I have built a site where entries are added to a channel called ‘users’. I’d like to use the various fields from the entry to fire off an email to the user when they are added, by me, to the system - for example, their first name, last name and their email address (which the email would be sent to).
I’m confident with PHP and the emailing part isn’t a problem (I’d probably just use the CodeIgniter or Zend Mail library anyway) - I’d just like to know if its possible to get this function to call upon an entry to a certain channel being submitted - and the best way to extract the variables from the entry and use them within the PHP email script…
If anyone knows of any plugins that work in a similar manner I’d love to see them (I’ve found an AutoTweet plugin but that has to be called via a cron script and NOT when an entry is submitted)
Many thanks,
Bloom
