How to create Auto generated mails?


1. Create an email account, example: sample@domainname.com
2. Add that email account as Forwarder
3. In Add a new Forwarder form, set the destination to no-reply@domainname.com or [anyusername]@domainname.com
4. Add Auto-Responder and set its email field to a value the same as the destination email you've set in Forwarder.

Hint: If you do not create a forwarder or email account with the same address as this auto responder, mail sent to this autoresponder will only be handled by the autoresponder before it is discarded.

When configuring an auto responder you can use the following tags to insert information into the message that is returned to the user:

%subject%The subject of the message that was sent to the autoresponder.
%from%The sender of the message that was sent to the autoresponder.
%email%The sender's email from the message that was sent to the autoresponder.

how to create a page template:
  • Open a php editor, I recommend netbeans.
  • Browse thru the files and go to wordpress/wp-content/themes/nameofyourtheme/
  • duplicate any existing templates you have and you can name it to whatever you want. Example: I will create a copy or "archives.php" and name it "contact.php"
  • in the uppermost part of contact.php code, refer to the code below:
/**
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Default_Theme
*/
/*
Template Name: Archives
*/
?>
  • Change "Template Name: Archives" to "Template Name: Contact"
  • Go to your wordpress admin and create a new page, you will noticed on the right column that the choose template portion will now show up

Drupal notes

How to create a panel:

1. Create a Menu
  • Administer -> Menus -> Add Menu
  • Fill out all fields
  • Click save
2. Enable the menu
The newly created menu will then be assigned as a new block.
  • Administer -> Blocks
  • Under disabled category, change the region of the new block (the same name as the newly created menu), by simply picking an option from the drop down list.
  • Click Save Block
Don't expect for it to directly display in the assigned region. You still have to assign contents (pages/story) as child for that block.

3. Adding child contents
  • Click Create content
  • Choose either page or story
  • Assign a title in the Title field (all lower-case, replace spaces with hyphen)
  • Click Menu settings to bring necessary fields
  • Assign a Menu link title
  • Select the newly created block from the list of Parent Items
  • The body is optional. You may type some descriptions if you want.
  • Click Save
Now the newly created panel will appear in the region that you specified.
