[SOLVED] Trigger for action when cliking a field who contains a link

Hi

I'm still not specialize in Auto_Action but i know that is a powerful tools.

I would like, for my exemple, sending an email to admin when a user clic on a field who contains a File.
My action would be MAIL (courriel in french), but witch trigger do I use to specify the name of the field who contains the file ?

Maybe it's not possible.

Thank you.

There's no trigger when someone clicks a field. The generic field class trigger is fired when someone attempts to download or view a file from a file field though and you maybe able to use that, but it's a bit of a long shot. Example as follows.

Global
Trigger: onAfterfieldClass
Type: Email
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Conditions
1: [var2_id] Greater Than 0
2: [var3] Is Not REGEX /profile|edit|list/
3: [get_function] Equal To download

That should match the condition checks for the field class behavior of a field field. The rest of the email action you can configure as normally. The user substitutions will be of the profile owner though and not the viewing user unless you set User to Self.

Using [var] is still not easy for me.

So, for the moment I tried Auto-action with simply :
Global
Trigger: onAfterfieldClass
Type: Email
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody

No conditions

---

When I download a file in my website I don't received Mail.

---

I tried also to put Condition :
[get_function] Equal To download

No email also.


Normaly, without conditions I should receive an email everytime I download a file on my website, no ?

PS :
I have another Auto Action Email with trigger OnAfterUserLoginSuccess who works.

Using [var] is still not easy for me.

You don't need to do anything to the var usages beyond use exactly as provided in my example.

When I download a file in my website I don't received Mail.

The file field does an exit so the after trigger may not work. Try the below usage instead.

Global
Trigger: onBeforefieldClass
Type: Email
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Conditions
1: [var2_id] Greater Than 0
2: [var3] Is Not REGEX /profile|edit|list/
3: [get_function] Equal To download

Thank you Kyle. It works now.

I have now to try to find solution for conditionnal what file is downloaded.

Another question -> I answer to myself
When I display with substitution the field file i obtain :

The link of the file : www.mywebsite.com/cb-profile/fieldclass?field=cb_notedoperation&function=download&user=411&reason=profile with the [FIELD_NAME]


The name of the file with the [cb:userfield field="FIELD_NAME" /]

Thank you.

You can also get the filename by accessing the user object variable for that trigger, which is var2. So [var2_FIELD_NAME] should just be the filename as stored in the database.
