Edit Config and controller file via panel

[aengustukel]

I was wondering if it’s possible to change data in the config and controller file through the panel , in particular the smtp information?

I want to make it easy for an admin to login and edit the smtp email and password the in the config file as well as manage where the form emails get sent to ini the controllers file.

You can use beforeSend option and there is a solution about that shared by @phm

Send Kirby emails with Gmail SMTP and OAuth2

I wanted to use a Gmail address with Kirby’s email utility, but if you use the Gmail SMTP server with standard username/password authentication for Kirby emails, you need set your Gmail account to ‘allow less secure apps’. I didn’t want to do this (there’s a reason this isn’t the default) but the alternative is to authenticate with OAuth2, which isn’t straightforward to setup. I thought I’d post the process I went through here because I couldn’t find it elsewhere. Thanks to @ahmetbora for point…

Hi Bora,

The client uses Outlook, not Gmail, so I’m not sure if this solution would work for me in this instance…

It doesn’t matter which platform you send from. The part I want to pay attention to is the beforeSend option.

With the beforeSend option, you can read an information entered from the panel and update your SMTP credentials.
