Can't get Dynamic Reply to email working

morktron 25 Jan, 2012
Hi I can't seem to get the dynamic reply to email field working. I've watched your most excellent YouTube video tut and see I've done everything right as far as I can tell. I've put in the correct field - {email}

Maybe there is some magic trickery involved? Please let me know if you have any suggestions or if you could take a look.

Many thanks

Hi morktron ,

There's no magic involved. Please drag a Debugger action into the On Submit event, then submit the form and post the debug - including the 'dummy emails' results here.

Hi, so sorry for my slow reply! I'm back now though. Here are the debugger results.

Also now the date picker is behaving oddly and will only choose the 1st or middle of the month!

Please let me know how to fix it, many thanks

Hi morktron,

I think this is a linked to the Joomla! bug in this post. It looks as though it's been (partially?) fixed in Joomla! 2.5 - the code in that function has been changed; but ChronoForms hasn't been updated to use the fix.

Later: my suspicion about the 'partial' fix was correct. The Joomla! sendmail function hasn't been updated to take account of it so ChronoForms still can't use it. Please see this post for more info and a workaround.
