    Default sending mail using a form inside private area [solved]

    Hi,

    I have a website containing a private area, so the user logs in providing username and password.
    Inside this area there are a few forms to be filled in.
    I'd like to be able to send a confirmation email (containing the data filled in) to the logged in person's email address. Is this thing possible?

    Thank you,
    Dan

    You may want to check the extension repository. I was just looking at confirmation emails in the form generator today actually. I know there's atleast two modules that send confirmation emails when someone sends a form through but I'm not sure if these will also send the supplied form data.

    Hi Justin,

    there are two modules that accomplish this task, one is efg the other one is formauto. Unfortunately they do not send the data to the logged in person; I have to specify to what email address the info (including data as well if desired) should be sent.
    So up to now, no luck

    Just in case anyone wants to know how to solve it:

    1. Tick "send confirmation by email"
    2. In the mail confirmation text body use {{form::field_your_field_name}}
    3. That's all.

    Cheers,
    Dan
