I created a new form (Using the new google forms)

It works when I try to process it manual, is there some setting that I am missing? 

I have a form running an old version of forms and also and older script that works fine but the new script does not. I read this solution: 

"To have the emails sent automatically you have to set up the trigger.

The explanation of to set up the trigger should be on the FormEmailer sheet (in your spreadsheet), but due to a bug on Google's API, they're not showing.
To see them, please select this cluster of merged cells on your sheet (starting on cell A5) and pick "break apart" from the toolbar.
They should be merged only horizontally, but due to the bug it was all merged.

Henrique G. Abreu"



That is not the case anymore and that does not work for me.

Any suggestions??


Thanks

Hi Byll,

Have you set up the trigger? How (please describe the steps you took)? Is it the time-driven trigger as I recommend?
I haven't tested the "on form submit" trigger with the new forms yet, so I'm not sure it works that way, but the time-driven trigger surely will.

The break-apart issue has been solved by Google indeed, but it has nothing to do with this. It was just to show the instructions.

Just found this tool today and setup it up on a spreadsheet.  Thank you!!  I thought I could follow up on one point.  I did try setting up a few different trigger configurations for "On form submit."  However it did not work.
