I have a form at http://jocospayneuter.org/contact.html. The notification email (with all the form information) is sent to info@jocospayneuter.org and cc'd to a couple other personal email addresses. The problem is that sometimes the volunteers respond to the submitted contact form from their own personal email address, which in-turn messes up the flow of information.

Is there any way to send the complete form results to the info@jocospayneuterfund.org and at the same time send a notification (no form results) to personal email addresses that just includes an alert that a contact form has been submitted and to go to the info@jocospayneuter.org address to see the full details?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Galen,
How about texting an alert?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Now that's a good idea. Could that be done within WFB?

No requires a little bit of altering the files after export. Very easy.

Hello Eric,
Any way you could show us how that is done? Step by step as I have no clue, but it seems like it would be useful
Thanks,
Mark

Eric,

Thanks for that link. I am going to substitute my information into the script and then pass the script back to you to take a look at before I try and customize anything. I am going to delete a couple of fields so that it will force the receiver of the text message to go to webmail to find out what was submitted. So the text will just be an alert to an incoming contact form.

Thanks for your help. This stuff makes me nervous!

Will post back with the script in a day or two for you to take a look.

Hi Eric,

Well I gave it a try but the form comes back with an error. I tried to make some changes, but am not familiar with the coding syntax. The error occurred on the last two lines.

Here is the script:

$post = $_SESSION['post'];
$post['fname'];// form name field
$post['lname'];// form email field
$phonenumber = '5414410265'; //Your phone number
$carrier = 'sms.myboostmobile.com'; // Your carrier SMS
mail($phonenumber."@".$carrier, "", $fname." filled out your form.\n "From: Contact Form <info@jocospayneuter.org>\r\n");

As you can see I only want the first and last name from the form. Wasn't sure how to add the last name into the text message. And of course I goofed it up trying to customize it to my needs.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

without any changes, I got the text but it did not contain the submitter info... I tried to change to make it match my form inputs but then I didn't get anything? oh well..I'll keep messing with it.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
