Hi,
Excuse my english and my questions, but it is not my first language, and I'm a NEWBEEE in joomla and web software. =P
I'm creating a contact form for my scout group site, and it should send the contact message for 1 of the 4 department of our group. BUT all the 4 emails are receiving the same message.
Can you help me showing me what am I doing wrong?
In the "PREVIEW" table, for the Department choice I'm using the "SELECT BOX" element.
In Select box, I'm using this in the "OPTIONS" space:
"email1@hotmail.com=Group Director
[email]email2@hotmail.com[/email]=Department 1
[email]email3@hotmail.com[/email]=Department 2
[email]email4@hotmail.com[/email]=Department 3"
and thats all in here.
In the "EVENTS" part, I use the "EMAIL" element 4 times, and put this:
In all 4 EMAILS elements I put:
General/Action Label: Each one with the name I have used above: Group Director, Department 1...
General/Attachments fields name: name,email,to,subject,message
Template:
<p>Name: {name}</p>
<p>E-mail: {email}</p>
<p>Subject: {subject}</p>
<p>Message: {message}</p>
Static:
Each one of the 4 with their email address in "To (Required)": [email]email1@hotmail.com[/email], [email]email2@hotmail.com[/email]...
Dynamic:
Dynamic To: (the names) Group Director, Department 1...
Dynamic Subject: subject
Dynamic From name: name
Dynamic From email: email
And thats it... I can fill the form, it's working great... the only problem is that ALL THE DEPARTMENTS are receiving all the messages, even if I choose the "GROUP DIRECTOR" the others departments receive it too, and so long...
What am I doing wrong? =P
Thanks for now
EDIT: I manage to find my mistake. I was creating 1 "Action Element" EMAIL in "Event" for each email... and all I should have done is create 1 (ONE) EMAIL and put the Field Name of my Select Box in the "DYNAMIC TO" space, and it would send the message for the correct email. =P

Hi marcvascas,
The standard email action will only accept one email in the Dynamic TO box. If you use my Email [GH] action then you can use an array or list of addresses.
