Send Files as Email Attachment

snowest 09 Sep, 2013
Yes I did research and I tried a lot of things that I red her in this forum. Pleas don't tel me to read the faq's or look an other post. I did it allready.

My Joomla Version ist 2.5 and my CF version is 4.

I can't attatche files to a Email. I created a Form, at the end of the form, people can upload pdf files, to send it to us. We should get a email with the Attatchments, but this does not work at all. The files are uploaded succsesfully on the server, standard path.

I need the email attatchment to work very soon, otherwise I have a big problem. I'm not a coder and more or less a basic user.

Thank you very much for your help

Hi snowest,

Well, hard to know what to say. The FAQs work; impossible to say which bit of the form setup is broken from the information you have give here :-(

Please drag a Debugger action into the On Submit event, then submit the form and post the debug - including the 'dummy emails' results here.

Note: if you are using the Easy Wizard you can turn on Debug on the Others tab.

Hi nicolafw,

There's no sign of an Upload Files action in the Debug info. You need to add one to upload files from your form.

Thanks Greyhead. I managed to get the files uploaded. But how can I get them emailed? The form content is being mailed, but the attachments are not being sent.

Thanks, it does work now, don't know what was wrong before though.
