[Pro] Send Form — some questions

Freeway

Send Form is a great new action in FWP6. I do have two questions:

[1] Is there a way to send a copy to the person filling out the form? If there is, I’m looking right past it.

[2] It’s great that there is a field type that catches whether or not something entered as an e-mail address really is one (correct format). Is there a way of adding the profanatory “enter your e-mail again” field to make certain the really did enter their correct address?

Not out of the box.

Again that would have to be an ‘add on’ as the PHP would have to check the 2 fields and see if they match and it is not currently written like that.

Might be worth asking Tim (who wrote the original PHP Feedback Form action) on which SendForm is largely based if he would consider adding it as a feature.

But as it stands the action is designed for mainly contact forms whereas a feature like you suggest is really for Sign Up.

As an update to sending a copy to the sender as well as the recipient there was a hack for the PHP Feedback Form action that Walter discovered to allow you to do this.

I have just checked and it appears to work in the SendForm action too.

In the action interface paste the following into the recipient field

"; $r = "email@hidden,".$_POST['email']; $recipient .= $r;
$recipient .= "

Of course substituting your real recipients email address for the emal@hidden that you will see on FWT.
