”. I did not use code; I just put in the email address: [email protected].I hope this works for you and anyone else struggling with this issue.

Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Make] Add image to header bar?I also want to add an image in the header-bar for the MAKE Theme. Can I customize the CSS in my child-theme to do this? If so, can you provide the necessary? Thanks for any help.
Kathryn, I really want to thank you for taking your time to help me so thoroughly!!
Thanks Kathryn for confirming this. I hope this thread will prevent someone else from wasting as much time as I did figuring this out.
Child theme
Thanks for you response Kathryn! I have to say that this is embarrassing, I do realize the necessity of the # in front of the color and don’t even know how I posted such a mistake. Long story short, I tried exactly what you posted, as well as many other things, but nothing worked until I did this:
#access {
background: #a53838!important;
}I know that using !important is not ideal but could find no other way to change the menu background in the Bouquet theme. I had modified everything else on the site to more of a reddish coral so the berry colored menu bar looked hideous.
I totally open to any additional suggestions you have.
