email to adress from formfield

carsten888 03 Mar, 2015
I know this must be real simple, this used to work in v4, but after migration this stopped working.

I want to send an email to the adress the user submitted in the form. So I created an email action. I entered my own adress in the 'to' field and this {input_text_9} in the 'dynamic to' field.
I get the email, but the user not.
This used to work fine in v4.

If I add the bracket in the 'to' field, then CF shows a red message in the from > designer view (and it does not send the email).

The save to db works fine and shows the correct data, so I assume the form is ok.

I added the 'debug' action and the output for the from seems just fine. The error-array is empty.

How to send an email to a dynamic value from the form? I must be overlokking something.

I think you have to use the field_name without brackets in the 'Dynamic to'

Hi carsten888,

Please test using only the Dynamic To - without any brackets.

If you want a copy to yourself then use the CC box.

hmmm. Today not matter what I try I get

Could not open socket: 110 - Connection timed out


Its probably the recaptcha.
so I will just have to wait for this to magically fix itself before I can start testing.

solution was indeed to use the code without the brackets.

Maybe the update script from v4 to v5 could process these changes.

Thanks for the help.
