Hi,
I have cck content type like a webform, but I build it with cck, because I want to be able to use the content as a node.
I have looked into rules and have the following questions.
1) Is it possible with rules to file an email to the anonymous user on Submitting the content of this specific contenttype?
2) How can I let the user type in his emailaddress, but with submit the emailadres is not saved in the node-content on view?
3) Would it be possible to use the cck_field email for this?
4) If so, what would the rule look like using to email the anonymous user a thank you by submitting the content?
Thanks a lot in advance for your reply!
Greetings, Martijn

Hi,
I can answer 2 and 3 after more investigation myself:
2) How can I let the user type in his emailaddress, but with submit the emailadres is not saved in the node-content on view?
The cck email fieldtype can be set hidden on node teaser and full node, then email is not shown!
3) Would it be possible to use the cck_field email for this?
Yes cck_field email has rules integration!
Standing questions:
1) Is it possible with rules to file an email to the anonymous user on Submitting the content of this specific contenttype?
4) If so, what would the rule look like using to email the anonymous user a thank you by submitting the content?
Thanks a lot still for your reply!, greetings, Martijn

Hi,
Thank you for your post. I'm using a "form" content type with many cck fields, then I use it as a node, just like you.
I need to email all the entries in this form to the writer when he submits it. Therefore I'm really interested in the solutions you've found.
Can we theme the template of the email like in webform ?
Best regards.

Hi, its very easy, look into rules and see the tokens which are there to extend and change the message as a format.
