[SOLVED] YAMS & eform : not sending e-mail - My Forums

Yes, PMS hasn’t been able to continue development and support. But for 99.9% of the time, the latest stable version works very well.

Any application is going to have users with different requirements, and sometimes it just becomes impossible for one person to continue adding and modifying features to try to satisfy everybody. I know; I’ve had to abandon a few applications I found useful and shared, then had a constant stream of requests (and the occasional more insistent, if not downright rude, demand) that eventually were more than I could handle.

Ok i found how to make it work, with 1 snippet (eform), 2 tpl for form and 2 tpl for Report.

here is the solution:

eform call for every language :

[!eForm? &language=`(yams_mname)` &formid=`eFormContactForm_(yams_id)` &to=`email` &tpl=`eFormContactForm_(yams_id)` &report=`eFormContactReport_(yams_id)`!]

Chunk "eFormContactForm_fr" for tpl in french

if you use alias from YAMS, as i do in this case, you muste write form action="(yams_doc)". Otherwise you can use action="[~[*id*]~]" (as i read it on this thread : http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php?topic=64814.0)

.......

Chunk "eFormContactForm_en" for tpl in english

.......

Chunk "eFormContactReport_en" for Report in english

Here is a mail from the website XXX, from english form
you can write whatever you want, just put the fields like [+name+]

Chunk "eFormContactReport_fr" for Report in french

Voici un mail depuis le site XXX, écrit avec le formulaire en français.
you can write whatever you want, just put the fields like [+name+]

And that’s all !
thanks again for helping me !
this forum is great, so when i can help a little bit...
do you think it’s possible to add this in the YAMS documentation, as a little example?

When I have forms in YAMS-based sites, I don’t use the yams variables in the eForm calls or tpls. I just use a different chunk tpl for each language, and have an appropriate eForm snippet for each language. I know that is not as flexible, but I’ve never had a problem with it.

What I meant by having an eForm working in a non-YAMS page was to see if eForm works on your site at all; it may have nothing at all to do with YAMS.

What is the generated form’s action attribute, is that as it should be? What happens if the resource is uncached?

I see you have the hidden field already; if you just make sure the form’s id attribute matches your formid parameter eForm will generate the hidden field at the bottom of the form by itself. In any case, is the generated form’s formid field attributes and value correct?

Can you use a standard eForm on a non-multilanguage page? Try using the &debug=`1` parameter and see if there is anything that looks wrong in the debug display.
