    Hi,

    My goal is to receive an email after a new event is added on a page, where shortcode [emefs_submit_event_form] is used.

    I referred to https://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/category/documentation/12-hooks-and-filters/

    and inserted into the themes functions.php the following code:

    add_action('eme_insert_event_action','eme_mail_event');
function eme_mail_event ($event) {
   $contact = eme_get_event_contact ($event);
   $contact_email = $contact->user_email;
   $contact_name = $contact->display_name;
   $subject_format="This is the new event called ' #_EVENTNAME '";
   $body_format="This is the new event called ' #_EVENTNAME '";

   $subject=eme_replace_placeholders($subject_format, $event, "text");
   $body=eme_replace_placeholders($body_format, $event, "text");
   $blogusers = get_users();
   foreach ( $blogusers as $user ) {
      eme_send_mail($subject,$body, $user->user_email, $user->display_name, $contact_email, $contact_name);
   }
}

    but unfortunately I don′t receive an email …

    May the theme be the problem? Does the theme have to provide something?

    Best regards and thank you,
    Markus

    it works now

    In the E-Mail settings I switched from SMTP to PHP mailfunction now …

    And use the following code:

    add_action(’eme_insert_event_action’,’eme_mail_event’);
function eme_mail_event ($event) {
$from_email = "[email protected]";
$from_name = "Markus1";
$to_email = "[email protected]";
$to_name = "Markus2";
$subject_format=”This is the new event called ‘ #_EVENTNAME ‘”;
$body_format=”This is the new event called ‘ #_EVENTNAME ‘”;

$subject=eme_replace_placeholders($subject_format, $event, “text”);
$body=eme_replace_placeholders($body_format, $event, “text”);
eme_send_mail($subject,$body, $to_email, $to_name, $from_email, $from_name);
}
