ecard

The module is developed for my ecard site and I decided to contribute it to the community. Being a part of a community is great feeling , and contributing to the community is "yet" another great feeling :).

About this module

It's an ecard module. There is one module postcard but its tied up with image module. As the popularity of cck contents we can"t use postcard module for cck. I saw many people are in need of it and myself too. So I decided to make a general ecard module from the scratch. It can be attached to any content type whether its image, book, page, story or any custom content made using cck.

It hook the content with nodeapi and there you will get a form to send that content as ecard (I am using name ecard , but if we hook it to blog/story etc its bettername "share this post" ). It also include a notification whether intended recipient picked the card (read the post).

A demo is available in my ecard site. Thats multiform , my contribution is single form as its easy to customize single form by others or make it multiform easily. I will make a documentation to how to make it multiform if there is many requests by users to do so.

I read source code of many modules which helped me with creating this module. And I am thankful for the following contributors and their contributions which helped me a lot while I developing this module.

Drupal 5 Version

The D5 version development is now frozen. Only bugfixes will be done. New features will only go to the D6 version! If you want multilingual emails please take a look at the http://drupal.org/project/mail_edit module.

Security

It is recommended to secure the form with a module like http://drupal.org/project/captcha if you want to give access to send ecards to the anonymous users. By this you can ensure that no botmails are send.
