The quick alternative I see is to actually use a mailto: link,
especially if they're emailing a link and not the whole page. Something
like this should work:
<a
href="mailto:?subject=<r:escape_html:title/>&body=http://mysite.com<r:url
/>">Share this page</a>
That will set the email subject to the title and the body to a link to
the page. You could even make this a snippet or part of the layout to
reuse it on all pages.

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out the best approach to solving a problem. I'm
building a site for a charity fund raising org in radiant 0.7.1 which
will have lots of user profile pages on which users will accept
donations and promote their cause. I want to give each user a "Share
this page" link that will allow someone to provide an email, and the
site will mail that person a link to the particular user's page.
Doing this on an individual page-by-page basis is easy, as I have
mailers working. I don't want to have to create tons of mailer pages,
as they're tedious. I have a few ideas of how I'd like it to work but
haven't been able to either make any progress or find references for
how to proceed. My thoughts are:
Put a mailer in a layout (or a snippet): Would be great, but I have
only found the mailer extension to work with, and I don't have page
parts in layouts or snippets. I've found no docs on how to make it
work w/o page parts.
Set up a page as a template and clone it. This is not exactly
elegant, but it would work
Set up a generic "Share this page" mailer and use the referrer to know
which user profile page to send. I like this idea as it's simple, but
I'm not seeing a way in radiant to grab the referring URL. Is there a
"referrer" analog to "parent"?
Am I approaching this in entirely the wrong way?
Thanks,
Rich
