Changing email in custom form

joomlawhiz 28 Jan, 2013
Hi everyone,

We created a form, and added a bunch of Javascript to it to make it calculate math. Now, we need to change the email address that the form sends to, so that the emails will be sent to the client, rather than to the programmer running the tests. How do I do that without opening the wizard (since the wizard will kill the customizations e made to the form)??

Please help me out.

Thanks!!

Hi joomlawhiz,

If you set the form Type to Custom at the top of the Code tab then you can edit it in the Wizard.

I'm assuming that this is CFv4 - it's a little different on CFv3.

PS This is one of the reasons for adding your JS using the Load JS action and keeping it separate from the form HTML :-)

Some versions would be helpful, sorry about that. We are running 4.0 RC3.4.1

If we put all of the JS into the JS section, running the wizard won't kill the form? Sorry for being so dumb. We were expects in V3. This new version, while I am sure it is way more fantastic, takes a bunch of getting used to.

What do you recommend I do if the Form Type is set to Wizard? Is there a way to change the email address without killing the form?

Hi joomlawhiz,

Please take a copy of your form for safety and try doing what I suggested. You'll find that if the Form Type is set to Custom then you can edit the email actions with no problems and the form HTML will be protected.
