I created a new Webform to serve as a simple Contact form, but left the main
|
|
configuration until after I created the form components. I added 'Name',
|
|
'Email', 'Subject' and 'Message' fields, as well as a 'Category' select list.
|
|
Below 'Options', I entered each of my desired options in the following format:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
Email address|Visible name
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
I went back to the form configuration page and expanded 'Conditional Email
|
|
Recipients', and selected my Category. Note that the standard 'Email To' field
|
|
above it needs to be empty. Originally, I made the mistake of leaving addresses
|
|
in that field which resulted in people being sent emails regardles of which
|
|
category was selected. I then configured the rest of the form.
|
|
|
|
Then, when I went to the finished form, the category selection was available.
