Undeclared arguments passed to ViewHelper Undkonsorten\Powermailpdf\ViewHelpers\Misc\VariablesViewHelper: mail

Question

In TYPO3 9.5 using powermail with powermailpdf I'm getting the following error when submitting a form...

Undeclared arguments passed to ViewHelper Undkonsorten\Powermailpdf\ViewHelpers\Misc\VariablesViewHelper: mail.

It appears that it's complaining about mail but I don't know what to do about it. I've included the static templates for powermail followed by powermailpdf in the main TS template and see below for the mapping part of powermailpdf. I also added {downloadLink} in the RTE area for the receiver in the powermail content element and have email addresses entered there as well for the Receiver's Email and Sender's Email.

The only place I found the word mail in the docs was on this page, but it appears I don't need to do that since I'm using a powermail version greater than 3 right?

PS: I also posted this question as an issue for powermailpdf.

Answer 1

EXT:powermailpdf is overriding this ViewHelper (Code).

config.tx_extbase {
    objects {
        In2code\Powermail\ViewHelpers\Misc\VariablesViewHelper.className = Undkonsorten\Powermailpdf\ViewHelpers\Misc\VariablesViewHelper
    }
}

But the classes seems not match (in these versions):

• https://github.com/einpraegsam/powermail/blob/6.2.0/Classes/ViewHelpers/Misc/VariablesViewHelper.php
• https://github.com/undkonsorten/powermailpdf/blob/2.4.5/Classes/ViewHelpers/Misc/VariablesViewHelper.php

So, a call of this VH (possibly also from the normal Powermail templates) will hit a non-compatible version of the ViewHelper.
