Send to a friend

Post by lennon »

I was wondering whether there is a function to have an "email this page to a friend" link on CMSMS?

A client has requested it at the 11th hour. I've had a look at the forum and dev area but cant see anything.

The current feedback form doesnt seem to be able to do this. Or am I wrong?

Any help appreciated...

This should not be too hard...
Sending an email with cms/phpmailer is easy.  Determining what page you are on should not be too hard if you put the code for 'alert friend to this page' in a customtag. Less then a day work, by my shoddy estimates... (double and round up to the next magnitude to get a safe estimate).
But please be aware that letting the (web)user define both the content and the recipient means you are opening a spam relay,
