2 email layouts to 2 different email addresses

Hi,

Iâ€™m building an online registration form for a youth sports league using ChronoForms. How do I set it up so that on submit an email with a custom layout is sent to the registrants (persons filling out the form) and a separate email with a different custom layout is sent to league administrators.

Hi William,

This isn't supported 'out of the box' but you can fairly easily do it by writing code to send the second email and putting it in the 'OnSubmit after email' box. Here's an example from another thread:

<?php
$recipient = $_POST['client-email'];
$html_message = "<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Thank you for filling out our customer survey.</p><p>If you have any question or 
other comments, please let us know.</p>
<p>Nikhil<br />General Manager</p>
<p>DMC Car Care</p>";
$subject = $subject;
mosMail($from, $fromname, $recipient, $subject, $html_message, true, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL );
?>

Thanks Bob,

I'll give it a try. Our form has three email fields: player, parent1, and parent2. To have the email sent to all three should the code look like this?



$recipient = $_POST['player'];
$_POST['parent1'];
$_POST['parent2'];

If the registrant does not fill out all the fields (i.e only parent1 email is provided on form) will the PHP code fail to send?

Regards,

William

Hi William,

You need the following code in the "OnSubmit before email" box:

<?php
$rows[0]->extraemail = $rows[0]->extraemail.",".$_POST['player'].",".$_POST['parent1'].",".$_POST['parent2'];
?>

This should add the all three recipients to the existing array. Not very elegant I'm afraid.

Please test it and let me know if there are any bugs.

I want to send an email to 'email' and 'sec'.
I've tried the php-script, but it doesn't work.
Here's the beginning of my php-script.
What I'am doing wrong?

<?php
$rows[0]->extraemail = $rows[0]->extraemail.",".$_POST['email'].",".$_POST['sec'];
$from = $replyto_email ="'xxxx";
$fromname = $replyto_name = "Karel V";
$recipient = $_POST['email'];
$subject = "Registration .....";

$message = '
<html>

Hi YLI,

Add both a To field and a Dynamic To field to your Email setup.

Hi YLI,

You don't need any PHP - just drag another To box into your email setup.

Hi Bob,

Sorry, but do you mean in the General tab?
Some posts earlier you'll see my php script from my email setup.

Hi Bob,

We're using Joomla 1.0.13 and do have a special field tab, but no email setup tab.

Hi YLI,

Ah! In that case . . . the *best* answer is to upgrade to Joomla 1.5.

If you can't do that then you'll need to add code in the OnSubmit Before box to add the second email. I'm sure that's in the forums here but many months back.

If you can't find it then ask again and I'll see if I can remember how the old version of ChronoForms works.

Hi Yli,

Search for "mosmail", this is the function which will do emails in the earlier version, so you should be able to find some posts which have this text!
