How to Disable the Email Address Suggestion

Overview

Would you like to disable the email address suggestion on your WPForms? By default, all Email form fields will automatically try and suggest the email address.

This can be extremely helpful to catch any typo errors in the email address when your visitors are completing the form, however, some of these extensions may actually be valid based on the country or service they are using.

Using a small PHP snippet, you can disable the email suggestion on all forms and we’ll show you how.
