Connecting to Table after running arround it

finc 24 Apr, 2011
I have started to make a form with the Wizard and figured out that I want to have a Custom layout.
So I switched the Form type to Custom.
Okay so far ...

Now I wanted to create Tables and I did that one, too.

Well Table created but not yet connected. Where the hack I can connect the form to the tables now?
In Easy Form Wizard I can find the place to connect, but not here!

Regards

Click on Wizard edit for Your Form.
When You are in You can see the Name of Your Form and next to it (Edit in Easy Mode)

You click on it and You will see all the Tabs You need, and for me I need Store Data

* Preview
* Emails
* Thanks Message
* Files Uploads
* Code
* Anti Spam
* Store Data
* Form Settings

Somtimes its not enough to behave Your stupid, You have to be it!😉

Step 3:

I lost my Email Template - O my God
What I have done?

Now I wish to go back to V3
I have problems to send an Email to {email} the one who filled the form,
because I dont have dynamic subject, sender and from name.
Thats was easier before😉

Step 4:

Adding some hidden fields did not help

<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="from" value="me@email.mine">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="subject" value="Subject-Text">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="fromname" value="John Workarround">


Now I need help on this

Hi finc,

The Dynamic boxes are still there - on the Dynamic Tab in CFv4

Yes Bob,

they are, but do I do that with those hidden fields?
And is the code I use okay for that?

Hi finc,

The code looks OK to me; I'd add some more quotes but that's just being fussy:
<input type='hidden' name='from' id='from' value='me@email.mine'>

Bob

PS I strongly recommend that you do *not* use the Dynamic From Email element in your Email Setups. Using this often results in your emails being marked as spam and dropped into a spam filter. Instead use the static From Email with an address that matches the site domain name and use Dynamic ReplyTo Email for the user email. The result is the same but with a much better chance of good delivery.

Does it matter, if I have static and dynamic setup made in Email #1.

Do I have to seperate static to Email #1 dunamic to Email #2 setup?

I did a seperate setup, but I do not get it to work.

Hi finc,

I think that you can use both Static To and Dynamic To in the same Email Setup.

Can not get it to work, must be only a little mistake somewhere.
{email} maybe should change that one to something else.

I found this in the code

<td><input maxlength="150" size="30" class=" validate['email']" type="text" value="" name="email" /></td>

Hi finc,

Use email with no brackets or quotes

Bob

Thanks Bob,

I had to take all brackets away that I used, not only from dynamic to,
now it is working!
