Quiz response contained in email?

ciao @kiwikirsch

if you create a custom quiz with [text quiz …] you need to use [quiz] in the mail template

?[text quiz …] […] did place the question into the answer box instead of above?

the “text” altered the entire appearance of the quiz itself. i confess to not have tried its further functionality after i saw this, as it didn’t accord to what i wanted it to look :/

@kiwikirsch, maybe I explained it wrong, but I meant to insert [quiz] in the mail template (the second tab) to receive the user’s choice by mail

aah! i’ll try that!! i had tried to (wrongly?) observe/figure what would be required in the mail template and thought [your-quiz] would be it. i’ll try ??
__

nope. the email then just says [quiz] without using it as a variable for the content of individual quiz responses :/ tried it with “how does a gorilla ring your doorbell?|kingkong” and the email just says [quiz] instead of “kingkong”.

you are right, the tag has an option that disable the mail publishing:

In this case you would have to make your own tag (practically copying this file) but I don’t see any other way to make it easier!

good grief ??

this can be a solution?

place into functions.php ( tested only on my local env // don’t blame me )

remove_action( 'wpcf7_init', 'wpcf7_add_form_tag_quiz', 10 );
add_action( 'wpcf7_init', 'my_wpcf7_add_form_tag_quiz', 11, 0 );

function my_wpcf7_add_form_tag_quiz() {
	wpcf7_add_form_tag( 'quiz',
		'wpcf7_quiz_form_tag_handler',
		array(
			'name-attr' => true,
			'do-not-store' => true,
			'not-for-mail' => false,
		)
	);
}

awesome! i’ll try this ?? should [quiz] in the mail template then provide me the info i wanted? =D

yes! and if you want to store also on flamingo the data captured you may want to change the line 'do-not-store' => false, with "do-not-store' => true,"

i’m so embarrassed ?? what did i mess up?

?Der Absender antwortete [quiz]?

/**
 * Quiz response in mail template
 */
remove_action( 'wpcf7_init', 'wpcf7_add_form_tag_quiz', 10 );
add_action( 'wpcf7_init', 'my_wpcf7_add_form_tag_quiz', 11, 0 );

function my_wpcf7_add_form_tag_quiz() {
	wpcf7_add_form_tag( 'quiz',
		'wpcf7_quiz_form_tag_handler',
		array(
			'name-attr' => true,
			'do-not-store' => true,
			'not-for-mail' => false,
		)
	);
}

<p>Und weil Spambots keinen Humor haben:

[quiz Huhu
"Was ist rot und riecht nach blauer Farbe?|rote farbe"
"Was sitzt auf dem Baum und klebt eine Collage? Das __|uhu"
"Welcher Fisch ist der nervigste? Der __|st?r"
"Wie hei?t der Boomerang, der nicht zurückkommt?|stock"
"Wie klingelt ein Gorilla an der Tür?|king kong"
"Wie nennt man ein helles Mammut?|hellmut"
"Wieviele Liegestütz schafft Chuck Norris?|alle"]</p>

(translates to ?and because spambots lack humour:?)

i tried adding both
Der Absender antwortete [quiz]
and
Der Absender antwortete [your-quiz]
in the mail template,

but the email contained exactly those, no replies. i feel like a moron. maaan. coding, cooking, knitting and crotcheting is the only things i fail in. i make and maintain and repair my own bikes, furniture, computers, clothes, electricity, water things, i do volunteer in a repair café.. this should be so simple, yet i fail. grrr.

come on @kiwikirsch don’t worry! it’s more easier than you think!

You must use [Huhu] and not [quiz]! This is because you have given a custom name “Huhu” (and not your-quiz) to the “quiz” tag.

Please read this carefully, it’s very clear and understandable:
