e-card From field

[tatapx]

Just finished to search but didn't find it.

I am testing Coppemine now and wanted to fix the problem so I can replace my current gallery "Gallery".

The problem is users can send an ecard and use the webmasters or other users email addy.

Is it possible to automatically fill the "Your email address" field with their email address as they are members of my board (IPB).  Or if it is not possible, can it be configured not to allow to send using the webmasters mail address in "Your email address" field?

Regards

restrict sending of ecards to registered users onyl (in the groups panel of coppermine admin menu) and edit ecards.php - find

Code Select Expand

<input type="text" class="textinput" name="sender_email"  value="$sender_email" style="WIDTH: 100%;">and replace with

Code Select Expand

<input type="hidden" class="textinput" name="sender_email"  value="$sender_email" />This way, your users won't be able to edit the sender_email value.

Thank you for your quick reply.

It did prevent to edit the sender email value but when I click the button to send I got...

Warning : invalid email address !

this hack only works if the $sender_email actually contains the correct value, e.g. if the user's email address is being written into the hidden field. If it doesn't, then this'll require some additional coding...

Can the same be done with vBulletin 3.4?

What would the line be?

Thanks again, I hope this hack will be in your list on the next CPG upgrdade. I am not good with php, so I'll just wait.

More power to CPG!

What I did was used GauGau's suggestion and also added:

Code Select Expand

<input type="hidden" class="textinput" name="sender_email" value="$sender_email" /><b>Can't Edit!</b><br>To change email address see your profile.
So that when the go to send an ecard, they won't just get a 'blank' and also know where to change their email address at.

Also I noticed that this works great with Members, but me as an Admin it won't fill in the email address automatically. (I guess cause when we first signed up after the install, it didnt' 'email verify' us like it does for the members. Also, there is no place in 'My Profile' to add the email address, like there is for members. When I try to edit, it tells me I can't, since it's my profile, I have to goto "My Profile Link" to edit any info, but the email address field is not there.

Found a work around for that... just create new account and make it an admin. There you can edit the normal "admin" email account. And then it's fixed

Thanks, I'll try it this week.
