4. Set up Email Service/SMTP

Note: Email is sent from your server or your website. If your server has email service already, kindly ignore this step. Vice versa, just set up your own SMTP service. We recommend WP Mail SMTP plugin

1. Install WP Mail SMTP

On the Admin Panel, go to Plugin > Add News to find the WP Mail SMTP plugin
Click Install and Activate it

2. Configure the WP Mail SMTP

If you use Gmail to send WordPress emails, they are more likely to be sent and won’t end up in the spam folder. We’ll show you how to connect your Gmail email address to the WP Mail SMTP plugin. This method takes a little longer to set up, but the extra security is worth it because you don’t have to share your Google account password or make an app password in your Google account.

You can use your free Gmail account to send emails through WordPress. But to make sure your email gets where it needs to go, we recommend paying for G Suite. This makes it look like your emails are coming from your own domain name, which gives them more credibility.

Go to WP Mail SMTP > Settings to enter your email name in the field
Typing your email address is sent from. For example, if you use the Gmail email provider, enter your email address in the From Email field

3. Choose the email provider to connect with

Choose your email provider from the list of mailers. Click the Google/Gmail options

You have to connect to Google API to get the Client ID and Client Secret before completing this step. Now we move to the next step to finish it.

4. Connect to Google API

Go to Google Cloud Platform. Link: https://console.cloud.google.com/

Create a New Project in Google Cloud

Enter the Project Name to create a new project

Go to the API & Services > OAuth consent screen to register it

Choose the User Type to configure it. Select the External type

Edit app information in App Name and User Support Email fields

On the App Name field, enter the Mail SMTP, for example. And the User Support Email, choose your email to send from

Enter the Developer Contact Information field, you could enter the same email which is sent to the customer

Click Save and Continue to finish the OAuth Consent Screen step

Continue to save this configuration to the Scopes and Test Users steps and back to the Dashboard

Next, you need to Publish App of new project

5. Create new credentials

On the Credentials on the left sidebar, go to the Create Credentials > OAuth Client ID

Create a new OAuth Client ID, choose the Application Type to Web Application

Enter the Name of your OAuth Client

Copy this link ( https://connect.wpmailsmtp.com/google/ )to the Authorized Redirect URLs fields

Finally, you will see a new OAuth Client is created, let’s copy Your Client ID and Your Client Secret to the WP SMTP Settings

Paste them into the Client ID and Client Secret on the WordPress, and click to Save Settings

After completing it, you need to confirm authorization to your Google account, click to authorize it

Allow the WP SMTP Plugin to access your Google Account
