I am building a custom module using hook_mail_alter in Drupal 8 which stops the system from sending emails to a selected email address.
My current module stops sending any emails for some reasons. I need help to figure out why.
<?php
use Drupal\Core\Mail\MailManagerInterface;
/**
* Implements hook_mail_alter
*/
function terminate_emails_mail_alter(&$message) {
//filter by email address, which is not working
if($message['to'] = 'example#gmail.com') {
//stop sending emails
$message['send'] = FALSE;
}
}
This is funny. Check your if condition:
if($message['to'] = 'example#gmail.com') {
You are using assignment operator, not comparison. Use double equal-to (==)
if($message['to'] == 'example#gmail.com') {
What you are doing here, is assign something, and your condition will always be true

I am experimenting on botpress slots . There is the new option called as slot which will validate the user input . However I am not able to find resources which will validate the user input.
The bot must validate the use input as a phone number using slot feature or any other without use of external api ?
Is this possible ?
for example:
If the user inputs a valide phone number the flow will proceed.
else if use enters invalid phone number the flow will ask to re enter a valid phone number.
I have tried multiple things but had no luck finding the proper documentation/ tutorial regarding it.
I think you can use a custom action to achieve this. A custom action for validating mobile number may look like:
const baseMessage = {
type: 'text',
markdown: false
}
/**
* check if phone number is valid
* #title validate phone number
* #category Validation
* #author Your name
* #param {string} phone - phone number
*/
const validateNumber = async phone => {
var phoneRegex = /^\d{10}$/
if (phone.match(phoneRegex)) {
temp.phone_validation = 'success'
} else {
temp.phone_validation = 'error'
}
}
return validateNumber(args.phone)
You can call the custom action in your validation flow and redirect user accordingly
I am writing a code on Google Apps Script to send an email every time there is a new announcement made in my site. Here is the code for reference:
var url_of_announcements_page = "https://sites.google.com/announcements";
var who_to_email = "emailaccount";
function emailAnnouncements(){
var page = SitesApp.getPageByUrl(url_of_announcements_page);
if(page.getPageType() == SitesApp.PageType.ANNOUNCEMENTS_PAGE){
var announcements = page.getAnnouncements({ start: 0,
max: 10,
includeDrafts: false,
includeDeleted: false});
announcements.reverse();
for(var i in announcements) {
var ann = announcements[i];
var updated = ann.getLastUpdated().getTime();
if (updated > PropertiesService.getScriptProperties().getProperty("last-update")){
var options = {};
options.htmlBody = Utilities.formatString("<h1><a href='%s'>%s</a></h1>%s", ann.getUrl(), ann.getTitle(), ann.getHtmlContent());
MailApp.sendEmail(who_to_email, "Announcement - '"+ann.getTitle()+"'", ann.getTextContent()+"\n\n"+ann.getUrl(), options);
PropertiesService.getScriptProperties().setProperty('last-update',updated);
}
}
}
}
function setup(){
PropertiesService.getScriptProperties().setProperty('last-update',new Date().getTime());
}
I would like to know if it is possible to add my gmail signature to the code. As when I send it with the script my signature is removed. Do I have to make my signature in the code or am i able to get my signature from gmail and automatically insert it at the end? Here is the line for the formatting of the email:
MailApp.sendEmail(who_to_email, "Announcement - '"+ann.getTitle()+"'", ann.getTextContent()+"\n\n"+ann.getUrl(), options);
Apps Script cannot access user's signature: there is no method for that in MailApp, or GmailApp, or even in Gmail API accessible via Advanced Google Services.
In principle, you could use GmailApp to get a recent outgoing message and search its text for the signature contained after the last -- found in message body. But this requires giving the script a lot more access (GmailApp can access, forward and delete existing email, unlike MailApp) and is error-prone (when text parsing fails, you might end up with an embarrassing fragment of text in your message).
Just append it directly:
var signature = "\n\n--\nFirstName LastName";
// ...
MailApp.sendEmail(... +signature, options);
(By the way, Gmail web interface and Gmail mobile app have different user signatures in general, so having another one for script-generated messages doesn't seem unusual.)
This question is related to this Check email template after meta tag replacement and before sending in Mandrill.
I would like to know if there is a way to configure the Mandrill to send an email only when all the merge tags in the email template have been replaced. Is this possible?
AFAIK this isn't possible to configure with Mandrill.
You can (maybe should) perform this using the API however - take advantage of the render method to pre-render the outgoing email, and then look for any un-replaced fields.
function has_merge_tags($string)
{
return ( strpos("|*", $string) === false AND strpos("*|", $string) === false);
}
function send_email($template_code, $merge_fields)
{
$mandrill = new Mandrill(APIKEY);
// pre-render the template with the merged fields
$result = $mandrill->templates->render($name, array(), $merge_fields);
if (has_merge_tags($result['html']))
{
// throw exception, log it, whatever
}
really_send_email($result['html']);
}

I've setup a form using googledocs. I just want to have the actual data entered into the form emailed to me, as opposed to the generic response advising that the form has been completed.
I have no skill or experience with code etc, but was sure i could get this sorted. I've spent hours+hours and haven't had any luck.
My form is really basic.it has 5 fields. 4 of which are just text responses, and one multiple choice.
I found this tute online (http://www.labnol.org/internet/google-docs-email-form/20884/) which i think sums up what i'm trying to do, but have not been able to get it to work.
from this site i entered the following code:
function sendFormByEmail(e)
{
var email = "reports.mckeir#gmail.com";
var subject = "Google Docs Form Submitted";
var s = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var headers = s.getRange(1,1,1,s.getLastColumn()).getValues()[0];
var message = "";
for(var i in headers)
message += headers[i] + ' = '+ e.namedValues[headers[i]].toString() + "\n\n";
MailApp.sendEmail(email, subject, message);
}
To this, i get the following response: ->
Your script, Contact Us Form Mailer, has recently failed to finish successfully. A summary of the failure(s) is shown below. To configure the triggers for this script, or change your setting for receiving future failure notifications, click here.
The script is used by the document 100% Club.
Details:
Start Function Error Message Trigger End
12/3/12 11:06 PM sendFormByEmail TypeError: Cannot call method "toString" of undefined. (line 12) formSubmit 12/3/12 11:06 PM
Is anyone able to help shed some light on this for me? I'm guessing i'm not including some data neeeded, but i honestly have no clue.

You have to setup app script to forward the data as email.
I'll point to the comment above that solved it for me: https://stackoverflow.com/a/14576983/134335
I took that post a step further:
I removed the normal notification. The app script makes that generic text redundant and useless now
I modified the script to actually parse the results and build the response accordingly.
function sendFormByEmail(e)
{
var toEmail = "changeme";
var name = "";
var email = "";
// Optional but change the following variable
// to have a custom subject for Google Docs emails
var subject = "Google Docs Form Submitted";
var message = "";
// The variable e holds all the form values in an array.
// Loop through the array and append values to the body.
var s = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var headers = s.getRange(1,1,1,s.getLastColumn()).getValues()[0];
// Credit to Henrique Abreu for fixing the sort order
for(var i in headers) {
if (headers[i] = "Name") {
name = e.namedValues[headers[i]].toString();
}
if (headers[i] = "Email") {
email = e.namedValues[headers[i]].toString();
}
if (headers[i] = "Subject") {
subject = e.namedValues[headers[i]].toString();
}
if (headers[i] = "Message") {
message = e.namedValues[headers[i]].toString();
}
}
// See https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference/mail/mail-app#sendEmail(String,String,String,Object)
var mailOptions = {
name: name,
replyTo: email,
};
// This is the MailApp service of Google Apps Script
// that sends the email. You can also use GmailApp here.
MailApp.sendEmail(toEmail, subject, message, mailOptions);

}
The script utilized in the example is extremely generic but very resilient to change because the message is built as a key/value pair of the form fields submitted.
If you use my script you'll have to tweak the for loop if statements to match your fields verbatim. You'll also want to edit the toEmail variable.
Thanks again for the question and answers. I was about to ditch Google Forms as the generic response was never enough for what I was trying to do.
Lastly, in response to the actual problem above "toString of undefined" specifically means one of the form fields was submitted as blank. If I had to guess, I would say the author only used this for forms where all the fields were required or a quick undefined check would've been put in place.
Something like the following would work:
for(var i in headers) {
var formValue = e.namedValues[headers[i]];
var formValueText = "";
if (typeof(formValue) != "undefined") {
formValueText = formValue.toString();
}
message += headers[i] + ' = '+ formvalueText + "\n\n";
}
I haven't tested this precisely but it's a pretty standard way of making sure the object is defined before trying methods like toString() that clearly won't work.
This would also explain Jon Fila's answer. The script blindly assumes all of the header rows in the response are sent by the form. If any of the fields aren't required or the spreadsheet has fields that are no longer in the form, you'll get a lot of undefined objects.
The script could've been coded better but I won't fault the author as it was clearly meant to be a proof of concept only. The fact that they mention the replyTo correction but don't give any examples on implementing it made it perfectly clear.
If this is a Google Form, do you have any extra columns in your spreadsheet that are not on the form? If you delete those extra columns then it started working for me.
You don't need to use a script. Simply go to Tools >> Notification Rules on your Google Spreadsheet. There you can change the settings to receive an email with your desired information every time the document is changed.
I noticed the following bug:
When I add an address to a customer using the admin backend, or if I change an address and i save the customer, the Magento Costumer AccountController sends a standard email to the updated customer. The email template used is the template for the customer event "confirmed". This always happens when I update the customer.
Had someone the same problem or a solution for this? I can't understand why magento sends an email for this event...
Class: Mage_Adminhtml_CustomerController extends Mage_Adminhtml_Controller_Action
Methode: saveAction()
Solution: It's a core bug from older versions. The condition for sending a mail after saving a customer uses isset($sendPassToEmail). But if you notice, the sendPassToEmail variable is always set and has the values true or false. Because of the isset() the condition is always true and an email will be send every time a customer is saved.
...
$sendPassToEmail = false;
// force new customer active
if ($isNewCustomer) {
$customer->setPassword($data['account']['password']);
$customer->setForceConfirmed(true);
if ($customer->getPassword() == 'auto') {
$sendPassToEmail = true;
$customer->setPassword($customer->generatePassword());
}
}
Mage::dispatchEvent('adminhtml_customer_prepare_save', array(
'customer' => $customer,
'request' => $this->getRequest()
));
$customer->save();
// send welcome email
if ($customer->getWebsiteId() && (!empty($data['account']['sendemail']) || isset($sendPassToEmail))) {
$storeId = $customer->getSendemailStoreId();
if ($isNewCustomer) {
$customer->sendNewAccountEmail('registered', '', $storeId);
}
// confirm not confirmed customer
else if ((!$customer->getConfirmation())) {
$customer->sendNewAccountEmail('confirmed', '', $storeId);
}
}
