Is there a way to activate “Send to a friend” functionality again? (I dont live in EU & have no EU customers).

Would be great to have this feature again.

Thanks, Marc

Hello,

no, it has been completely removed, and is replaced in V2 with the options to use a variety of other 3rd party plugins in place of it.

PS: it does not matter if you live in the EU or not, or that you have no EU users. As soon someone enters a friend’s email address in the form, and that friend is a EU resident, you are in breach of the GDPR rules.
And you can be held responsible for spammers using your form.
I doubt you ever will be held responsible, but that is another matter.

PS2: I am not a GDPR legal expert, so the above is not legal advice 🙂

I know we are to use a third party plugin for this and I seem to remember somebody posting the instructions on how to do this with Ninja Forms. Is there a link to those instructions somewhere?
Update! The how to is here: https://wpgeodirectory.com/geodirectory-v2-ninja-forms/

Thanks justmark.
Guust: ok I will build this feature with Ninja Forms and wait until someone from EU is suing me =)
