Hi,

I've tried the form some time now and run into the following problem:
I've created a form which users can use after registration (the form is in the user-menu). In the form I use the first- and lastname of the logged in user by integration the form with the Jos_comprofiler DB (Community Builder) so the form contains automatically "Dear firstname lastname..." So far so good! But when I click on "submit" no e-mail is send and I get a blank page saying "You are not allowed to access this URL".
I've set the debug to "ON" and validation/anti-spam to "OFF"(as mentioned in FAQ 36) but still no luck.
As a test I've restored your default 'submitcontent-form', changed the e-mail address, put this form also in the user-menu , and this form is working very well!!! Both e-mail with content and article stored in jos_contnt do work.
Do you have any idea where to go frome here? Are the fieldnames form CB causing an error?

Thanks,
Robin

Hi Robin,

you can search the forums for the reason of this error and some suggested solutions, quickly the most popular mistakes which cause this are : #1- you have any form tag in your code or you are not using V0.8 of the plugin if you are having the form inside article!

Cheers

Hi Max,

Thanks for the info. To make clear my enviroment: I'm using V3.0 stable and the direct menu-component. So the form is not being called by the bot in a article.
I found in the forum various postings also related to caching. I disabled caching, emptied the cache and moved the form to the front-end where no login was required. Still bad luck.
I just made a very simple form with only the code: <input type="submit"> , and set debug to "ON". This form worked!! So I think the error is somewhere in the formcode!!
I keep you posted ;-)

Regards,
Robin

Hi max,

I've found the problem! My form-code ended with "</form>" while it didn't start with "<form>". Anyway, I removed the code, tried it all again, even with the CB-variables and saving it in a DB. It all works very well now :-)
