Multiple Recipient cform
cformsII is the flexible form plugin provided on dVector.com. A multiple recipient form takes one of two types.
- Each form submission goes to multiple recipients
- The recipient of a form depends on a form select box
Each form submission goes to multiple recipients
This is the easier of the two in both concept and implementation. By default, when your form is submitted it is emailed to the ‘Admin email address’. If you would like a form to be sent to more than 1 address, simply comma separate the list of email addresses to send to. View the image as an example.
The recipient of a form depends on a form select box
This is a little more difficult to achieve but still quite easy using cforms. Here it is a two step process. Step one is to create a special Multiple Recipients field. Step two sets the email addresses for the recipients.
Create the special Multiple Recipient field
Create a new field and give it the type ‘Multiple Recipients’. In the field name, enter the select box label and then the select box choices separated by the ‘#’. Your field name will then look like:
Recipient?#President#Vice President#Senator#Representative
Which in your form will look like:
Set the email address for the recipients
Enter a properly ordered, comma separated list of email addresses into the ‘Admin email addresses’. View the example:
