[Plugin: Contact Form 7] Sending Attachments, Without User Upload

  • Currently, the contact form sends me an email, as well as sends the user a confirmation email.

    Is it possible to include an attachment to the user? Specifically, if I were running a charity for an event, and they registered using Contact Form 7, would it be possible to send a pledge form and an informational pdf to them with the confirmation email?

    Note: This is unrelated to the file attachment tags, I am not trying to get people to upload an attachment to send to me, I am trying to send an attachment back to them.

    Thank you for your time, everyone! I hope to get this resolved soon.

  • Ok, well I guess I just needed to tell myself to take a break and then come back to it when I was fresh. So… I worked it out. Daniele’s instructions for Firefox, Firebug, FirePHP and the wp-firePHP plugin are fine. I just didn’t understand where to put the fb($variable_or_string);, so thought I needed to install the FirePHP library (not needed because wp-firePHP actually handles all that for you). Once the FirePHP Firefox extension and wp-firePHP are installed and activated, you can put fb($cf7); in your theme’s functions.php file and I think might work best inside and on the last line of Daniele’s function create_unique_coupon_and_send_it (placing it outside the function returns a NULL value for me). Then loading the site and filling the form with firebug open gave the debugging values I was expecting.

    The debugging was definitely very helpful. That’s how I discovered that I needed to modify Daniele’s code from $uploads[‘path’] to $uploads[‘basedir’] because I have month and year turned on. More info is here in the WordPress Codex Function Ref for wp_upload_dir Basically, path in this case returned …/uploads/2012/04 whereas basedir returns just …/uploads which is where my coupon folder is. I hope that makes sense and helps others who might be stuck for the same reason. Thank you again Daniele.

    Helped me a lot! Many thanks!
