[Pro] PHP Feedback Form not working!

Freeway
1

Hey gang,
I’m working on a site with a feedback form. Everything seems to be working on it But the feedback form! When I test it, it responds as if I’ve sent the email correctly (sending me to the success page) but nothing actually happens—I’m not receiving the emails!

PLEASE HELP!

Hi,
Who is your hosting provider? Some hosts (GoDaddy for example) throttle the outgoing mail so they are processed every half an hour or so rather than process it on the spot. I’d suggest contacting your host and ask them if there is anything specific you need to enable to send email through PHP. Depending on their response you may find a feature in the Action that they require - defining the SMTP port for example or setting the Action to use a trusted sender email address.
If the form isn’t returning an error then the server is sending the email to sendmail for you. It is now up to the server to deal with the request and, hopefully, send the email out.
Regards,
Tim.

The problem I’m noticing, however, is that even when I don’t use a valid email address, the actions still proceeds to work as if it did! :confused:

If you can post a link to your page it would help. Also check the email input box - is it called ‘email’ in the 3rd Tab in the inspector?

For me its not working aswell. First, I have said the input text as a layer, because in other case, it doesn let me write on them, and I have to send back the table. Is this ok?
Then I put a succes page and an error one, but when I pulse “send” button, it doesnt do anything, dont show error or success, and dont send (I dont receive at least) I

leave my link: www.i-tek.es/prueba_mail that i made just to try.

Thanks

Hi,
Looking at the source code for the page I can see that some of the form items are set as layers. This causes the HTML for the form to split up and the layered items are positioned outside of the main tags. As such the layered items won’t be collected in the data and subsequent email.
Make all of these items non-layers or inflow items and you should be back on track.

Alternatively you can apply the PHP Feedback Form Action to the page and remove it from the table on your page as this will wrap all of the form items in the same form tags.
Regards,
Tim.

Got it!! At the same link. At first I put the elements as layer beceuse in the example file the elements were green lined. Now I have put the action to the page. But when I export it says that the table is out of range. You know what that it means?

Another question: I didnt make nothing related to “forms”, is necessary to make forms as in Dreamweaver, when you use actions with form elements?

Thanks a lot.

As I said you have to make sure that the email input field is named correctly.

What you have is the ‘ID’ (Title in 1st Tab) of email but the ‘name’ (3rd Tab) of item7

Change item7 to read email and you will be good to go.
