Fields without labels shown as field type in notification emails

Hello there @jameskoussertari,

hope you’re doing well and thanks for reaching us! ??

I understand the point here, it seems that placeholders won’t be a safe choice though, as these are not required fields, like field label, that’s why the labels are being used in the emails.

Unfortunately, this can be achieved by building manually the email content, which will also get you the form fields by label (and sorted by type).

Perhaps a solution would be to display the placeholders when there are no labels present.

This would probably make more sense, so I’ve shared it with our developers. I’ll keep you posted here about any development on this.

Warm regards,
Dimitris

Hello there @jameskoussertari,

I had some feedback from our developers and it seems that you can use placeholders by using the following snippet in the functions.php file of your child theme or in a MU plugin.

add_filter( 'forminator_custom_form_submit_field_data', function( $field_data_array, $form_id ){

    foreach ( $field_data_array as $key => $field ) {

        if ( '' == $field['value'] ) {
            $_field = Forminator_API::get_form_field( $form_id, $field['name'] );
            $field_data_array[$key]['value'] = isset( $_field['placeholder'] ) ? $_field['placeholder'] : '';
        }

    }

    return $field_data_array;

}, 20, 2 );

Please do let me know if further assistance is required here.
Warm regards,
