You don't need to be a programmer. That's the point of CB Auto ActionsThanks Kyle. I'm not a programmer so I don't really understand exactly how this works but I tried anyway.
It won't work with an email action because that trigger doesn't give you a full user object to substitute the email. You've only access to their user ids, which is why I suggested a PM (where it will work).Anyways, after failing to get the substitutions above to work, I tried what you said, created an Email action with [var1] in the From and [var2] in the To fields with the OnAfterAddConnection trigger. The emails didn't get sent.

For the substitutions to work from that trigger you'll have to try my suggestion in my previous reply. Either use Variable 1 for the person making the connection or Variable 2 for the person being connected to.One final issue, I use CB Invites so when a user is invited to join and accepts, the onAfterAddconnection email is triggered. This means that new sign-ups now get an extra junk email that's missing the name of the person who invited them (presumably the username can't be included as they're not friends at the time of inviting or something).
It depends on how they're accepting the invite. If you're using the invite code field then I'd just condition it to see if the invite code field has a value, but that's going to be problematic as that trigger doesn't container a user object.Can I add a condition to the PM Auto Action to specify that this email only gets sent once the user already has 1 connection - ie. to disable this email from being sent on sign-up?
