Contact e-mail including summary of calculator

    Hi all,

    I use CFF to provide potential customers with a cost indication for a product I offer. However, the product cannot be sold over the Internet and is also so individual that an online calculator can only provide a rough cost indication. The final product must then be “worked out” in a personal discussion with the customer.

    I am very successful with my online calculator and attract some customers to my site. In the next step, I would like to add a contact function. This should look so that the potential customers can enter their contact information and send it together with the summary of the cost calculator by e-mail to me. As you know, CFF offers a contact function. But is it also possible to copy a complete summary of the cost calculator into the contact field (similar to the summary field of CFF)? Since users have already done the work and answered many question, it would be annoying if I don’t get these details sent (including the result = the price).

    I hope I have expressed myself clearly and thank you in advance for your answers!

    Best
    Ben

    Hello @beho83

    Thank you very much for using our plugin. The commercial distributions of the “Calculated Fields Form” plugin include the notification email feature. They allow you to configure two emails, a notification email you will receive after forms submissions and a confirmation email you can send the user if you want.

    The plugin allows you to use special tags in the content of the notification emails. For example, if you insert the <%INFO%> tag, it will be replaced with the summary of every data collected by the form. However, you can configure the content of the notification emails to include only some fields. For example, assuming you want to send only the fields fieldname1 and fieldname2 with their labels in bold and values in italic. In this hypothetical case, the content of the notification email could be:

    
<p><b><%fieldname1_label%></b>: <i><%fieldname1_value%></i></p>
<p><b><%fieldname2_label%></b>: <i><%fieldname2_value%></i></p>

    The following section in the plugin’s documentation describes the tags you can use in the notification emails:

    Best regards.
