Formbuilder / Listit2 connect recipient (UDT?)

[erpee]

I have a Formbuilder-form that will be executed by a Listit2 module.

The various items in the module all have their own emailaddresses.

Is there a way to connect the emailaddress which comes out of the listit2 module to the Formbuilder form? (by e.g. a call or an UDT)

Passing Default Values to Forms

Calguy added a nice feature, which is that you can pass default field values to your form via the module tag. This allows you to have the same form in multiple places, but with different default values. It may not work for more exotic field types, but for fields that have a single value, you can specify like:

{FormBuilder form='my_form' value_FIELDNAME='default_value'}

This will set the field with FIELDNAME to 'default_value'.

This can be problematic, as sometimes field names are unwieldy or contain characters that don't work well with Smarty. So there is an alternative like this:

{FormBuilder form='my_form' value_fldNUMBER='default_value'}

That uses field NUMBER, where NUMBER is the internal FormBuilder field id. You might wonder how you know what that id is. Simply go into the FormBuilder configuration tab, and check "Show Field IDs"

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

I've tried this but I can't seem to find the ID for for the recipient address.

This is the form how it looks in the source code of the website ...

You want to be able to set the email address of the receiver dynamically?

What TYPE (exact) field do you use? *Email Results to set Address(es)?

It may not work for more exotic field types, but for fields that have a single value, you can specify like:

If I check the checkbox like Stikki suggested I can see the ID of the FIELD (not the address). But I don't know if setting the email address works like he suggested. You should just test it.

Of course you won't find the ID in the page html source. This field is not displayed on frontend.

If you can't set the recipient address, maybe you can mis-use the '*Email "From Address" Field, and send copy' field. Make sure to not display it on the frontend.

Like this maybe?

Code: Select all

FormBuilder form='my_form' value_fld666=$item->email_field_of_listit}
