I am trying to make a plugin which lists all users from a database with for each user a button to send an email to them. So the only way I can get with their username their email adress is to use the $POST which is given after the button is clicked. With their username I can search the db table to retreive the email. The problem here is that the page will reload and the function wp_mail is called before the pluggable.php has loaded its functions.
Here is the post:
if ($_POST) {
sendEmail(current(array_keys($_POST)));
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('Email is sent!')</script>";
}
And here is the function:
function sendEmail($username) {
global $wpdb;
$user = $wpdb->get_row("SELECT email, firstname from wp_site_users WHERE username ='" . $username ."'" , ARRAY_A);
$mail = $wpdb->get_row("SELECT * from wp_send_email WHERE id='1'", ARRAY_A);
$to = $user['email'];
$subject = 'Hello!';
$message = $mail['header'] . $user['firstname'] ."\n";
$message .= $mail['content'] . $username . "\n";
$message .= $mail['footer'];
$headers = 'From: '.'test#test.com'."\r\n";
echo $to . "<br>" . $subject . "<br>" . $message . "<br>" . $headers;
wp_mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
}
I've tried to add add_action( 'plugins_loaded', 'sendEmail' ); at the header but that doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas?
You are calling wp_mail before it's loaded..
Just include wp-load.php and go ahead!
require('../../../wp-load.php');
or
require('wp-load.php');
Depending how your script are loaded.
Call wp_mail after all of the necessary files are loaded:
add_action( 'plugins_loaded', 'plugins_load' );
function plugins_load() {
require MY_PLUGIN_PATH . '/includes/main.php';
$headers = array('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
wp_mail('youremail#gmail.com', 'Thank you', 'Message', $headers);
}

This is my contact-form-handler.php file. After clicking submit button, I want an alert in PHP. I am receiving Mail successfully and redirect to my main page but without an alert message. How can I use the alert box in PHP?
My form is working fine, but this time I stucked in this simple task.
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
//$companyMail = 'enesh#gmail.com';
$to = "eneshpal#gmail.com"; // this is your Email address
$customerMail = $_POST['formEmail']; // this is the sender's Email address
$first_name = $_POST['formFirstName'];
$last_name = $_POST['formLastName'];
$phone = $_POST['formPhone'];
$text = $_POST['formText'];
/* foreach($_POST['project_type'] as $project_type_value){} */
$projectType = implode(', ',$_POST['project_type']);
$scopeProject = implode(', ',$_POST['scope_project']);
$project_type_Str = 'Project Type : '.$projectType;
$scope_project_Str = 'Scope of Project : '.$scopeProject;
$subject = "Form Submission";
$message = "Hi, \n\n";
$message .= "First Name: ".$first_name . "\nLast Name: " . $last_name . " \nEmail: " . $customerMail . " \nPhone : " . $phone . "\nDescription: " . $text . "\n";
$message .= $project_type_Str."\n";
$message .= $scope_project_Str;
//$message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
//$headers = "From:" . $companyMail;
//$headers2 = "From:" . $to;
if(mail($to,$subject,$message)){
//echo 'Mail Sent';
//$message = "Thanks, We Will Contact you Shortly";
//echo "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('$message');</script>";
echo "<script>alert('Thanks, We Will Contact you Shortly');</script>";
header('Location:get_estimation.php');
}else{
echo 'Mail Not Sent';
}
//mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
/*if( "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly.")
else die; */
// You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
}
?>
In your case it would be better to redirect the user
header('Location:get_estimation.php?success=true');
and pass a GET-parameter.
When the GET-Parameter is set it will display what you want on your get_estimation.php-page
There are many problems with your script, but to answer your key question... you are echo'ing out the javascript code for an alert(), which will in turn prevent your php header('Location:get_estimation.php'); from executing because there has already been output sent to the browser before header was called. See here for more info.
Remember that header() must be called before any actual output is sent, either by normal HTML tags, blank lines in a file, or from PHP. It is a very common error to read code with include, or require, functions, or another file access function, and have spaces or empty lines that are output before header() is called. The same problem exists when using a single PHP/HTML file.
As per your comment above...
Yes Sir I want just just wish to render a success message after the form has been submitted?
To give you an example of how to achieve what you need for this...
<?php
if (!empty($_GET['success'])) {
echo 'Thanks, we will contact you shortly';
exit;
}
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$to = "eneshpal#gmail.com";
$customerMail = $_POST['formEmail'];
$first_name = $_POST['formFirstName'];
$last_name = $_POST['formLastName'];
$phone = $_POST['formPhone'];
$text = $_POST['formText'];
$projectType = implode(', ', $_POST['project_type']);
$scopeProject = implode(', ', $_POST['scope_project']);
$project_type_Str = 'Project Type : ' . $projectType;
$scope_project_Str = 'Scope of Project : ' . $scopeProject;
$subject = "Form Submission";
$message = "Hi, \n\n";
$message .= "First Name: " . $first_name . "\nLast Name: " . $last_name . " \nEmail: " . $customerMail . " \nPhone : " . $phone . "\nDescription: " . $text . "\n";
$message .= $project_type_Str . "\n";
$message .= $scope_project_Str;
if (mail($to, $subject, $message)) {
header('Location: get_estimation.php?success=1');
exit;
} else {
echo 'Mail Not Sent';
exit;
}
}
To explain, you should not be using a browser-native javascript alert rendered from php to pop-up and notify the user of a form submission success, especially immediately after a redirect. It's just a bad user experience, it hijacks the browser window until they click ok on it and you cannot really style native alert windows etc.
Instead you should redirect with a success GET variable after the mail is sent successfully (back to the original page, presuming that is get_estimation.php in my example - but you can redirect elsewhere to another script). Then you can detect the presence of this variable in the script redirected to and show an appropriate message etc.
echo "Thank You,will contact you soon";
echo "<script>setTimeout(\"location.href = 'get_estimation.php';\",3000); </script>";
I'm creating Mobile App using Ionic. In the App, I have written some logic for lost your password functionality. There is 1 Email field from where the user can add their registered email and get some link to reset their password. please check the code below
http://proittechnology.com/dev/stylr/changePasswordEdit.php?id=
After =(equal to) sign I'm adding $email variable which checks user variable into DB and grabs their data.please check below code
$postdata = file_get_contents("php://input");
if (isset($postdata)) {
$request = json_decode($postdata);
$email = $request->email;
if ($email != "") {
echo "Server returns: " . $email;
}
else {
echo "Empty username parameter!";
}
$headers = "From: resume#harshadpatil.com" . PHP_EOL;
$headers .= "Reply-To: $email" . PHP_EOL;
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0" . PHP_EOL;
$headers .= "Content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8" . PHP_EOL;
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable" . PHP_EOL;
$message = 'http://proittechnology.com/dev/stylr/changePasswordEdit.php?id='.$email;
$send = mail($email, $subject, $message, $headers );
if ($send)
$mailReturns = "Mail sent successfully.";
else
$mailReturns = "Mail sent failed.";
echo $mailReturns;
my concern is whenever I sent the email to OUTLOOK after =(equal to sign) starting 2 letters of variable $email is getting truncated and in Gmail =(equal to sign) is not visible.
If you are passing email in URL then try passing email as urlencode($email)
Hope this will help.
I've tried so many variables and been at this for hours and hours for something I know will be so simple haha, but I cannot get this to work... All I need to do, is... when the form is completed I have it redirected to a page instead of the normal error message.
Your help is appreciated.

i would really need your help. Am developing a contact/enquiry form in my website and will like the visitor to be redirected and to see their name in the thank you page after his request has been sent to my email.
I have a php processing the mail()function but i need to invoke a javascript or something similar to post his name string to the thank you page after the mail has been sent.
<?php
$field_name = $_POST['name'];
$field_dept = $_POST['department'];
$field_inquiry = $_POST['inquiry'];
$mail_to = 'customersupport#domain.com';
$field_contact = 'contactform#domain.com';
$subject = 'New Email Arrived '.$field_name;
$body_message .= 'name: '.$field_name."\n";
$body_message .= 'Department: '.$field_dept."\n";
$body_message .= 'Message: '.$field_inquiry."\n";
$headers = 'From: '.$field_contact."\r\n";
$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$field_contact."\r\n";
$mail_status = mail($mail_to, $subject, $body_message, $headers);
?>
I used to have this php code that redirects to the thank you page but it doesn't post the $field_name
if($mail_status) {header( "Location: thankyou.html" );} else {print "We encountered an error sending your mail"; }
Can any one help me with a replacement or JavaScript that will redirect and also post $field_name to the thankyou.html after the mail must have been sent by php.
The complete php/javascript coding will be appreciated. thanks
Just send the name via get url parameter:
header( "Location: thankyou.php?name={$field_name}" );
//thankyou.php
echo "hello" . $_GET['name'];
This script is driving me up the wall. It's a simple submission form. I click the "submit" button and the email with all the submitted information is generated perfectly fine.
But I can't get the button to then redirect me to the "Thank You" page.
I've tried PHP, I've tried Javascript, I've even tried good old fashioned Meta Redirect. Nothing works.
// create email headers
$headers = 'From: '.$email_from."\r\n".
'Reply-To: '.$email_from."\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers);
header("location:http://amvleague.vitaminh.info/thankyou.html")
}
die();
?>
I've tried putting the "header" part at the top of the document. I've tried changing it to:
echo '<script>document.location="page2.html"; </script>';
I've generated so many emails with this script that gmail is now sending them all to spam. And I can't get the damn thing to redirect.
If anyone can help before I claw my eyes out, it would be much obliged. ^_^;;
EDIT: I've tried everything you've all suggested. It's as if the script just flat-out refuses to execute anything that comes after the mail command. Could there be a reason for this?
EDIT 2: Still nothing's working.
Here's the entire script (with Rolen Koh's modifications). Is there something hidden in here that is preventing the script from accessing anything that comes after the mail tag?

You can use the header() function to send a new HTTP header, but this must be sent to the browser before any HTML or text (so before the <!DOCTYPE ...> declaration, for example).
try this,this is what I am using
function redirect($url){
if (headers_sent()){
die('<script type="text/javascript">window.location.href="' . $url . '";</script>');
}else{
header('Location: ' . $url);
die();
}
}
Try this:
$mail = mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers);
if($mail)
{
header("location:http://amvleague.vitaminh.info/thankyou.html");
}
Also semi-colon is missing in your header("location:http://amvleague.vitaminh.info/thankyou.html") line but i guess it is typo error.
use location.href
echo '<script>window.location.href="page2.html"; </script>';
The window.location object can be written without the window prefix.
The line
header("location:http://amvleague.vitaminh.info/thankyou.html")
Needs to be
header("Location: http://amvleague.vitaminh.info/thankyou.html");
Note the capital "L", the space after the colon, and the semicolon at the end.
If this does not resolve your issue, then you have an issue in some other piece of code. To find it, you might try looking at the php error log. If you have access to the server, you can find this by using any of the following resources for your particular server.
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/error_log-defines-file-where-script-errors-logged/
Where does PHP store the error log? (php5, apache, fastcgi, cpanel)
Where can I find error log files?
If you are on a shared host, they might have some non-standard location for this file, in which case, it might be easiest to contact them and ask where their standard location of the php error log is.
