Email, with attachments $_POST problems, with multipart

  • Hi

    I have posted the tutorial https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/4897/s ... construct2

    Sending basic email works fine from C2 with my method in the tutorial above, but someone has requested if you can do email with attachments.

    Now, I have got this working with PHP alone, multipart header and base 64, but when It comes to getting the $_POST from c2 it comes out with an array() blank.

    I can't figure out what is wrong.

    I will post a screen of the code below, maybe someone can help?

    If you subsitute the $_POST for an email address..i.e..."someones@somewhere.com" it works.

    Obviously, We can do this with 3rd party plugins (mandril etc), but reliance on 3rd party is always suspect to future change

    cheers sizcoz

  • I am a bit stumbled on what exactly your issue is, is it to get the Post value "email_to" be an mail address when posting from Construct 2?

    Or is it to read the output of the php in construct 2?

    If the issue is to get construct 2 to send out an mail address we will need to see the construct 2 part.

    But yeah a bit stumbled on what exactly is the issue, hopefully you can clear that up for me and il be more than happy to help you out!

    Its getting the $_POST['email_to'] variable from c2, it does not seem to appear when I run the php script, I am using the same method that I used in the tutorial I posted, the capx is here, https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/4897/s ... construct2,

    I can send an email without attachment with the method in my tutorial, and send an email with attachment with this script above, if I change the POST value to, for instance "sizcoz@somewhere.com";, but the POST variable from c2 does not show?

    Many thanks in advance for your reply

  • Hi guys! Attachment method works? It's important for me.. Thanks!

  • sizcoz Thanks for the tutorial. Does it work on an app? The tutorial looks like it supports on a website.

    I'm completely new for this, so this might be a silly question.
