Please replace the ??? with your data!

Your URL: none

Thanks for a great plugin. I am wondering where the best place is to inject some code that will encrypt the email body text. I know how to do it using my-functions.php, but if I go that route than I have to do a lot more formatting than I want to do, so I'd like to just be able to inject that encryption code wherever the email body is being created by cforms. Problem is, I can't find the correct file that cforms ultimately uses to write the email body. I've gone into a bunch of files to try to track it down, but when I comment out where i THINK the body is being writen and replace it with some text like "this is the body" as a test, I still receive the regular email… so my test text isn't getting read in these files: lib_nonajax.php, cforms_phpmailer.php, class.phpmailer.php). Can you point me in the right direction?

you'd have to go into lib_ajax and lib_nonajax and modify the email parts. Check for

$sentadmin = cforms_phpmailer( &

$sentadmin = @mail(

calls.

Thanks Oliver. I'll give that a try and I can drop a note back if you think it would be of use to anyone here.

Here is how I was able to encrypt the body of the admin email, in case anyone is interested:

1) Got gpg_encrypt.php from here and made sure it was in my PHP include path:

http://business-php.com/opensource/gpg_encrypt/

1) Added this line to near the top of lib_nonajax.php:

$GPG_ENCRYPT = TRUE;

2) Added these lines to lib_nonajax.php, around line 285. Right under the closing bracket which has the comment "for all fields":

if ($GPG_ENCRYPT == TRUE)

{

require('gpg_encrypt.php');
$gpg = gpg_encrypt("${formdata}", 'FULL PATH/TO/GPG' , "KEYRING DIRECTORY", 'KEY ID');
$formdata = $gpg[0];

}

Note that there is no error-checking, which is poor programming practice. You could probably add that in by doing something like this instead (untested):

if ($GPG_ENCRYPT == TRUE)
{
    require('gpg_encrypt.php');
    $gpg = gpg_encrypt("${formdata}", 'FULL PATH/TO/GPG' , "KEYRING DIRECTORY", 'KEY ID');
    if("$gpg[2]" == '0')
    {
        $formdata = $gpg[0];
    }
    else
    {
        echo("<pre>\\n$gpg[1]</pre>");
        exit();
    }
}

What this does is encrypt the body of the non-ajax admin email. The reason I edited lib_nonajax.php instead of using my-functions.php to do it is that the admin email is so nicely formatted and I just didn't have the time to figure out how to duplicate that in my-functions.php.
