Contact Form
- Uses FormSubmit.co (
https://formsubmit.co/contact@timapta.org), POST, table template, no captcha. - Activation required: the first real submission triggers a confirmation email to
contact@timapta.org. Someone must click the link once to activate the endpoint. - Alternative (unused): native mailto link in footer.
PTA Functionality Research (summary)
Standard public-facing PTA sites include: mission/vision statement, membership join call-to-action, volunteer signup, fundraising drives/events, event calendar, teacher-appreciation programs, board/leadership roster, contact form. Built the foundation with mission + four capability cards + contact form; calendar, membership dues, and leadership roster are natural next additions once the board provides real names, meeting schedule, and a phone/address.
Open Items / Next Steps
- Move
contact@timapta.orgpassword into Vaultwarden - Activate FormSubmit endpoint (first submission + click confirmation)
- Add real phone number + mailing address once PTA provides them
- Add board/leadership roster + event calendar when available
- Replace placeholder logo if the PTA commissions branded artwork
Notes / Pitfalls
- app3 uses nginx (CloudPanel layout, per-user
/home/<user>/htdocsdocroots), NOT Caddy. Caddy only runs on Core (152.53.192.33), which is why the webmail redirect lives there. ptatima.orgforward required a proxied dummy A record so the Cloudflare Page Rule can intercept before routing.- MXroute domain-add requires a
_da-verify-*TXT record; the add fails until that TXT is propagated (checked viadig @1.1.1.1). - DKIM key arrives split across quoted lines from
CMD_API_DNS_CONTROL; concatenate all quoted strings into one unbroken value. - Caddyfile global block must remain first; insert new site blocks after it (anchor on
an existing
# -- ... --comment), not at line 1.
