Formbuilder - one form, different recipients

[brandy]

Hi!

I am using Formbuilder on a website.
The form is for contacting, if you are interested in a real estate.

With the following code I read out, on which site you are sending the contact form:

<?php $form = $forms->render('kontakt', [ 'form_page' => $page->parent->title . " " . $page->title ]); ?>

So you receive a mail with the parent-page and page-title as subject, which works perfectly.

Is it now possible to extend this and send the contact-form to different mailadresses, depending on the page-parent?
I do have a field in the parent, which is linked to the right contact-information.

Thanks a lot!

I think you'd have to customize the autoresponder template from FormBuilder. Check the instructions in site/modules/FormBuilder/email-autoresponder.php, in the comments at the top of the file.

[brandy]

Thanks a lot!

But in the file there is no information about the sender.
Where does the form get its sending information?

Thanks a lot!

You know what, I misread your issue.

What could probable work is placing a hook in emailFormReady

https://processwire.com/store/form-builder/hooks/#where-to-place-hooks

wire()->addHookBefore("FormBuilderProcessor::emailFormReady",function($e){
    /** @var InputfieldForm  **/
	$form = $e->arguments(0);
    /** @var FormBuilderEmail **/
    $email = $e->arguments(1);
    if($form->name !== "the_form_in_question") return;
	$page_id = $form->getChildByName('form_page_id');
	if($page_id){
	   $contact_email = wire('pages')->get($page_id)->contact_email;
       $email->to = $contact_email;
    }
})

form_page_id would be a hidden field in the form where you save the page_id, not sure if there is a nicer way to do this! That is, without this hidden field to pass on the id info.

Thanks a lot!

I do have a construction, like this, for the emailSubject:

				<?php 
					$processor = $event->object;
					$processor->emailSubject = "Page title is: $page->title";			
					echo $form;
				?>

Is it possible to make it very simple like

$processor->emailReceipient =

Only a quick thought!

[elabx]

Oh I see! I guess that could work! Did you try?? I hadn't noticed that property was set on the Processor object. 

[brandy]

Yeah, i forgot it too.

I added following:

$processor->emailTo = "{$page->parent->projekt_bautraeger->bautraeger_mail}";	

As the e-mail is a pageReference-field in the parent, I have to build it like that, but it doesn´t work.

The following shows me the emailadress:

echo "{$page->parent->projekt_bautraeger->bautraeger_mail}";

Do you think there is a problem, as the form has recipients in the backend?

All in all emailTo seems good to me:

[brandy]

FYI: I disabled the recipients in the backend, but it doesn´t work either!

[brandy]

@elabx Do you have an idea, what I´m doing wrong?
Thanks a lot!

Hi @brandy! Could I take a look at a complete version of the hook code you are trying? If you feel like sharing the whole project with me you can DM me and maybe we'll sort it out with the real install.

[brandy]

In the head there is this:

<?php $form = $forms->render('kontakt', [ 'form_page' => $page->parent->title . " " . $page->title ]); ?>

And in the template there is this, which shows the form:
 

<?php 
	$processor = $event->object;
	$processor->emailSubject = "Page title is: $page->title";
	$processor->emailTo = "{$page->parent->projekt_bautraeger->bautraeger_mail}";			
	echo $form;
?>

Thanks a lot!

[elabx]

Ok so the second part of the code, in the template needs a hook to actually work!

If you debug $processor variable, it is most likely null! 

So, in the head.php set this up:

<?php 

wire()->addHookBefore("FormBuilderProcessor::emailFormReady",function($e){
    /** @var InputfieldForm  **/
	$form = $e->arguments(0);
    /** @var FormBuilderEmail **/
    $email = $e->arguments(1);
  
    // is this the form where we want to change the behaviour?
    if($form->name !== "the_form_in_question") return;
 
	$page_id = $form->getChildByName('page_with_contact_email');
	if($page_id){
       $page_with_contact_email = wire('pages')->get($page_id);
       if($page_with_contact_email->id){
	   		$email->to = $page_with_contact_email->contact_email;
       }
    }
    // Not really sure if this is necessary so try putting it on and off
    $event->arguments(1, $email);
})

$form = $forms->render('kontakt', [ 'form_page' => $page->parent->title . " " . $page->title , 
                                    'page_with_contact_email' => $page->parent->id
                                  ]);

The hook code is a bit different from the previous one I posted since I realised that the contact_

Then on your template:

echo $form;

Let me know how it goes!

[brandy]

Thanks a lot!

But I have a question - page_with_contact_email differs, depending from the site, where its send from.

So I mean, I have a parent page with subpages with the different contact-email-adresses.
Is this already recognized in this example?

Thanks a lot!

 

[elabx]

Maybe this part should be:

$form = $forms->render('kontakt', [ 'form_page' => $page->parent->title . " " . $page->title , 
                                    'page_with_contact_email' => $page->parent("contact_email!=");
                                  ]);

So this part:

$page->parent("contact_email!=");

Should traverse upwards from the page where the form is rendering until it finds a page with the contact_email fileld.
