The email is sent to the board email. You don't need to select a group, but if you do, ALL users from selected group will receive the email. I'm not sure what 'everyone' means, but f you have 500 members on a selected group, 500 emails will be fired. You can also add emails instead of groups.

This works since version 1, was retested before update the file here and never changed.

None of the test e-mails came through without a user group selected though, that's what I'm saying.

[Adriano Faria]

I'll retest it.

It worked as I described, no problem: http://www.screencast.com/t/Jj9aN9R4

I suggest you to uninstall, maybe remove files from your FTP and reinstall it.

[Joey_M]

Okay, I'll give this a try - thanks for checking.

IPS changed from:

	/**
	 * @brief	Wrap in our main template wrapper
	 */
	public $useWrapper		= TRUE;

to:

	/**
	 * @brief	Should the default wrapper template be used?
	 */
	protected $useWrapper = TRUE;

Let me see how to fix this.

@Adriano F is it possible to include this contacting staff via the messaging system as well as sending out emails? It would be great to have a notification appear whilst actually on the site, without having to check emails.

This is an enhancement of tge default contact feature, which also only sebd emails.

Not sure. Maybe in a future version.

Couple of suggestions please.

When you setup a department in the ACP there is a field for description, but this doesn't seem to be used anywhere on the either front-end or ACP.  Could there be an option to show this on the front-end to guide users on what each department covers?

When completing a in the front end if I put my cursor in the subject field I can then tab into the email field.  However if I tab again the form loses focus, is it possible to set the tab sequence to go through to the editor?

Many thanks

Fair.

That should be handled automatically by the form helper. The sequence is basically the sequence of available fields in the form.

Does it happen in another areas, like topic post screen, PMs, etc?

Yes you're right, it's the same with PMs, this seems to be a limitation of the general form helper

Report as a bug, who knows. 

[BN_IT_Support]

Was just on it:

 

[PedroNL]

When it goes to general would that e-mail all users in the forum that are members?

Not sure what you mean by " goes to general".  Anyway, it will send email for those users who are allowed to receive... and they are set on the departments.

I have just installed this plugin and I have the following issues:

- it does not attach custom fields to the emails, only the main fields like: department, subject, email & messsage. The 3 custom fields I added were completely ignored to the emails.
- it posts a message in the specified forum, but the message is empty. (user has permissions to post)

I'm using 4.1.13.2  ... not sure if the widget might need an upgrade.

 

I also had a problem with the url since my template was using   url/index.php/contact/   instead of  indes.php?/contacus/   I could solve that redirecting the FURL. I don't think it is related, but I wanted to point it out just in case.

As suggestion, It would be nice to have a text field to provide some instructions to users, like " Do not use this form to report posts etc. | If you are reporting a thread, please don't forget to attach the URL etc."

True. Just tested it and it's blank. Need to see what has changed.

The default FURL for this app is: http://www.sosinvision.com.br/ips4/index.php?/contactus/

The system won't allow me to use an already existing FURL (contact).

I'll work on a fix soon.

I will PM you with a tiny change required to make the post appears. I won't post it here because this forum now is open to guests, which means that people who didn't buy it will also have access to the fix... so if you bought it, send a PM and I'll send the fix.

I will work on Extra Fields stuff during the week.

I'm adding a translateable message as a setting:

It will appear on top in the form.
