To Changing The Email Subject

Changing the Email subject.

After creating a form you may want to change the email subject of the message. There are a variety of potential methods of doing this but in this page I will focus on editing the email subject per form.

Steps

1. After creating your form click on the edit form button.
2. With the setting tabs displayed, set "Email Notification" to No
3. Click on the "submit pieces" tab
4. In the "end submit" section of this tab click on the "custom" option button. This will display a text box to type in PHP code
5. Enter the code below

global $mosConfig_mailfrom, $mosConfig_fromname, $my;

$this->execPieceByName('ff_InitLib');

// Send profile to Client

$from = ff_getSubmit('fldReplyEmail');  //fldReplyEmmail is a field i defined when building a form for the person submitting the form to 
enter their email address in.  I simply pull this form value.

$fromname = ff_getSubmit('FirstName').' '.ff_getSubmit('Surname');  // FirstName and Surname are two fields of my form that I simply pull and concatenate, BUT this 
could be of course anything you want it to be.

$subject = ff_getSubmit('fldSubject');  // flSubject is a hidden field in my form which I have set its value to the subject I want to 
appear as my email subject.  I simply pull it.

$recipient = 'your@email.com';  // Here I hardcoded the email where I want the form to be submitted too.

// Create the Body format for use in e-mail.  I pull the below bit of code directly from the facile 
form processor php file,
// with the addition to ignore hidden fields when building the body of the email.  I did this 
because the Hidden fields
// in my form are control fields like fldSubject which I dont want to appear in the submitted form 
data.
foreach ($this->maildata as $data) {
     if ($data[_FF_DATA_TYPE] != 'Hidden Input') {
          $body .= $data[_FF_DATA_TITLE].": ".$data[_FF_DATA_VALUE].nl();
     }
}


$this->sendMail($from, $fromname, $recipient, $subject, $body);  // This line acutally emails off the form.

Remembering to substitute your own variables as you see appropriate.
