hi everybody,

I'm not sure if the bug is on the side of the software or on mine.

I do have 3 different forms, 1.for contacting, 2. for inquiries and 3. for sending a form with attached files.

None of them is working properly!

Form No. 1 and 2 send empty mails with just a notice "submitted by xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx", the 3rd form does send the text fields but fails to submit attachments.

Did anybody experience sth similar? How can it be fixed? What information do I need to provide to enable you helping me?

Thanks a lot in advance!
Taiko

Hi Taiko,

It sounds as though 1 & 2 have empty templates and 3 probably doesn't have attachments enabled in the Email Setup Properties box.

Bob.

Thanks for your roadrunner-style fast response!

3 probably doesn't have attachments enabled in the Email Setup Properties box.

Attachments are enabled! Here is my HTML Code for this form:

It sounds as though 1 & 2 have empty templates

I thought those would be generated automatically, as indicated?!

Thanks a lot!
Taiko

Hi Taiko,

Hard to say - the form works OK here. You do have two file inputs with the same name which will probably casue a problem, but the third one should be OK.

Check the settings on the File Upload Tab carefully.

Check that the email template is completely empty - including checking the HTML for 'invisible' tags if you want CF to create a template for you.

Bob

Hi Greyhead,

your advice with the template helped immediately, thanks a lot!🙂

Concerning file uploads, these are my settings:

Any obvious mistake?

Greetings,
Taiko

Hi Taiko,

You've only got file_1 in the file config box there. From memory, your file inputs were file_10 (twice) and file_11

I used

file_10:jpg|png{10000-1},file_11:jpg|png{10000-1},file_12:jpg|png{10000-1}
