Multiple email recipients of custom form


(Tom Chadwin) #1

For plot, see title. Can the recipient To: field of a custom form's Email options contain multiple email addresses? The manual does not say it can. If it can, what separator?

No, it can't, but that is why you have multiple fields for that take one email address per field:

Is this not what you were wanting to do?

I believe Tom wants to be able to create a form which can be sent to multiple emails by pressing submit only once, instead of having to input the same info into the form, only to change the email address. That is my understanding, but I may be wrong. Unfortunately I don't have the experience to know how this could be achieved, sorry :)

Nic's answered the question. We wanted to be able to copy a central address for audit purposes, so being able to add this address / multiple addresses in the form contents email options section fulfils our needs. (BTW Tom was asking the question on my behalf - I've since joined the membership).

 

Many thanks

Yes, sorry about that, directly after posting I realised Tom was asking about the custom form email options and not the custom forms email form component. Completely my bad. And welcome to the forum Steve, these guys are incredibly helpful :)

Oh dear me. I must have gone square-eyed looking at /_admin for so long to miss something so fundamentally basic. Many thanks, Nic. Steve, your suspicions of my incompetence are hereby verified.
