Hey,
First off, Form Tools is an amazing tool! Extremely user friendly.
This should maybe be in Feature Requests, but in case anyone can help...
I'd like to be able to set certain submissions to send a reminder email, depending on what is filled in on the form.
I thought I could do this with the Email "Advanced Settings > Only for submissions in View" options, but it doesn't seem to be possible.
Basically, I'd like to include an option on the form for a 'Complete by' date, which would give options like 'Within 1 Week', 'Within 1 Month' or 'No Date'.
When the form is submitted, it sends an email notification to an address.
Unless the form is modified within the time specified (e.g. within 1 week), another, reminder email will be sent to the address.
I thought I could create a Filter in the View to be 'Date Modified' Greater than 1 Week or something similar, but it can only be set against a specific date.
Is it possible to have email reminders automatically sent after a defined period? Could this be achieved with a hook, or a seperate php page on the server?
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks a lot,
nukebat.
