Plone FormGen Override Subject Line


I am new to Plone and am working a form in Plone 4.1. I would like to override the form mailer subject line so it is a string from the input from a subject field from the form and then the form name. I am not sure how to write this though.


Solution

  • Go to the form, click on "Contents", click on the Mail-adapter, click on "Edit, click on "Overrides" and insert this line in the field "Subject Expression":

    python: folder.Title() +  ': ' + request.form['subjekt']
    

    Where subjekt stands for the field-name you want to get the value of.

    Here's a helpful doc about the available context-variables:
