Question

A co-worker wants to use a form to generate a new TWIki page . That's easy.

She would also like to send out an email to tell people the form has been submitted.

We have MailerContrib installed. Is that our best choice?

Answer

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

You should be able to use SendEmailPlugin. Add a hidden form field with name redirectto and script sendemail. For example:

<input type="hidden" name="redirectto" value="%SCRIPTURL{sendemail}%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%?from=me@someplace.com;to=you@elsewhere.com;subject=topic+created;body=topic+created..." />

But the email will also be sent if the user clicks Cancel.
