Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
Yes, your email address won’t be available (outside the plugin) because its all PHP-side, not HTML or JS. :)

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
I can’t get this plugin working :(. I tried all things people suggested here but still no success.
After I press submit button it says that message has been sent but I never receive one. I tried two email addresses.
Could anyone help me to solve this?
Thank you.
Here is my testpage: http://thepanic.hollosite.com/?s=contact

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
If you view the source of your page, you may see that there is no recipient email address specified…

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
I’m not sure what you mean. I specified my email address in txp tag <:txp:dca_mailto_form email=“your@email.address” />

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
View the source in the browser displaying your site. The code generated by the plugin, does not generate the form correctly. Something is wrong – though I’m out of ideas as to what ;-(
Have you tried deinstalling the plug, then reinstalling it? Activating it?

And I assume that you have the txp-tag like here:
<txp:dca_mailto_form email=“your@email.address” />
and not with the colon as in your above post
<:txp:dca_mailto_form email=“your@email.address” />
(just making sure)

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
Yes, I have it without colon. I just didn’t know/was lazy to find out how to post a code so I put an extra colon in front of the tag.
I tried to change this: action="'.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].'"
I also tried to put my contact page url manually. Nothing works. Message has been sent (email form disappears but I guess it’s supposed to work like this) but the message is never received.
Thank you for your replies anyway.
EDIT: And yes, I reinstalled and activated many times. I’m yet going to try to copy/paste and install.
EDIT2: Update: Doesn’t work :(

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
Hmm… I just tried putting it up on my own site, but I cannot make it work – so now we are two;-)
I’ve had it work easily and smoothly on a few sites in the past though.
Maybe something was changed in 1rc1 that breaks the plug…
???
PS: To post code on this forum, just put it inside double equals;-)
PPS: You better just create a mailform yourself, so many scripts outthere, and just put it in a “Form” and output it with the output-form-tag…

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
Aaah, thank you :)
Anyway, I don’t know where the problem could be. I’m not friend with php at all.
I know that there are free email form scripts on the internet but at the moment I’m not able to make them run. Lack of knowledge :/. So I thought that this plugin would be a perfect solution for me. Maybe there is something wrong with my server also, for example I wasn’t able to make clean URL mode working too. Well, maybe it’s me, maybe I make a mistake at some point. I will keep trying :)

Most webhosts offer a simple mailform-script – try looking under “support” on their site;-)

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
Will check :)
At the moment I’m in stage when I’m having a free hosting and just learning to work with Textpattern. After I reach certain knowledge level I’m gonna pay for hosting and then I could get also support for such a things like email form script.
