FomBuilder 0.7.3 not sending email [SOLVED]

Post by wmdvanzyl »

Hi All.

I am running CMSMS 1.11.10 and FormBuilder 0.7.3
I have set up CMSMailer and it is sending me test emails just fine.
I am not getting any errors using debug mode in config.php

However, i am getting this error when using FOrmBuilders own debug mode:

Code: Select all

Warning: Illegal string offset 'sent' in /home/tenniubu/public_html/modules/FormBuilder/classes/DispositionEmailBase.class.php on line 82
What does this mean? It seems like this could be related to me not receiving emails from the form.

What is absolutely necessary to make a form functional. I only have the following set up:

Additionally keep in mind that in the disposition *Email Results to set Address(es) the "From address" for email: field should usually be an existing email address on the host where your site is set, otherwise it may fail.
Do not just pick a random address here -- many ISPs will
not deliver the mail if you are using a different domain name than your actual
host name
In the majority of the cases the address must also exist.

Thank you for the responses(response/responsii??).

Rolf, i am on the final steps before going live. Just need to get this out before the weekend and then i'll do another round of upgrades. Thanks for pointing that out though.

Jo, thanks - your tip caused me to recheck everything and i found the slightest spelling error in the from address. ;) Fixed the issue!


On a side note, is there a way to set the "return address" to a field that the user provides? Just to make it simpler to respond to emails recieved from the form.

Add a "From address" to the form, the bottom field on the edit screen ask you which field you want to fill the "from", the "reply-to", or both.
