I'm using Dynamic Forms 4.10.4 on a DotNetNuke 6.2.5 website.
I'm trying to create an Email Completion Event with form tokens used in the From, Subject and To fields as well as the Body of the message.
The module's on screen help says:
- Include these parameters below in your email to, subject, or
email message. These parameters will be replaced with the email is
sent."
The Dynamic Forms user manual says, for example,:
From Email Address– enter the from email address for this email event. The from email
can either be static, such as ‘host@yoursite.com’ or it can be dynamic based on a fields
response. To base the field on a users response you would use the short field name in
between the parentheses, such as $(YourFromDynamicField).
I find that they are only replaced in the body of the message. They are left "as is" if used in the From, To or Subject fields.
For example, if I submit a form with this:
I get the following email:
- From: $(UserID)
- To: Larry@CompanionSoftware.com
- Subject: $(Request_FullResults)
- Body:User 1104 has made the following action request:
Action Account #: 000123456
Action Note: This is a note
Action Request: Request to Hold
In scanning the forums, it appears that this same issue has been written about in other threads including:
Am I doing something wrong? Does this feature work in DF 4.10.4?
