# DEPRECATED

This Craft CMS 2.x plugin is no longer supported, but it is fully functional, and you may continue to use it as you see fit. The license also allows you to fork it and make changes as needed for legacy support reasons.

---

Extend Pixel & Tonic’s [Guest Entries](https://github.com/pixelandtonic/GuestEntries/) plugin with email notifications.

**NOTE: this plugin requires the Guest Entries plugin**

## Installation

1. Upload the guestentriesemail/ folder to your craft/plugins/ folder.

2. Enable the plugin in the CP.

3. Configure settings to setup emails based on content types.

## Email Notification

Here’s the scenerio. I’m a big fan of saving a copy of form submissions into the database as a backup for clients. While the [Contact Form](https://github.com/pixelandtonic/ContactForm/) plugin is great for a very basic contact form, I often find myself needing other form fields that have their own validation needs. The [Guest Entries](https://github.com/pixelandtonic/GuestEntries/) plugin works great for creating the backup entries, but it just lacks the notification to the client that a new submission has been added.

Currently, all this plugin does is take the field values submitted through a Guest Entries-based form and emails it to a list of people of your choosing in a `Field Name`: `Field value` pattern. I haven't fully tested this out for fields other than basic text and textarea form fields, so I don't know if it will work with things like checkboxes or radio/select fields.

For now I'm not planning on releasing this as a fully fleshed out plugin unless it turns out to be useful for other devs. If you want to see it grow or if you find any bugs, please contact me, send in a pull request, or drop a note in Issues.

## Releases

#### *0.1.0*
