Sometimes I'm just lucky I guess :) Hey thank you for the tip! That was driving me crazy. redityo on "Email from a drop downlist" http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/email-from-a-drop-downlist#post-3569 Thu, 06 Nov 2008 19:01:03 +0000 redityo 3569@http://www.appnitro.com/forums/ Hi, Hmmm really it send with review page disabled? I will check it. However you can try comment the code on line 478. It will not send to "notification" email, only to the email list from selected options. <pre><code>//$send_status = $mail->Send(); <-- comment this $mail->ClearAddresses();</code></pre> franki on "Email from a drop downlist" http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/email-from-a-drop-downlist#post-3559 Thu, 06 Nov 2008 10:19:10 +0000 franki 3559@http://www.appnitro.com/forums/ Is it strange that I tried this process and mine sends email even if I don't have preview enabled?? However, in both cases it will not send email to the address selected from the menu unless I have an email address fill out in the notification setting. When I do have an address in the notification the form sends to that one and to the selected address from the form. How can I eliminate the notification email and only get one from the form option that was selected? Thanks again. anthonybest on "Email from a drop downlist" http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/email-from-a-drop-downlist#post-2680 Fri, 15 Aug 2008 00:14:18 +0000 anthonybest 2680@http://www.appnitro.com/forums/ Please ingore above message.

The form returns no error, and saves the data in the form. However the mail does not send. My mail server requires authentication. I have another for where mail is working correctly. Is there a change that should be made to add in the authentication information? yuniar on "Email from a drop downlist" http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/email-from-a-drop-downlist#post-2601 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:30:17 +0000 yuniar 2601@http://www.appnitro.com/forums/ Ok, let's take an example with this form: <a href="http://www.appnitro.com/forms/view.php?id=18" rel="nofollow">http://www.appnitro.com/forms/view.php?id=18</a> That form is having form_id = 18 and the "Send Email To" dropdown is having id = "element_3" (view the HTML source to see this) The dropdown is having some values: <pre><code><option value="1" >Sales</option> <option value="2" >Human Resource Dept.</option> <option value="3" >Support</option> <option value="4" >Accounting</option> <option value="5" >Legal</option></code></pre> To be able sending email to the selected user from the dropdown, follow these steps: 1) Edit hooks/custom_hooks.php, add this code: <pre><code>function form18_hook_email($params){ //change the email addresses below $email_list[1] = 'sales@example.com'; $email_list[2] = 'hrd@example.com'; $email_list[3] = 'support@example.com'; $email_list[4] = 'accounts@example.com'; $email_list[5] = 'legal@example.org'; $res = do_query("select element_3 from ap_form_{$params['form_id']} where id='{$params['entry_id']}'"); $row = do_fetch_result($res); $attn = $row['element_3']; $target_email = $email_list[$attn]; if(!empty($target_email)){ return $target_email; }else { return true; } }</code></pre> Adjust the function name form18_hook_email to use your own form id number. Also adjust the element_3 with your own dropdown id number. Of course, don't forget the email list too. 2) Edit includes/helper-functions.php, search around line 478 for this code: <pre><code>$send_status = $mail->Send(); $mail->ClearAddresses();</code></pre> Right under that code, insert this code: <pre><code>if($target_is_admin){ if(function_exists("form{$form_id}_hook_email")){ $carbon_param['form_id'] = $form_id; $carbon_param['entry_id'] = $entry_id; $carbon_email = call_user_func("form{$form_id}_hook_email",$carbon_param); if(!empty($carbon_email)){ $mail->AddAddress($carbon_email); $mail->Send(); } } }</code></pre> 3) Edit confirm.php and confirm_embed.php. Around line 20, insert this line: <pre><code>require('hooks/custom_hooks.php');</code></pre> That would allow you to send email to the selected user from dropdown. The code above only work for form with "Form Review" enabled. anthonybest on "Email from a drop downlist" http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/email-from-a-drop-downlist#post-2584 Mon, 04 Aug 2008 23:45:38 +0000 anthonybest 2584@http://www.appnitro.com/forums/ Yes, on this specific for I do have it enabled. If the only way to make it work is to disable this, I believe I can turn it off. yuniar on "Email from a drop downlist" http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/email-from-a-drop-downlist#post-2566 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 10:59:01 +0000 yuniar 2566@http://www.appnitro.com/forums/ Do you have form review enabled or not? I have some hack for this, but would depend on your answer to the above question. anthonybest on "Email from a drop downlist" http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/email-from-a-drop-downlist#post-2559 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 23:27:44 +0000 anthonybest 2559@http://www.appnitro.com/forums/ Is it possible to have the user select who the form is emailed to from a drop down list?
