How to Set Up Dynamic Receivers in TYPO3 Powermail Based on User Input

In web development, dynamic form handling is essential for creating personalized user experiences. A common use case in form handling is changing email recipients based on user input. In this guide, we will address how to set up dynamic email receivers in TYPO3 Powermail, specifically when the user inputs a number.

The Problem: Default Mail Always Sent

Imagine a scenario where a user types a number into a specific field labeled "x" within your TYPO3 Powermail form. The requirement is to use the first three digits of this number to determine which email address should receive the form submission. Instead of sending it to the correct recipient based on the input, many developers encounter a problem where the default email is always sent instead.

The Code You Might Have Tried

While this configuration appears correct, it's possible that you are not seeing the expected result. The main question then becomes, What’s the error here, and how can you resolve it?

The Solution: Ensure Proper TSConfig is Set

Understanding the Mistake

The key problem arises from a missing configuration in the PAGE TypoScript (TSConfig) for Powermail. The dynamic mail receiver setup relies on this configuration to function correctly.

Adding the Required TSConfig

To fix this issue, you need to add the following line to your page TSconfig:

This line of code effectively links the dynamic email setup to the Powermail configuration, allowing the program to access your defined email cases.

Conclusion: Testing Your Configuration

After making the above adjustment, it’s important to run a test submission through your form. Here are steps to ensure everything works smoothly:

Enter a 3-digit Number: In the form field labeled "x", input a number that will correspond with one of your defined cases (e.g., 001 or 002).

Submit the Form: Check to see which email address receives the submission.

Debug if Necessary: If the wrong address still receives the email, revisit your setup and check for any typos or misconfigurations.

Final Thoughts

Dynamic email receivers in TYPO3 Powermail can greatly enhance your website's interactivity and responsiveness to user inputs. By correctly setting up the TypoScript configuration, as shown, you can ensure users enjoy a tailored and efficient experience.
