    Just added eForm version 1.4.1 to the repository. You can find it here

    Besides squashing some annoying bugs some powerfull new events have been added. The changes are:

    • Fixed: inconsistent casing in event names. All events params are now in the form &eFormOn...(although the &eformOn... will still work)
    • Fixed: If subject is a form field the value is cleared
    • Fixed: Missing language file produces fatal error. (Will now generate a debug message if debug is on)
    • Fixed: Missing ’replyto’ in AddAddressToMailer function.
    • Fixed: Erroneous closing slash (/) being added in <option ..> tags
    • Fixed: No whitespace before ’selected’ and ’checked’ attributes
    • Updated: Debug placeholder is now automatically added to form and thankyou template. It is not auto-added to the email message to avoid sending out sensitive info
    • New: Extra event parameter &eFormOnValidate (triggered after eForm validation has occurred)
    • New: Extra event parameter &eFormOnBeforeFormMerge (triggered when and before form is displayed)
    • New: Extra event parameter &eFormOnBeforeFormParse (triggered after template(s) are loaded and before they are parsed)
    • Updated: Event &eFormOnBeforeMailSent - when setting the $fields[’validationmesage’] in the event function eForm will now ’print’ the form with a validation message (thanks to Raymond)

      Alright! I was just about to look for the latest eForm. I have a ShopX form that’s just a-waiting to make use of those new function calls...

          eform.xml? (And thanks for another great release!)

          Ah, yes.. that one slipped through when making the zip file. It’s not really necessary. I’m working on the timyMCE snippet plugin again and I want to try using the xml file to import settings into the plugin. More about that (much) later.

            Is anyone having issues with 1.4.1 &thankyou param? I copied DIRECTLY all 3 chunks, and my 1.4 snippet call from an alternate site, and everything works fine except the fact that I do not get the Thank You upon form submittal. Caching is disabled, and this is my call:

            [!eForm? &noemail=`true` &formid=`contact` &eFormOnBeforeMailSent=`eForm2db` &tpl=`contactform` &thankyou=`contactthanks` !]


            :’(

            Only difference is this new site is using 1.4.1 vs 1.4??

              Confirmed!

              You’ve hit a bug. Here’s a replacement that should get you going.
              It also fixes the problem with spaces in the sessionVars parameters as mention in this post

                  Can I get a rousing cheer of "Hooray for open source software!" going?

                      TobyL,

                      What is your recommendation for the most efficieasdfnt way to Redirect a user to the Thank You page, rather just including it via ID/ChunkName?

                      <puts_on_dunce_hat>
                      Doh! ...I should know better to read the docs first. How could I forget about &gotoid?
                      </puts_on_dunce_hat>
