E-mail does not show radio buttons data

Yakov 06 Sep, 2015
Good afternoon,
Maybe it was discussed already, but using search I could not find it.
I use V5 and when I receive an e-mail from my site I have

Name
...
Email
...@gmail.com
Phone
...
Message
...
Enter the code

IP: XX.XXXXXX


In my form which I use for the site I have radio buttons which allow users to select different options. Unfortunately this data does not come to me when users fill out the form online. I suppose that I have to adjust e-mail template in order to get what I want, but did not find how to do that.

Help, please.Have

Hi Yakov,

Please drag a Debugger action into the On Submit event, then submit the form and post the debug - including the 'dummy emails' results here.

Note: if you are using the Easy Wizard you can turn on Debug on the Others tab in CFv4 or the Setup tab in CFv5.

Thank you very much.
I checked a link (I saw it before) and I used Debugger.

The problem is: I am not a php guy, I am Joomla user. I used another component for forms and never needed to create e-mail template in order to get data user sends from the site.

Unfortunately neither article nor Debugger provided info how to adjust e-mails which admin receive :-(

The component is just awesome but this part is maybe too complicated :-(((

The standard template has following code:

<div class="gform-all">
<table class="gform-section">
<tbody>
<tr id="ftr-name" class="gform-line-tr">
<td id="ftd-name" class="gform-line-td"><label class="gform-label-left" for="name">Name</label>
<div id="fin-name" class="gform-input-container gform-input">{name}</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id="ftr-email" class="gform-line-tr">
<td id="ftd-email" class="gform-line-td"><label class="gform-label-left" for="email">Email</label>
<div id="fin-email" class="gform-input-container gform-input">{email}</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id="ftr-phone" class="gform-line-tr">
<td id="ftd-phone" class="gform-line-td"><label class="gform-label-left" for="phone">Phone</label>
<div id="fin-phone" class="gform-input-container gform-input">{phone}</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id="ftr-message" class="gform-line-tr">
<td id="ftd-message" class="gform-line-td"><label class="gform-label-left" for="message">Message</label>
<div id="fin-message" class="gform-input-container gform-input">{message}</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id="ftr23" class="gform-line-tr">
<td id="ftd22" class="gform-line-td"><label class="gform-label-left" for="fld16">Enter the code</label>
<div id="fin21" class="gform-input-container gform-input">
<div id="fitem18" class="gform-input-container gform-subinput-container-wide">{captcha}</div>
<div id="fitem20" class="gform-input-container gform-subinput-container-wide">{captcha_img}</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id="ftr-submit6" class="gform-line-tr">
<td id="ftd-submit6" class="gform-line-td"> </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>

Maybe, friends, you can suggest what I must add so that info from radio buttons appear. Furthermore I cannot have just 1-2-3 option, previous component sent entire info which was near a button. Like if someone chose "green" it came "question 2... green..."

So, maybe you understand my concern better and can suggest something.

Appreciate your help!

Hi Yakov,

Thank you for posting that but there are no sing of any radio buttons there.

I asked for the Debugger output because that lets me see exactly what is being submitted. Please will you copy and post it here.

PS You rarely need PHP to send an email from a simple form, Please see this FAQ.

Thank you!

I found solution, it is in another area ans also it is simple enough.

When you add Email action it has Template Generation Custom by default. As result you do not get what you want :-)
The easiest way is to switch to Auto and component will generate the template which is not difficult to correct.

So, it is solved but might be helpful to other guys who are just beginning their experience :-)
