CFv6 questions about e-mail action

TjerkH 18 Apr, 2018
I'm on Joomla 3.8 and Chronoforms V6.017 and trying to understand tne new e-mail action. Would appreciate some guidance as I can't find the solutions neither in the manual nor on this forum. So here are some questions:

- What is the difference between the body in the general tab and the autotemplate tab?
- Is my assumption correct that if the switch "auto add fields data" is switched on the body in the autotemplate is activated?
- Can I change the order of the fields when using the auto add feature? (For some strange reason the order is now field# 1,2,3,6,7,8,4,5)
- If the body on the general tab is empty, the e-mail isn't send?
- When inserting {AUTO_FIELDS} in the body it's returned as text in the e-mail, what do I do wrong?

Thanks in advance for some guidance,

Hi Tjerk,

+ I believe that the Body box lets you set a Custom template; the Auto Template tab lets you customise the Auto Template

+ I don't think that is correct

+ Not as far as I know

+ If there is no content in the body when the email is sent the Mailer service will block it.

+ I don't know the answer :-(
