Thank you for your continued support.
I’m using ConcreteCMS 9.4.8 with the Atomik theme.
I configured the Express form as usual, but when I test submitting, I get the error shown in the image.
I don’t plan to use any paid form add-ons, so I would appreciate it if you could provide an answer using the core form.
I would like to know why I need to use a form, so I would appreciate your guidance.
The FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification class is defined in the Concrete\Core\Express\Entry\Notifier\Notification namespace: see this line.
So, its full name is
Concrete\Core\Express\Entry\Notifier\Notification\FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification
When you want to use that class, you have two alternatives:
new \Concrete\Core\Express\Entry\Notifier\Notification\FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification(...);
FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification as a shorthand of that long name:// At the beginning of your file
use Concrete\Core\Express\Entry\Notifier\Notification\FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification;
// Then you can write
new FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification(...);
In any case, when you want to create a Concrete class, it’s better to create it with app(): that way you don’t have to pass the class constructor all the parameters it requires, but only the needed ones.
For example, in your case I’d write:
// At the beginning of your file
use Concrete\Core\Express\Entry\Notifier\Notification\FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification;
// Then you can write
$notifications = [
$this->app->make(FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification::class, ['blockController' => $this]),
];
Thank you for your guidance.
I’m not very knowledgeable about this, so I don’t understand what you’re saying.
I apologize.
This site isn’t newly created, so I’ll try installing ConcreteCMS 9.4.8 from scratch.
I’ll let you know the results.
Thank you for your understanding.
The error was not one of the files of the standard ConcreteCMS: it was in the custom file located at /application/blocks/express_form/controller.php.
That’s the file you should fix.
Thank you for your continued support.
Upon checking, I found that you were correct.
I had customized the system to implement an automatic reply form, and it works correctly on other sites.
However, when I applied the same settings to a newly installed site with ConcreteCMS 9.4.8, an error occurred.
I believe I had previously used the settings described in a case I saw on this forum, and there had been no problems until now.
Currently, an error is being displayed.

$notifications = [new FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification($this->app, $this)];

if ($this->areFormSubmissionsStored()) {
array_unshift($notifications, new FormBlockSubmissionNotification($this->app, $this));

return $notifications;
}
}
I changed line 6 of controller.php from
use Application\Express\Entry\Notifier\Notification\FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification;
to use Concrete\Core\Express\Entry\Notifier\Notification\FormBlockSubmissionEmailNotification;
The error disappeared, but I’m not receiving any email replies.
