Formit emailConvertNewlines not in autoresponder

Formit's "emailConvertNewlines" works fine in the email rcvd by the site-administrator.

unfortunately there is not such a property in the autoResponder

1 or is there?

-tried "&fiarConvertNewlines='1' " no luck

2 alternatively; is there a way to include the sender of f.i. a Contact-form in the "emailTo" command?

Looking at the code, I don't see any way to do it without hacking snippet code.

You could try changing the line 71 of the autoresponder snippet from this:



to this:

Dear Bob, it works!!

thanks a lot.

if this is as simple as it is I donot understand why most sites do not have this included....

thanks again

You could try changing the line 71 of the autoresponder snippet from this:

$message = $formit->getChunk($tpl,$placeholders);

to this:

$message = nl2br($formit->getChunk($tpl,$placeholders));

The autoresponder code was created as an afterthought, and as far as I know, it was never updated. It should definitely include newline conversion as an option.

Another way to go, BTW, is to put br or p tags in the Tpl chunk. Unlike my suggestion above, that won't be overwritten if you upgrade or reinstall the Login extra.
