Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20

Hello,

I hope I am posting this in the right place.

I’m using Zem Contact Reborn. In addition to sending the form submissions to one of my email addresses, I would also like to bcc the submissions to a different email address too.

How do I set up the bcc with Zem Contact Reborn?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer

Smaavie

Smaavi, the easiest way is to edit the plugin and add the header yourself, which is relatively easy once you’ve found where the other exising headers are.

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20

As I was looking for ways for a preflight function to check for the existence of specific ZCR errors I wondered about the possibility of giving the error message array actual key names. For example, one of the error lines within the email function might look like:

$zem_contact_error[$name."_invalid_email"] = zem_contact_gTxt('invalid_email', htmlspecialchars($email));

instead of:

$zem_contact_error[] = zem_contact_gTxt('invalid_email', htmlspecialchars($email));

Is this a valid approach (and a possible addition to the ZCR code) or are there problems that I’m overlooking?

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20

Hi

I’ve been using zem_contact_reborn for contact forms and it has been working perfectly until my hosting company upgraded from PHP4 to PHP5. Does anyone know if there are any issues that could be related to this upgrade that prevent the form from working? The form appears to send normally but the email never arrives at its destination.

thanks

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20

Create a file called mail.php, containing the following code, upload it to your webspace and visit it using your browser. If that doesn’t send email either, first look at the web server error log files. If they don’t reveal anything, contact your webhost and ask them to look at the mail server log files.

<?php mail('your_email_address', 'the subject', 'the message'); echo 'mail sent'; ?>

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20

Have you tried using the compressed plug-in code?

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20

Hi,

Does anyone know where I could find the text strings in zem_contact_lang translated into Spanish?

Thanks for any help on this….I’m cross posting it to the MLP forum as well.

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20

Hi again,

Sorry to return to an older topic. I want to bcc all submissions to a different email address. Ruud’s advice was:

“Smaavi, the easiest way is to edit the plugin and add the header yourself, which is relatively easy once you’ve found where the other exising headers are.”

I appreciate that this would be very easy for someone with more knowledge than me, but I have to admit that I’m struggling to implement this myself. Can anyone offer more specific advice about how I should edit the header to get the Bcc working?

All help will be very much appreciated.

Cheers
Smaavie
