# Mailhog WordPress Plugin
A simple WordPress plugin to capture emails using
[Mailhog](https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog).
## Description
This plugin integrates with the Mailhog email testing tool to capture all emails
sent from your WordPress site. Instead of actually sending the emails, they will
be captured by Mailhog for development and testing purposes.
## Installation
1. Install and run [Mailhog](https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog) on your
development machine or simply use our [Docker WordPress
Local](https://github.com/somoscuatro/docker-wordpress-local) package.
1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/mailhog` directory, or
install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress or using WP
CLI: `wp plugin activate mailhog`.
1. The plugin will automatically begin capturing emails sent from WordPress and
displaying them in the Mailhog UI.
To ensure the plugin functions properly, it's important to disable any other
email-related plugins or settings that may be in use on your WordPress site.
This includes plugins like WP Mail SMTP and Disable Emails, as they could
interfere with the Mailhog plugin's ability to capture and display emails.
## Frequently Asked Questions
