SPForm redirecting wrongly on POST

Summary

Quick summary what this issue is about.
Hi All. I’m an older user of ModX from the days of etomite (yes, that long). I’ve made a couple of sites and my small business homepage runs on it.
I thought it was about time I added a contact page that works.

I couldn’t get FormIt to work. The tutorials are just non-plug and play.
SPForm was meant to ‘just work’… which it did… but then it didn’t.

Step to reproduce

After trying different options with FormIt, I gave up. I then saw a post from Bob somewhere saying SPForm was plug and play. Amazing I thought. I tried it. The install failed, because I had a page with an Alias already called ‘contact’, so I renamed that page, uninstalled, and reinstall again. This time it worked.

I sent a test email to my self from my new empty blank tempated page. Yay!
https:\\mywebsite.com\contact\ (128)

It forwarded me to a newly empty blank tempated page sent myself an email.
https:\\mywebsite.com\thankyou\ (129)

Great stuff! Finally working.
So, I thought it should have the current site template. So I changed this newly created page (128) to have a template.
https:\\mywebsite.com\contact\

I hit submit, and it then it failed to send an email, and failed to forward be to the thankyou page. Instead, I got sent to this page which doesn’t exist:
https:\\mywebsite.com\contact\contact\
with an error “Oops”. (404)

I’m on the latest versions.
MODX Revolution 2.8.6-pl
SPForm: 3.3.4-pl

This is what I’m using, as per the default.

Anyway, I don’t know why SPForm isn’t working. Any help would be great. :slight_smile:

Good news. I ended up getting FormIt finally working and so abandoned my SPForm quest - after writing this post.

I’m glad you got something working. Did SPForm put anything useful in the error log?

Unfortunately I didn’t turn logging on - just the onscreen debug, and what was logged - in the general log - didn’t show anything either.
