Contact form sends email but without user inputs - php

Question

This bootstrap using html/php contact form sends me an email just fine, but without any of the users input information!
The email I received looks empty like this:
Name:
Email:
Subject:
Message:
The html for the form is:
<section id="partner">
<div class="container">
<div class="center wow fadeInDown">
<h2><br>Contact</h2>
<p class="lead">Send a general enquiry here or order your service here.</p>
</div>
<div class="row contact-wrap">
<div class="status alert alert-success" style="display: none"></div>
<form id="main-contact-form" class="contact-form" name="contact-form" method="post" action="sendemail.php">
<div class="col-sm-5 col-sm-offset-1">
<div class="form-group">
<label>Name *</label>
<input type="text" name="name" class="form-control" required="required">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Email *</label>
<input type="email" name="email" class="form-control" required="required">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Phone</label>
<input type="number" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Company Name</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-5">
<div class="form-group">
<label>Subject *</label>
<input type="text" name="subject" class="form-control" required="required">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Message *</label>
<textarea name="message" id="message" required="required" class="form-control" rows="8"></textarea>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<button type="submit" name="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg" required="required">Submit Message</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div><!--/.row-->
</div><!--/.container-->
</section><!--/#contact-page-->
The PHP for the form looks like this:
<?php
header('Content-type: application/json');
$status = array(
'type'=>'success',
'message'=>'Thank you for contact us. As early as possible we will contact you '
);
$name = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['name']));
$email = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['email']));
$subject = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['subject']));
$message = #trim(stripslashes($_POST['message']));
$email_from = $email;
$email_to = 'heerschapnikki#gmail.com';//replace with your email
$body = 'Name: ' . $name . "\n\n" . 'Email: ' . $email . "\n\n" . 'Subject: ' . $subject . "\n\n" . 'Message: ' . $message;
$success = #mail($email_to, $subject, $body, 'From: <'.$email_from.'>');
echo json_encode($status);
die;
Why isn't it working properly? The message "thank you for contacting us" pops up fine and the email sends through, but non of the users information comes through.

Answer 1

Try to print the values you are sending. So use this:
var_dump( $_POST['name'] );
var_dump( $_POST['email'] );
etc...
Doing this, you will be able to see wether your fields are even posted correctly.

Answer 2

the fields have no id param. in the post you get the "id" nor the "name"
<label>Name *</label>
<input type="text" id="name" class="form-control" required="required">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Email *</label>
<input type="email" id="email" class="form-control" required="required">
