Post Title

Hello! I’m certain I can help you out. ??

Not sure I understand which post title you are referring to. Is it the title of the page the form is displayed on or something else?

Thanks for creating a ticket!

Yes, it is the title of the page the form is displayed.

Any clue?

Hi!

You could use the af/form/email/content (documentation) filter to set your email content programmatically. If you hook into this filter I believe you should be able to use get_the_title() to get the title of the page the form was submitted from.

Was this helpful?

That’s the way!

I just not figured out how to insert post title.

<?php

function filter_email_subject( $subject, $email, $form, $fields ) {
	// Alter the subject line
	$subject = get_the_title();
    
    return $subject;
}
add_filter( 'af/form/email/subject/key=MY_FORM_KEY', 'filter_email_subject', 10, 4 );

Not working ??

Looks alright except for the last line. Did you replace “MY_FORM_KEY” with the unique key of your form? ??

You can find the key underneath the title field when editing a form in WordPress.

Yes, I have used the unique key.

function filter_email_subject( $subject, $email, $form, $fields ) {
	// Alter the subject line
	$subject = get_the_title();
    
    return $subject;
}
add_filter( 'af/form/email/subject/key=form_596e935ba3e3b', 'filter_email_subject', 10, 4 );

It sent me an email with a “no subject”. It seems not getting the title value from get_the_title().

I’m sorry. I incorrectly assumed that the global $post object would be set and that get_the_title() would work as expected but that was not the case.

This makes it a little bit harder but still quite easy if you ask me. We need to add another function which adds the current page ID to the form args before it’s rendered:

function add_page_to_args( $args, $form ) {
	$args['page_id'] = get_the_id();
	
	return $args;
}
add_filter( 'af/form/args/key=form_596e935ba3e3b', 'add_page_to_args', 10, 2 );

And then we can adjust your email subject filter a bit:
`
function filter_email_subject( $subject, $email, $form, $fields ) {
$page_id = AF()->submission[‘args’][‘page_id’];

return get_the_title( $page_id );
}
add_filter( ‘af/form/email/subject/key=form_596e935ba3e3b’, ‘filter_email_subject’, 10, 4 );
`

Now instead of picking up the current page ID from the global $post object we instead get it from the form args which we set in the first filter. I tried this code in my local environment and it worked as expected. Try it out! ??

Worked like a charm!

Very thank you for your support Fabian.

Nice plugin!
