The PHPMailer script that is incorporated in this fork is based on [InfinityFree](https://www.infinityfree.com/)'s [PHPMailer contact form script](https://github.com/InfinityFreeHosting/contactform). As InfinityFree's free hosting plan [does not support PHP `mail()` function](https://forum.infinityfree.com/t/sending-email-from-your-website-php-mail/49242), InfinityFree has provided their contact form script as an alternative. This BellaBuffs fork is tested with PHP 8.2 on InfinityFree's free hosting. +## Permissions + +You are free to use this BellaBuffs fork and customise it as much as you like.
