Zem_contact reborn -> email to multiple recipients

I did a search on the forum and I read the help notes, but wasn’t sure if question had been asked/answered. So thanks in advance.

Is there a built in way to add multiple recipients in the <txp:zem_contact to=“email”> field? So if there are two admins to a website that both would receive copies of the email.

Or maybe you can add a cc?

Txp is wonderful so thanks to all the devs and the community here. Y’all make it happen.

cheers,

eugene

Not sure his question has been answered alexandra. Stuart mentions in the above post that the zem_contact_select tag is not the tag eugene or others are looking for.

Edit: Mmmmm…..how to quote post number #23 in that thread? I don’t see the option others have seen and used…!!

Thanks for the quick replies.

Does zem_contact_select allow one to be able to select multiple email addressees at once? I’ll play with it tonight.

cheers.

Re: Zem_contact reborn -> email to multiple recipients

Don’t think it does what you want eugene. The author of the email select function is not Stuart. You can read that thread for more. Alexandra – how to quote a post number in another thread? I don’t see how to do that.

Re: Zem_contact reborn -> email to multiple recipients

Sorry for the delay. My PC decided to pass into the next world. I’m using a borrowed one at the moment.

Anyway the latest zem_contact_reborn plug-in does not do multiple recipients. It can select a single recipient from a drop-down list but cannot select multiple recipients. The new function that did this cannot be included into the plug-in because the function itself is only responsible for the “drop-down” side of things and relies on major changes to the zem_contact function to work. As I mentioned when I created the plug-in I am no coder but if someone wants to look at it and give me some code I am quite happy to add it in and re-issue the plug-in.

In the mean time can we stick to the main thread and stop opening a new one whenever someone has a problem? In fact if any moderator is looking on I think this whole thread could be combined with the plug-in thread.
