    Hello,

    I have been looking for some time, as a means to send a notification based on a form submission.

    to give a rundown of what I like to achieve, I would like to capture form parameters and when the user submits the form, a custom notification is then triggered and send the form data, to an email that’s contained in the form data.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hi @rossq!

    I cannot see any problem. Just add do_action() in the form handler and you are ready to build the trigger on top of that!

    I’d point you to the documentation but if you’ll wait few days my tutorial on Smashing Magazine should be published with an example of Notification for form submission.

    Hi @kubitomakita,

    Thanks for your quick response,

    The actual form is from another plugin, which was not designed by me. So I’m not sure where to start, however, if your tutorial will help with is. That would be great.

    Ah, then you have to check the sourcecode of this plugin and search for the action the plugin executes upon the submission.

    Ok, I do not think I can get hold of the source code since it is a paid for plugin.
