But the forms have an Admin Notification so i'm not sure why you'd need to send the User Notification to you also. pattam on "Best way to make a tell a friend form?" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/best-way-to-make-a-tell-a-friend-form#post-36302 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 02:37:07 +0000 pattam 36302@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ So you could use this same method to also create a form to send have a customer send a product enquiry email to yourself? Would you simply have a hidden To Email addressed to yourself?

If you do it properly it should work. You also need to test to see if BCC works at all by entering placeholder values to test the BCC functionality. Some web servers don't allow BCC via the php sendmail. azsmall23 on "Best way to make a tell a friend form?" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/best-way-to-make-a-tell-a-friend-form#post-33468 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 16:35:02 +0000 azsmall23 33468@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Carl, I'm trying the BCC method with the merged fields but no luck. Any developments or help on this would be appreciated. popbox on "Best way to make a tell a friend form?" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/best-way-to-make-a-tell-a-friend-form#post-27074 Mon, 06 Jun 2011 06:16:01 +0000 popbox 27074@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Thanks, I'm sure a lot of customers would love this feature. Would be great if you could include it in the next version. All the best, Anthony Carl Hancock on "Best way to make a tell a friend form?" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/best-way-to-make-a-tell-a-friend-form#post-27064 Mon, 06 Jun 2011 00:41:33 +0000 Carl Hancock 27064@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ There is no field for entering multiple email addresses. You would have to add multiple email fields to your form, and then use the BCC field on the User Notification and enter the Merge Tag for each email field into the BCC field of the Notifications. To get the Merge Tag for each field you use the "Insert Form Field" drop down in the Notification Message field and then copy-n-paste it. You may run into a problem if not all the email addresses are filled out. It's not really designed to do a Send To A Friend that involves sending to lots of Friends as that isn't what it is designed to do. It's easy to send to one, but it is a little more complicated to send to multiple. We do plan on making this easier with planned enhancements. popbox on "Best way to make a tell a friend form?" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/best-way-to-make-a-tell-a-friend-form#post-27059 Sun, 05 Jun 2011 23:10:37 +0000 popbox 27059@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hi Carl, thanks for your reply. I have the form built at <a href="http://no2mininginpalawan.com/tell-a-friend/" rel="nofollow">http://no2mininginpalawan.com/tell-a-friend/</a> but I'm still not clear on how to create the field that allows the user to enter multiple email addresses. All I need is for it to work like this one: <a href="http://www.freedomtomarry.org/page/share/spreadtheword" rel="nofollow">http://www.freedomtomarry.org/page/share/spreadtheword</a> If you could clarify how I can make that happen, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks again for your help.

This will output the full path HTTP URL to the post or page the form was submitted from. Customize the field labels and the notification message to suit your needs. popbox on "Best way to make a tell a friend form?" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/best-way-to-make-a-tell-a-friend-form#post-27007 Sun, 05 Jun 2011 09:13:48 +0000 popbox 27007@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ What is the best way to make a tell a friend form?
