Email setup with reCAPTCHA

Archive

I’ve set up reCAPTCHA Contact plugin to the point that I can see a contact page, am able to input a name, and email, and a message, and click submit but I’m wondering whereto configure how the actual email gets sent, and to what address.

Hi, I took a look. I think it’s all explained in the plugin README file

Thanks for the confirmation. I believe I was getting hung up when formatting my own users/languages/languages.yaml. In the default languages.yaml each ID’d by an abbreviation, like en:, es:, and it:.

So, the top of your custom language code should look like this:

RECAPTCHACONTACT:
    FORM_LEGEND: "Contact me"

And not:

en:
  RECAPTCHACONTACT:
    FORM_LEGEND: "Contact me"

I also named my custom languages file. So, basically: users/languages/en.yaml. Also, default language in user/config/plugins/recaptchacontact.yaml is set to default_lang: en.

I’m trying to configure this plugin, so far unsuccessfully. In the readme.md files says:

“For the reCAPTCHA to work you have to copy recaptchacontact.yaml in your /user/config/plugins folder and set your keys.”

So should it copy that file to /user/config/plugins, so it becomes ‘/user/config/plugins/recaptchacontact.yaml’ ? i still have the JS error:

recaptcha__en.js:113 Uncaught Error: Missing required parameters in RecaptchaOptions: sitekey

Or sould i copy to ‘/user/config/recaptchacontact.yaml’ ? The same error

Tried also to copy the string to the .md file with the configs of the form. Same thing

Any ideas?

you copy user/plugins/recaptchacontact/recaptchacontact.yaml to user/config/plugins/recaptchacontact.yaml. You then edit (and add the key to) the file in user/config/plugins. That way, when the plugin gets updated, your config doesn’t get overwritten.

Hello again. Seems i jumped of the hot pot, to the frying pan. I now have the error

Argument 1 passed to Grav\Plugin\EmailPlugin::buildMessage() must be of the type array, null given, called in /home/pixyznet/public_html/user/plugins/email/email.php on line 75 and defined

this email.php is suposed to recieve the parameters to build the email. So, my debug is:

public function onFormProcessed(Event $event) {
  dump($event);
  die();

I can see its getting the info:

Event {#137 ▼
#items: array:3 [▼
"form" => Form {#154 ▼
+message: null
+message_color: null
#header_data: []
#rules: []
#data: Data {#157 ▼
#gettersVariable: “items”
#items: array:4 [▼
"name" => “Luis”
“email” => "email@gmail.com"
“telefone” => "912123123"
“maisinfo” => “test”

So, in

    $form = $event['form'];
    $action = $event['action'];
    $params = $event['params'];

    dump($params);
    die();

so th index “params” doesn’t exist, but the info is there. So what can i do?

thanks for any help

Ah, btw: the site is in http://pixyz.net/

What do your email.yaml and recaptchacontact.yaml files look like? (Sanitized of sensitive information, of course.)

9

/user/config/recaptchacontact/recaptchacontact.yaml

enabled: true
default_lang: pt
disable_css: false
inject_template: true
grecaptcha_sitekey: "[grecaptcha_sitekey_string]"
grecaptcha_secret: “[grecaptcha_secret_string]”

(replace grecaptcha_secret_string and grecaptcha_sitekey_string by true keys)

and email.yaml?? i don’t have that. can’t find info about it. Can u plz show where to get it and how to configure it?

thanks

I’m just confused because your error messages are referencing the Email plugin, which Recaptchacontact doesn’t rely on. When I go to your website’s contact page, I don’t see the recaptcha field. And when I try to send, the error message is for the Email plugin.

Sorry for the late repply. Yes, i did uninstall captcha (i’m also sorry not to mention this :frowning: ), just to see if the email worked without it. But its seems the email plugin has some misconfiguration.

I folowed the reademe file, and with the info in https://support.google.com/a/answer/176600?hl=en
i configured the email as such:

enabled: true
from: [email]
from_name: pixyz.net
to: [email]
to_name: [email]
mailer:
engine: mail
smtp:
server: smtp.gmail.com
port: 465
encryption: ssl
user: '[email]'
password: '[password]'
sendmail:
bin: '/usr/sbin/sendmail’
content_type: text/html
debug: true

But i still have:

Argument 1 passed to Grav\Plugin\EmailPlugin::buildMessage() must be of the type array, null given, called in /home/pixyznet/public_html/user/plugins/email/email.php on line 74 and defined

I noticed $params gets a null value, in

public function onFormProcessed(Event $event) {
    $form = $event['form'];
    $action = $event['action'];
    $params = $event['params'];
    var_dump($params);
    die();

i do know $action is valid:

var_dump($action); // string(5) “email”

this $params is probably the cause for complain, once it is the 2nd parameter in

$message = $this->buildMessage($params, $vars);

tomorrow i’ll try to look at this again. Anyone wants to take a shot?

Thank u all for the paitience. Cheers :slight_smile:
