Not getting emails from form

Does Chronoforms send emails even if the "action" is to send the visitor to PayPal? My "onsubmit" is "https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" and that seems to be working perfectly. But I am receiving no emails with the form information. Here is the form: http://www.childgrove.org/kimmswick/test-k2.html.

Hi westendweb,

Yes, if you use an OnSubmit URL then the form is submitted to that URL; ChronoForms never sees it and so can’t do anything with the form results.

If you want both then you have to use a ReDirect URL to transfer the user to PayPal after ChronoForms ahs processed the results. The ReDirect plug-in is the simplest way to do this.

Thanks! I'm getting emails now.

But now I'm not getting redirected to PayPal. I've put https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr in the URL parameters and I've attached a screenshot with what I put in the redirect plugin.

I wasn't sure about the syntax in the boxes - one post suggested no quotes, but an answer suggested quotes. Single quotes? Double? None?

Should it be redirect before or after email?

Okay, I got a programmer friend to help, and it's fixed.

What helped was first, to put the code in the redirect plugin in correctly (not in HTML, just field name pairs, like cmd=_xclick). Then to make sure the plugin was activated - making sure to hit "Save" helped a lot. :-) None of it was anything I couldn't have done, but the machine just liked him better than it liked me...

It goes up for testing in the next couple of days, then live on Friday.

Thanks for your help!

Hi westednweb,

Great - glad it's fixed. If in doubt check the Help tab and the ToolTips - in this case the ToolTip shows the correct syntax to use.
