Getting a page attribute from within a form block

Permalink 1 user found helpful
Hi!

I have a form block in a Global Area. The pages in my site have a page attribute called "email" with an email address in it (every page has its own specific email address). I would like the form block to send the messages to this email address. Is it possible? How would you approach this?

THanks!

Ok, so this was not that hard after all.

Imagine you have created a page attribute called "email" with an email address in it.

You can fetch the email address (or any page attribute) with the following code:

$pageEmailAttribute = Page::getCurrentPage()->getAttribute('email');


So you just need to use this variable as the recipient email address.

I've attached the code I used (you need to copy this file to /blocks/form/controller.php).
