Note - I’ve put this post into the Feature Request section as well.
I’m now getting desperate. After weeks of futile attempts to get the SendGrid API code working for my website unico.org , I am still unable to reliably send email messages from a database form. While I was able to send test messages, others who tried got no response. Unless this is a “gotcha” which can only be remedied by a SendGrid upgrade I clearly need an alternative method.
I have the credentials to use the SMTP server I used in the previous version of the site (active server pages - that’s how old it was) in server-side VBScript code. I need a way to emulate that method. There is a site SMTPJS.com which provides code examples for using JavaScript to achieve the same purpose, but it assumes a “normal” web page where you can include remote .js files and build your forms the old-fashioned way using HTML.
I need a way to do this in Wix. I have an unhappy-rapidly-moving-to-angry client who is putting the screws to me to get this working. Please provide the necessary code examples for how this can be done ASAP.
I was under a lot of time pressure, so I needed a quick solution right then and there. I found it in the form of EmailMeForm - a 3rd party service that supports custom email forms and provides the means of embedding the form in a Wix page via an iframe. Best of all, it’s free for the limited number of emails that need to be sent each month.
It’s working so I’m going to leave well enough alone, but I appreciate your taking the time to respond to my original post. Thanks!
@smiller No Worries, I have had some support from the Wix team on hear and thought I would help out if I could, can I ask if you are a developer? or know coding? I need a little help on a few things.
@simonadams My coding skills are ancient - COBOL, VBScript and ASP. I’m not very proficient in JavaScript so I’m probably not the droid you’re looking for.
