CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi,
I've been struggling so long to figure out how an Individual who submit a profile form to get some kind of confirmation on mail.  I was first thinking that this is probably a standard feature like in the other modules, but i couldn't find it.  After googleing for a while I found out that the only way is to user hooks.  My knowledge of this is unfortunately limited.

I would be very happy if someone could help me with a link or some basic code to implement to my Joomla site.

To be more specific, I want the Civicrm to send out a confirmation mail automatically, every time an individual creates or do any changes on the profile form.

Thanx for all help:-)

I don't think what you're describing is part of the standard profile code. Two options are:

1. With Drupal, some kind of Rules solution is what I'd think of. Unfortunately, I don't think there is any equivalent for Joomla, but hopefully I'm wrong.

2. A custom extension. Some kind of simple, generic, CiviCRM-native rules-like extension would be nice for cases like this, maybe someone has already written it.
