Magento 1.9 – Custom Module Form with Zend_Mail and Additional Params

contact-formemailmagento-1.9zend-framework

I created a simple custom module and have a problem with $parmas which I can't figure out for hours now.

Here is the IndexController.php responsible for it:

        public function sendemailAction()
        {
            //Fetch submited params
            $params = $this->getRequest()->getParams();
     
            $mail = new Zend_Mail();
            $mail->setBodyText($params['name']);
            $mail->setFrom($params['email'], $params['name']);
            $mail->addTo('greg@domain.co.uk', 'Some Recipient');
            $mail->setSubject('Test Wholesale_SimpleContact Module');
            try {
                $mail->send();
            }        
            catch(Exception $ex) {
                Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->addError('Unable to send email. Sample of a custom notification error from Wholesale_SimpleContact.');
     
            }
     
            //Redirect back to index action of (this) wholesale-simplecontact controller
            $this->_redirect('wholesale-simplecontact/');
        }

In the $mail->setBodyText($params['name']); I need more $params to be included. These are: name email business_name business_address telephone_number.

I tried many different things such as:

        $mail->setBodyText($params['name'], $params['email'], $params['business_name'], $params['business_address'], $params['telephone_number']);

But no luck. They all work individually so they are set correctly. I just can't get them to be sent together.

UPDATED CONTROLLER:

        public function sendemailAction() {
            $params = $this->getRequest()->getParams();
            $name = $this->getRequest()->getParam('name');
            $email = $this->getRequest()->getParam('email');
            $businessName = $this->getRequest()->getParam('business_name');
            $businessAddress = $this->getRequest()->getParam('business_address');
            $telephoneNumber = $this->getRequest()->getParam('telephone_number');
            $allParams = $name;
            $allParams .= $email;
            $allParams .= $businessName;
            $allParams .= $businessAddress;
            $allParams .= $telephoneNumber;
            $body = $name.' '.$email.' '.$businessName.' '.$businessAddress.' '.$telephoneNumber
            $mail = new Zend_Mail();
            $mail->setBodyText($body)
            $mail->setFrom($email, $name);
            $mail->addTo('greg@domain.co.uk', 'Some Recipient');
            $mail->setSubject('Test Wholesale_SimpleContact Module');
            try {
                $mail->send();
            }     
            catch(Exception $ex) {
                Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->addError('Unable to send email. Sample of a custom notification error from Wholesale_SimpleContact.');
            }
            //Redirect back to index action of (this) wholesale-simplecontact controller
            $this->_redirect('wholesale-simplecontact/');
        }

Try this:

<!-- I haven't tested it but tell me about a result-->
public function sendemailAction() {
    $params = $this->getRequest()->getParams();
    $name = $this->getRequest()->getParam('name');
    $email = $this->getRequest()->getParam('email');
    $businessName = $this->getRequest()->getParam('business_name');
    $businessAddress = $this->getRequest()->getParam('business_address');
    $telephoneNumber = $this->getRequest()->getParam('telephone_number');
    $body = $name.' '.$email.' '.$businessName.' '.$businessAddress.' '.$telephoneNumber;
    $mail = new Zend_Mail();
    $mail->setBodyText($body);
    $mail->setFrom($email, $name);
    $mail->addTo('greg@domain.co.uk', 'Some Recipient');
    $mail->setSubject('Test Wholesale_SimpleContact Module');
    try {
        $mail->send();
    }     
    catch(Exception $ex) {
        Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->addError('Unable to send email. Sample of a custom notification error from Wholesale_SimpleContact.');
    }
    //Redirect back to index action of (this) wholesale-simplecontact controller
    $this->_redirect('wholesale-simplecontact/');
}

Magento 2 Custom Module – How to Submit a Form

create a controller Save.php and copy paste in your module.

<?php
namespace [Namespace]\[ModuleName]\Controller\Index;


class Save extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action
{

    /**
     * @var \Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory
     */
    protected $resultPageFactory;


    /**
     * @param \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context
     * @param \Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory $resultPageFactory
     */
    public function __construct(
        \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context,
        \Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory $resultPageFactory
    )
    {
        $this->resultPageFactory = $resultPageFactory;
        parent::__construct($context);
    }

    /**
     * Default customer account page
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function execute()
    {

        /** @var \Magento\Framework\Controller\Result\Redirect $resultRedirect */
        $resultRedirect = $this->resultRedirectFactory->create();

        try{

            $request = $this->getRequest()->getParams();           
            $email = $request['email'];
            $this->resultPageFactory->create();
            return $resultRedirect->setPath('contactus/index/index');

        }catch (\Exception $e){
            $this->messageManager->addExceptionMessage($e, __('We can\'t submit your request, Please try again.'));
            $this->_objectManager->get('Psr\Log\LoggerInterface')->critical($e);
            return $resultRedirect->setPath('contactus/index/index');
        }

    }

}
?>

create save.phtml file from [Namespace]/[ModuleName/view/frontend/templates and copy paste it below code.

  <?php
    $objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();
    $storeManager = $objectManager->create('\Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface');
    $baseURL_l = $social_image_url = $storeManager->getStore()->getBaseUrl();
    ?>
    <form action="<?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo $baseURL_l . 'contactus/index/save' ?>" method="post" id="form-validate" enctype="multipart/form-data" autocomplete="off" data-mage-init='{"validation":{}}' data-hasrequired="<?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo __('* Required Fields') ?>">
        <div class="field required">
            <label for="email_address" class="label"><span><?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo __('Email') ?></span><span class="span">*</span></label>
            <div class="control">
                <input type="email" name="email" autocomplete="email" id="email_address" value="" title="<?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo __('Email') ?>" class="input-text" data-validate="{required:true, 'validate-email':true}">
            </div>
        </div><br/>
 <div class="primary">
            <button type="submit" class="action submit primary" title="<?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo __('Submit') ?>"><span><?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo __('Submit') ?></span></button>
        </div>
    </form>

Now enter the email and hit the Submit button you will get the email $request['email'] this variable. So you can do it from your logic.
