Hello,

Great plugin by the way. My questions is this. I have a mailing list (Dada Mail) already setup my main site. On a sub site I have installed the cformII plugin form on my page. I would like to have the data catured in the form to go to my mailing list. Ideally I would like it to work as it does on my main site but using cforms II as the form. Is there a simple way of doing it? Or can cformsII do it all? I hope this is the right place to ask but I have searched for the last 3 hours with no answers.

Thanking you in advance,

Dan

Thank you Oliver for the quick response. Maybe I didn't explain it right. I'm trying to merge the data captured through cfroms with my existing mailing list (Dada Mail)

I've tried using your suggestion but all I get is the  data in my email but not in the Dada Mail list. Receiving that way means I must copy to my Dada Mail list. That seems to be quite the work especially when I get no less than 50 subscribers a day. Maybe what I am asking is impossible. I just figure there must be a way to enter the data in the cform and somehow automatically receive the subscription confirmations from Dada Mail list and the data entered into that list.

Or I see that setting up my cforms a file name "list" is in the site dir. Is that where all the input data from the forms is stored? If so how can I assess it?

Thanks in advance,

Dan

patience my friend…

not sure what "merging" means, can you give an example?

what data is being input and who receives what…

I've tried using your suggestion but all I get is the  data in my email but not in the Dada Mail list. Receiving that way means I must copy to my Dada Mail list.

you can use the admin email & BCC option to send the form data to different recipients.

I just figure there must be a way to enter the data in the cform and somehow automatically receive the subscription confirmations from Dada Mail list and the data entered into that list.

so you want user to fill in the form and be subscribed to the mailing list? and at the same time forward the form's content to the mailing list for distribution?

This indeed requires more extensive configuration and possible custom code. Since I'm not sure how Dada's forms work, the code they produce to register a subscriber and how they assemble the email going out with possibly custom links for subscription details/de-subscription.

I recommend getting a web developer to support this since I can't provide this level of support due to strong time constraints.

It allows you to directly forward your form input to an alternative web page that takes your forms' input (as if it was submitted from their own form).
