I’m not aware of any custom code that could influence the private id value. For testing, I have now temporarily deactivated all custom code snippets and custom participants database templates, with the same result: [result_link] doesn’t get replaced.

I have now created a test page, that you can use (if you want): Test PDB

If you fill out the form and send it (button “Senden”), you will get an email based on the following template:

[first_name]
[last_name]
[email]
[record_link]

My real templates have a whole text including other placeholder tags. For testing, I created a template with only the [record_link] tag. Surprisingly the [record_link] tag only works if I have the tag [private_id] in the same template.

The tag [record_link] is used in an email template. The email is automatically sent out after a new registration. All the other tags in the template work as expected. However, the tag [record_link] doesn’t get replaced. In my first message in this thread I said, it gets replaced with an empty string. Actually, it doesn’t get replaced at all.

Template:

[record_link]

Result (HTML view of the email in Thunderbird):

<p>[record_link]</p>

Surprisingly, with the following template it works!

[record_link]
[private_id]

Result (HTML view of the email in Thunderbird):

<p>https://MY_DOMAIN/profile/?pid=04N8EIQ<br>
      04N8EIQ</p>

btw: My workaround with the link https://YOUR_DOMAIN/profile/?pid=%5Bprivate_id%5D works for all users. The page /profile/ includes the shortcode [pdb_record].

In the plugin settings I have set a valid page including the shortcode [pdb_record]. In the past the tag [record_link] worked. Therefore, I thought that maybe an update caused the issue.

I have found a workaround:

https://YOUR_DOMAIN/profile/?pid=[private_id]

Version 3.0.1 fixes the issue.
Thanks @hupe13 !

PHP version 7.4.20 is used.

I had the same problem and found a similar issue on GitHub:
https://github.com/CalderaWP/Caldera-Forms/issues/3177

There one person suggested to use a code snippet as a workaround:

Worked for me ??

Yes i meant the developers of NextGen. If you have a problem i would suggest you to send them a message.

Oh thanks for that information. I think this is a really weird feature from Twitter ??

Only the last tweet from nextscripts has this big font size: https://twitter.com/BCWinzeln

Thanks for the update.
After that I also contacted the developer and he sent me the new file. Now it works. Great!

I have the same issue like you too. I hope this will be fixed soon.
