Is there a way to define a cc within the email template /collectedinfomail/form.tpl like:

{set-block scope=root variable=email_receiver}[email protected]{/set-block}

{set-block scope=root variable=email_cc}[email protected]{/set-block}

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Best regards

Norman, look in to kernel/content/collectinformation.php you will need to extend this file and add need PHP code which read variable mail_cc and prepare cc $mail->addCc( $email, $name = false );

Thanks Lukasz,

I added the following lines:

            $bccreceiver =& $tpl->variable( 'email_bcc' ); 
            
            if ( !$mail->validate( $bccreceiver ) )
            {
                $bccreceiver = $ini->variable( "InformationCollectionSettings", "BccEmailReceiver" );
                if ( !$bccreceiver )
                    $bccreceiver = $ini->variable( "MailSettings", "AdminEmail" );
            }            
            $mail->addBcc( $bccreceiver, $name = false );

So I may use

{set-block scope=root variable=email_bcc}[email protected]{/set-block}

within the template

or

[InformationCollectionSettings]
[email protected]

within the site.ini

Yes if you use the patch, you can just use an array like:

{set-block scope=root variable=email_cc_receivers}{$receiversarray}{/set-block}

In my case it works without any problems.

Currentlly I don't know if this will be a feature of future ez versions.

I try the patch in ez 3.7.6 and work fine with a Bcc and Ccn email, but if I pass an array does not works.

my code:

{set-block scope=root variable=email_bcc_receivers}{def $array_multireceiver=array('[email protected]','[email protected]')}{/set-block}

Where is the problem?

I had problems sending to emails defined in an array as well.

To send emails to an array of destinators, you need to create the array using the operator {append-block} instead of {set-block}.

See my comment at http://issues.ez.no/IssueView.php?Id=8009&ProjectId=3&Anchor=Comment250945

hope this helps!

Hi all,

you can add cc or bcc receivers like this way:

{append-block scope=root variable=email_cc_receivers}[email protected]{/append-block}
{append-block scope=root variable=email_cc_receivers}[email protected]{/append-block}

You can also use variable=email_bcc_receivers to add bcc receivers.

hth!

Hi Mathew, Xavier,

Its been a while hasnt it ;)

I need to review this since eZ have made it easier to add in multiple cc's in recent releases. Some of it depends on whether you want the user to enter the info from object level, template level, or tie the new fields through a combination of the two.

So, i will examine what is useful now and get back to you.
