Back on the list...
I got this working with help from Dan...
I already had an aboutus page.
So I created an aboutus.contactus page with the following:
! Contact Form
[if equal '{sitemail}' '']You must register a site email address on your
site config page to use this form.
[else]Please use the form below to send us your message:
<box>
[form][t]
[r]
[c width=100px]Your Email:
[c][text from "{~email}" size=40]
[r]
[c]Subject:
[c][text subject size=40]
[r]
[c top]Message:
[c][box body rows=6 cols=35][box]
[r]
[c]
[c right][submit "SEND MAIL"]
[t]
[session to "{sitemail}"]
[session mail]
[form]
</box>
[if]
The key was the site.auth.mail page!!
I edited site.auth.mail and added:
aboutus.contact: @guest
and I can now send email from admin, any logged in user and any guest user
which was the primary purpose.
UPDATED BOLTWIRE PAGE:
I've added the site.auth.mail info to the boltwire site page
http://boltwire.com/index.php?p=docs.concepts.mail
QUESTIONS... of course...
I have three questions about expanding the form.
I thought that I could add something like
[session nextpage=aboutus]
just after the [session mail] so that after submission, it would go to the
aboutus page.... however I either misunderstood what it does or it didn't
work.
I could not find a good example of how the nextpage worked.
Also, I would like to add additional info to the email that is not
necessarily provided by the visitor.
1) the ability to add the IP and hostname (via the plugin web_visitor_info)
so that when the email is sent, that info is included.
ex...
IP: {wv-remote_addr} [{wv-remote_host}]
2) I would like to add to the subject unique text so that I know where it is
coming from. If the user enters in Subject: Looking for help, have the
subject end up being sent as something like
Subject: WebForm - Looking for help
3) lastly, the email verification example on the Boltwire site didn't work.
Is there a working example. While not actually verifying the email address,
at least the format could be validated.
