Results from contact-form

I would like the results from the contact-form emailed to a certain email-address (a @gmail.com address). Can I just add a *$recipient="[email protected]"; *somewhere? If so, where do I add this?

If this is not the way to go, then what is?

In your browser look in
admin-> configuration -> email settings

Thank you for your quick response. If you mean E-mail Options, I've already tried this.

These are my settins there (this is for a different email-account):

Is there anything wrong here? With these settings I do not receive the results of the contact-form.

it should be
Name < email address>, and you can put more than one email address there

I have changes every email-address in E-mail Options from *[email protected] *to Wendy [email protected], but still nothing.

Also, shouldn't there be a Success page (something like; the form has been sent). Whenever I click Send it just sends me back to the home page. The URL then looks like this:

http://www.visionelectronics.nl/index.php?main_page=contact&action=send

The successful send should go to:
/index.php?main_page=contact_us&action=success

With a successful send message on the page ...

Your's appears to go to:
/index.php?main_page=contact&action=send

Did you change something on this to go to a different page?

I cannot read your page to know what it is saying ... :cry:

My Send-button does take me to /index.php?main_page=contact&action=send.

To my knowledge I didn't change anything to indicate it should go there instead of to /index.php?main_page=contact&action=success.

Which php-file should I check to change this?

I am not sure as Zen Cart goes to the contact_us and not something called contact ... so it makes me think something has changed, but that could be caused by a lot of things ...

this should go to
/index.php?main_page=contact&action=success

Let's start at the beginning:

wendydej:

I would like the results from the contact-form emailed to a certain email-address (a @gmail.com address).

Why?

You went on to give an example showing multiple email addresses.

Are you saying you want the results to go to two places ?

Or are you only saying that your contact-us emails aren't being delivered?

Or do they get delivered fine for a non-Gmail address but fail when sending to gMail accounts?

Yes, thank you Merlinpa1969, Ajeh already established this.

The question; which php-file do I have to change?

DrByte; I'm saying that nothing gets delivered anywhere, whether it's a @gmail account of any other account. We've already established that it apparently has something to do with the fact that my Send button sends me to /index.php?main_page=contact&action=send while it should be /index.php?main_page=contact&action=success. So how do I solve this?

After some searching, I found the file /includes/modules/pages/contact_us/header_php.php. I think this might be the file in which to indicatie the whole send/success business. I'll post it here, maybe someone can tell me where the problem might be. I have edited this before in order to add more fields.

I have edited this before in order to add more fields.
If you put back the original file, does it work properly?

Your changes to the header_php.php file appear to be fine.

You likely also made changes to the tpl_contact_us_default.php file. What are the contents of your customized file?

My tpl_contact_us_default.php looks liks this:

Your template is using:```php

instead of the usualphp

Thus, you are sending the form to the non-existent "contact" page, which has no intelligence (because it doesn't exist) on how to process the form.

DrByte; thank you soooooooooo much! This worked great! Now I get a success-page and almost immediately I got the message in my mailbox.

Thank you!!!!!:laugh:

it's amazing what weird things happen when you break pattern while making customizations !

Glad it's working again.
