I want to do basic functionality with a simple contact form and on submit the form emails to someone. This is quite easy to do in asp.net, however I am having trouble once I upload it as a user control. Do you have a good example I can look at? Thank you!
It is the same as you would have in a normal asp.net page, the sample assumes you are using the latest version of Sitefinity and that you are have a RadScriptManager or ScriptManager on your master page.
Firstly here is my example form codebehind:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Net.Mail;
using System.Text;
using System.ComponentModel;
public partial class UserControls_LandingPage_contactForm : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
bool bSent = false;
try
{
//create the email and add the settings
var email = new MailMessage();
email.From = new MailAddress(FromEmail);
email.To.Add(new MailAddress(FromEmail));
email.Subject = Subject;
email.IsBodyHtml = true;
//build the body
var sBody = new StringBuilder();
sBody.Append("<strong>Contact Details</strong><br /><br />");
sBody.AppendFormat("Needs: {0}<br />", cboConsultationType.SelectedValue);
sBody.AppendFormat("Name: {0}<br />", txtName.Text);
sBody.AppendFormat("Email: {0}<br />", txtEmail.Text);
sBody.AppendFormat("Number: {0}<br />", txtPhone.Text);
sBody.AppendFormat("Comment: {0}<br />", txtMsg.Text);
email.Body = sBody.ToString();
//send the email
var smtpServer = new SmtpClient();
smtpServer.Send(email);
//mark as sent ok
bSent = true;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
//send any errors back
//add your own custom handling of errors;
}
//let the end user know if it was a success
ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this, this.GetType(), "alert", "alert('" + (bSent ? SuccessText : FailureText) + "');", true);
}
//properties
public string FromEmail
{
get { return _fromEmail; }
set { _fromEmail = value; }
}
public string Subject
{
get { return _subject; }
set { _subject = value; }
}
public string SuccessText
{
get { return _successText; }
set { _successText = value; }
}
public string FailureText
{
get { return _failureText; }
set { _failureText = value; }
}
//fields
private string _fromEmail = "info@example.com.au";
private string _subject = "Website Enquiry";
private string _successText = "Thank you for submitting your details we will be in touch shortly.";
private string _failureText = "There was a problem submitting your details please try again shortly.";
}

</ul>

Then the only other items you need to be wary of is in the web.config you need to modify the system.net settings for email:
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp from="mailmaster@yourdomain.com">
<network host="smtp.yourdomain.com" userName="Your_Username" password="Your_Password" port="25" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net>
Then upload the control or modify your web.config . Then provided your SMTP server is all set up correctly the form should send no problem.
I hope this helps you out.
I think one good approach is using the incorporated mail sender. The profits are that you can configure the settings inside the Administration->Settings->Advanced->System->SMTP
var smtpSettings = Config.Get<SystemConfig>().SmtpSettings;
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
message.From = new MailAddress(smtpSettings.UserName);
message.To.Add(new MailAddress(toEmail));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.AppendFormat(body);
message.Subject = subject;
message.Body = sb.ToString();
message.IsBodyHtml = true;
message.BodyEncoding = Encoding.Unicode;
message.SubjectEncoding = Encoding.Unicode;
EmailSender.Get().Send(message);
You can use notifications too.
