Adding Multiple Email Recipients in Joomla Mailto Component

[basplund347]

You'll have to forgive me because I am NOT a php expert by any means (most of it confuses me, lol). But, I'm trying to make 2 changes to Joomla's existing mailto component which allows you to email links to the site to others. 1) Right now it only allows you to enter 1 email recipient when you're sending them a link to your profile. I need the user to be able to enter multiple email addresses if they choose (typically separated by a comma/space, but that isn't working). 2) When it sends the email to the recipient, it includes a url link to that user's profile. But, I'd like it to send a small icon of their profile avatar in place of the blue url link. So, when the recipient opens the email, they see the text and a picture of the user. When they click the picture, it goes to that user's profile. 

 

Any immediate help is appreciated!!!

 

This is the current code of the basic mailto component (controller.php):
