Displaying incorrect information in backend

  • Thanks for the great plugin!

    We’ve installed and activated Flamingo. We filled out our form and received an email that had all the information correctly formatted in it, including the subject and from that we specified.

    However, when we go to Inbound Messages in the backend, the subject is the classic “[your-subject]” and the from field is “[your-name] <[your-email]>”.

    In the form, it is specified as
    subject: RSVP for Lorem Ipsum Dolor Sit Amet
    from: [organization] <[email]>

    CF7 is up-to-date.

    Thanks in advance!

    Bump.

    Same here

    There is an easy fix.

    1. Open your wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/modules/flamingo.php
    2. Go to line #112:
    $template = sprintf( '[your-%s]', $field );
    3. Change it to:
    $template = sprintf( '[%s]', $field );
    4. Now it’s fixed!

    Rubyroid,

    That just changed the subject to [subject] and the from to [name] <[email]>.

    halnavel, what names do you use for the form fields in CF7? Is it “name”, “subject”, “email”, etc. or something else? Could you attach a screenshot?

    at the bottom of your contact form, under additional settings:

    flamingo_email: [email]
    flamingo_name: [organization]
    flamingo_subject: RSVP for Lorem Ipsum Dolor Sit Amet

    now you will have your arbitrarily named contact form fields show up under flamingo’s fixed fields
