Hi there,

I have a question on $userEmail.
Default we need to add a from name in the form (Form Properties > User Email).
However, via PHP Email script, it's possible to overwrite this with another value. I am able to do this with

$userEmail = $subject;
$userEmail = $text;

This works perfectly.
However when I want to overwrite the $userEmail, this value doesn't overwrite.
$fromName = "new name";
$userEmail = $fromName;

Is there a reason, or am I doing something wrong.
Thanks a lot for feedback,
Kind regards

Hello,

I'm unsure how you're actually modifying this but the following is incorrect:

Try using this instead:

Of course also ensure that you're adding this in the according User Email designated scripting area (PHP Emails Scripts).

PS: note that some mailers might not allow using different a from email and name so overriding these may result in the email no longer sending.

Hi there,

thank you for quick reply.

This $fromName is just a variable - from a condition, and indeed is the new name. This chat shortens my text...
I have other variables in this condition that work (like the subject and the content)

if ($lang == "NL") { $fromName = "ABC"; $subject = "NL"; } else { $fromName = "DEF"; $subject = "FR"; };

$userEmail = $fromName; (so its $ userEmail = $fromName; without spaces)
$userEmail = $subject;
$userEmail =$content;

This scripting is added in Form Properties > PHP Email Scripts > Scripts called before the User Email is sent.
All other variables are working. only the $userEmail cannot be overwritten.
