it seems that what I am doing here is also overwriting the standard
mailform somehow?

Im trying to figure how to make my form send as an email...

I thought I would just create a normal form cobject the normal way in
backend, to see what it adds to the code, to rty to figure it out...

but when I do that, even though the form cobject is the standard one
inserted, it shows as my revised version. have I overwritten the default
one?

How can I revert to the default if needed?

little worried here...

Any help much appreciated, thanks!

Yes, it looks like i was overwriting that form, so i moved all this code
into the condition statement in the setup ts. So when im on the page
that should have the changed form, it does the code....

Ok so now to figure out why not emailing!

open to suggestions on that one!

Thanks,
Andrew Davis

Use the TypoScript Object Browser TSOB and tell me what you find here:

tt_content
+ mailform
+ 20
+ recipient
field

if you find anything there, ask yourself what this could mean for your form
;-)

thank you for suggestion, but my typoscript is included from external
file and does not seem to be showing up on the object browser.... I will
try and place the ts into the template record instead of including it,
and hopefully that will allow me to better troubleshoot.

Your major problem might be that you are copying your new settings into the
original element like that:

tt_content.original < temp.mysettings

this will leave any settings that you didn't provide in your temp.mysettings
intact.
So if there was something like

tt_content.original.somesetting = somefield

this will remain as is as long as you didn't override it with

temp.mysettings.somesetting = somefield

So if there was a recipient setting in the original mailform, taking the
value from a DB field this will still be done, thus making the recipient you
made in your temp setup disappear.
Recipient is a special case, since there is a TS property for this special
purpose, and this will override any settings from the data array.

To get rid of the old settings you should always empty the original first.

tt_content.original >
tt_content.original < temp.mysettings

Well in this case it has been even more tricky, since you already set the
correct property "recipient".

But in the TS tree it is looking like this:

recipient = junk (AT) avagraphique (DOT) com
recipient.field = subheader

So regardless of the value you assigned to recipient this will always be
overriden by the .field property, trying to assign a value from the field
tt_content.subheader.
I guess this field is empty in your case, so you don't get any recipient.

Still the solution is the same.
First empty the section then copy your settings.

tt_content.mailform >
tt_content.mailform < temp.form

i think i understand what is happening, but not sure why this is still
not working...

At the end of my setup for the FORM, i insert

tt_content.mailform.20 >
tt_content.mailform.20 < temp.form

and i get the same result (no mail sent). Note I tried your exact ts below (
tt_content.mailform > tt_content.mailform < temp.form
) but when I do that the form does not render at all (Subpart marker
doesnt get replaced in the template)


here is my ts (object browser screenshot).
www.avagraphique.com/help/emailformts.pdf


i setup a normal mailform and it sends ok, so i know it should be able
to do so...


Frustrated.....

thanks for all help,
Andrew Davis
