Please replace the ??? with your data!

Hi Oliver,

I’m using cforms to replace the default WP form that offers
the user a choice to send a comment or send an email. I have several editors
that will be moderating all comments and posts and would like cforms to send
all editors (not the blog administrator) an email when a new comment or email arrives.

I listed all the editors email addresses (comma separated) on
the Admin Email Address(es) text field in the Core Form Admin / Email Options tab and
they do not receive any emails. No one I list there gets an email. Only the
blog administrator receives new comment notices and the post author receives
the emails. I switched their role to Administrator and still nothing. I can use
the BCC line but this only seems to work with emails, not comments. Comments
still go to the blog administrator.

The php mail() is supported on my server and test mail()
scripts successfully send mail using the mail(). I tried using an external SMTP
server and got the same results.

Is there a way to configure cforms to send all form data
whether it is a comment or an email to a defined group of email addresses as
suggested by the Admin Email Address(es) line?

Form fields are setup as:

Leave a Reply - New Fieldset

Your Name|err:Name – Comment Author

Email|err:Email – Author’s Email

Website|http:// - Author’s URL

Leave a Comment or Send us an Email?#Comment|0#Email|1 –
Select: Email/Comment

Comment|err:Please leave a message – Author’s Comment

Verification – Captcha verification (image)

Thanks,

Terence

cforms WP comment feature doesn't handle the comment notification, that's still the job of Wordpress and should be triggered by the 'new comment' event. cforms only sends emails if 'note to author' is checked with the above feature, or for regular forms.

WP comment feature: With a bit of code customization (there is another thread in this forum) you can get cforms to send out an email in addition to the comment that's being received, since it's hardcoded you can determine to whom this email is sent.

(This might become a future feture)

The 'note to author' will only send the users note/comment via email to the one author owning the post.
