Email and Bulletin board
-
I wish to to send emails to my personal email whenever somebody submits in the contact form. How can i do that?
Also, I want to add a discussion forum/bulletin board. How can i do that?
Are there any plugins that I can add to my site without any paid subscription?
For the paid subscription, how does it work if i have my own website domain? will it be mapped to my current wordpress site? Do I need to transfer my domain to wordpress?
Thank you!

That is what our contact form is supposed to do. What is the URL of the form that isn’t doing that?
I want to add a discussion forum/bulletin board.
Using a plugin here required a paid Business or higher plan: https://wordpress.com/support/plugins/#using-other-plugins
So, I recommend asking for plugin recommendations at https://wordpress.org/support/forum/miscellaneous/ instead.
To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/
For the paid subscription, how does it work if i have my own website domain?
It’s more a personal preference type of thing, really.
Mapping allows you to keep the domain registered with your current domain registrar and direct it to your WordPress.com site: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/map-existing-domain/
A transfer would allow to manage both your site and domain from the same place: https://wordpress.com/support/move-domain/incoming-domain-transfer/
So, basically, are you an “all of your eggs in one basket” type of person, or “not all of your eggs in one basket”? :)
