Add Form fields to notification email

Any info would be appreciated..

Thanks

Same issue. I’d love a solution to this

Hi Terry

I eventually stumbled upon a solution and a bit trial and error.

In the notification email I put <p>Dear {vfb-36}.</p>
to get the persons name to pull through.

{vfb-36} is the id of my firstname field.

The only way I could find the id was to create a new field then it shows up before you save, delete the old one, reposition and go to the pub.

Assuming Jimitodd is correct, and I didn’t test but will be…

Heres how you can empirically determine the field id.

Use phpMyAdmin from your cpanel to look into the database. Locate the VFB Fields table, named wp_visual_form_builder_fields (note: the wp_ prefix is the prefix I chose for my DB tables prefix on initial build, yours may be different).

Once there you’ll notice there is a form_id column. Sort or filter to see the field list for the form id you’re working out.

Look through the field key until you find the field label you used in the form designer, then note the field_id for that field.

Now you can use {vfb-##} to display the desired field.

Thank you Edtorrey and Jimitodd. I’ll give that a try and let you know if it works ??
