Reply-To option

[ghost]

Hello,

It's very useful to be able to add a Reply-To option in a form to allow replying to your visitors using the reply function of your webmail.

Is it possible to add an option the plugin component to be able to define the Reply-To option, you should be able to target a field of the form cause generally, you have to reply to the email address filled in the form.

Thanks

Hello @Alex360hd.

Are you referring to the notification or auto-response email?

[ghost]

I'm referring to the notification system. I don't want to send an auto-response email, but I want to be able to reply my customers by using the reply option of my webmail. Actually, the sender is the website, that's why we need a reply-to option to reply to customer directly. That option should allow form token as the reply-to value is generally the email filled by the customer in the same form, so we need a way to give to the component a variable corresponding to the email of the customer.

Hello,

I added the feature, but I'm new to git and I don't know how to create a pull request yet, so I will post the solution "the old way" !

Here is my SharedProperties.php that add the option in the component and the SendMail.php that take care of this new option when sending a notification.

If somebody can easily create a patch or something easy for the author to integrate, I promise to learn how to make a proper patch later, but no time ATM ^^

I recently saw the changelog when I updated my october install, I think it's already implemented.

Thank you for the same. But in that field what to add suppose for example we have email as an id in the form filled. Then We need to write just "email" in the reply to field. M i correct.

Yes, you have to fill the "name" attribute of your field. Some example :

<input type="email" name="email" />

The value to fill in the component settings for the reply-to option is : email

<input type="email" name="my_email" />

The value should be : my_email

etc..
